In manual mode position a piece of material which is longer than the shuttle full stroke length
(i.e.. M-16A=32.500") and close the front VISE. Simultaneously depress "FWD" & "REV" buttons on the
PLC to access parameters. A password is required at this point which can be obtained from Hyd-Mech
Service Department.
SCREEN WILL DISPLAY:
With the cursor @ shown position (as illustrated above) press enter. The cycle start button
will then start to flash & "0" will change to "1" indication self-calibration mode. Start the blade and the
trim cut will be made. After the trim cut is made the head will rise, the shuttle will retract fully in slow,
clamp the material and come fully forward in slow to the home position and make a cut. After the cut is
complete "1" will change back to "0". Measure the cut part length.
Cursor down to ACT.LTH. and enter length of cut part plus the actual kerf value. Then exit
the parameters by toggling the AUTO/MAN button or put the front VISE in the hold position (the cycle
start button will stop flashing). The ENC.RES. & full stroke values will now automatically be calculated
and programmed by the PLC.
*NOTE: When first entering the parameters screen if not running the self
calibration do not use the enter key but use the cursor keys to scroll
through the parameters.
To check length control consistency:
1) Perform test cuts of three different lengths (i.e. 6", 12", 20") and measure as accurately as
possible.
2) If the measurements indicate a linear problem (measured length error increases as the
programmed length increases), the ACTUAL LENGTH value will have to be adjusted.
3) The Length Calibration Procedure MUST be performed to allow a change to the ACTUAL
LENGTH parameter. This may be done with material in the machine (cut and measure
material length) or with no material in the machine (let machine complete the calibration
cycle, then enter new value).
To adjust ACTUAL LENGTH parameter:
- If part length error gets longer as the programmed length increases; ACTUAL LENGTH value
should be increased.
- If part length error gets shorter as the programmed length increases; ACTUAL LENGTH value
should be decreased.
- Make small adjustments at a time (i.e. .020" - .030") and recheck with test cuts.
EXAMPLE: If part length error gets longer as programmed length increases:
Existing ACT.LTH.=33.070"
Change ACT.LTH. to 33.070 - .020 = 33.050"
