be confused with the parameter ‘X-safety’ of each die.
This parameter is especially useful when several dies of different sizes are placed on the
machine. In that situation, this intermediate X-value should be larger than the safety zone
of the largest die that is installed.
7.j
When the backgauge has to move to a different Z-position, it is checked whether the cur-
rent X-position is safe. We can distinguish the following situations:
• Old X-axis position as well as new position outside the zone: X- and Z-axis movements happen at the
same time, no change.
• Old X-axis position outside, new position inside the zone: backgauge is positioned on Z-axes first, the
X-movement starts when the Z-axes are in position.
• Old X-axis position inside, new position outside the zone: backgauge starts along X-axis, Z-movement
is started when X-axis is outside the zone.
• Old X-axis position as well as new position inside the zone: backgauge moves to the intermediate X-
axis position, then the Z-movement is started. When the Z-axes are in position the X-movement is
started to move the backgauge to its new position (see figure 8.j.).
Intermediate R for X-movement . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .RS=
Temporary position for the R-axis, to avoid collision as a result of movement of the X-
axis. The value 0 disables this functionality. When programmed not equal to zero this
position will be active when the X-axis has to move inside the safety zone of the die.
7.k
The sequence will be as follows:
• The R-axis is moved to the intermediate position;
• then the X-axis is moved to its position;
• finally the R-axis is moved to its position.
