Operation 4-9
There are four different ways to operate the press in Inch mode:
• Top-stop in Inch
• Top-stop Bypass
• Micro-inch
• Dead Motor Inch
Top-stop in Inch
Top-stop in Inch is the default Inch mode. To run the press in Top-stop in Inch, do the
following:
1. To move the ram a short distance, press and hold both Run/Inch palm buttons on the
Operator Station at the same time, releasing them when the ram has reached the desired
point in the stroke.
The ram moves only as long as both Run/Inch buttons are depressed. Releasing one of the
buttons stops the ram immediately.
2. Repeat the previous step to continue “inching” the ram.
3. To move the ram to Top-stop, press and hold both Run/Inch palm buttons until the ram
comes to a stop at the top of the stroke.
4. To initiate another stroke, release the Run/Inch buttons, then press and hold them until the
ram again comes to rest at the Top-stop position.
Top-stop Bypass (Top-stop in Inch Disabled)
Top-stop in Inch can be disabled so that the ram continues to cycle, without coming to a
Top-stop, as long as the Run/Inch buttons on the Operator Station are depressed. In this
alternative Inch mode, called Top-stop Bypass, the ram stops only when one or both buttons
are released.
To disable Top-stop in Inch, refer to Disabling Top-stop in Inch, page 2-35.
If you are running the press in One-hand mode, you need to depress the left Run/Inch
button only.
The ram will also stop if the light curtain is blocked during the non-muted portion of the
stroke, or if a system fault is detected.
When “inching” the press, you may not notice when the ram top-stops.
