Resolver Based 16 Station Die Protection in PressCam 8 11 Programmable Switches (PLS) The Ultimate is the most feature intensive air clutch punch press control available. The control conforms to all current OSHA and ANSI standards for control reliability and component monitoring. System incorporates the PressCam 8 for complete punch press synchronization and flexibility for all peripheral punch press signaling needs such as feeds, die protection, lubrication, blow-offs, etc. All of the electrical timing adjustments for the complete press operation are done at the floor level by the operator. he PressCam 8 system also has a large job memory of 75. This gives the control the ability to remember 75 complete different jobs or die set-ups at the press. The memory concept at the press is an excellent feature due to the tremendous time saved during set-ups of various operations. Additional time is saved by being able to adjust or "fine tune" the stamping process while the press is running, which is an aid in maximizing press utilization.

Standard Features

• Control Panel 3200 conforms to all current OSHA and ANSI standards.
• 11 cam programmable limit switch.
• Dual redundant outputs for all faults such as brake monitor, motion detector, etc.
• Built-in motion detector with fast response and dual speed limits.
• Brake Monitor - Time-based brake monitor with a digital display of both the brakes stopping time and the brake fault limit set points in milliseconds. System also displays a brake fault when stopping times are exceeded.
• Refer toPressCam8 for specifics
• Built-in tachometer (SPM) and crank shaft angle in degrees with simultaneous digital display.
• 4 Built-in counters: stroke, batch, quality and part.
• Built-in timers, adjustable from 1 ms to 10 seconds.
• 16 station die protection system (self-contained cyclic functions and 2 static functions), built-in with separate timing windows for each station based on the absolute position of the crank-shaft. All the die protection timing windows are retained in the memory until the next time a particular die is set-up and run. Die protection timing windows can also be adjusted while the press is in motion.
• All the functions of the system that are timed or signaled through the PressCam system can be retained in memory for 150 different die set-ups.
• All the operator timing adjustments are done at the floor level which eliminates the need for electricians to adjust rotary cam switches and microswitches.
• System self-diagnostics.
• Program security from tampering
  1. Keyed selector switch for supervisory control.
  2. Authorized code for program entry.
• Accuracy +/- 1 for all timing circuits and can be "fine tuned" while the press is cycling.
• Eases the timing of all types of feeding equipment, AC and DC servo feeds and air feeds.
• Very easy to program and use.
• System designed specifically for the metal stamping/metal forming industry.
• Main power disconnect and magnetic motor starters can be housed in the same control panel.
• Tonnage Monitoring optional.
