Parallelism Control and Setting for Press Brake Ram

Ensuring the parallelism of the ram in a press brake is crucial for achieving precise and consistent bends in sheet metal. The parallelism is typically controlled by a solid anti-torsion bar linked to both side oil cylinders. Here is a detailed guide on how to control and set the parallelism of the ram:

Factory Calibration

The top ram of the press brake is calibrated parallel to the V-die at the factory. However, over time and with usage, re-calibration may become necessary to maintain accuracy.

Steps for Re-Calibration

  1. Locate the Torsion Bar Linkage:
    • Find the torsion bar linkage connected to the top ram on the rear (left side) of the machine.
  2. Loosen the Screw:
    • Identify the screw (M8/M10) on the torsion bar.
    • Loosen this screw to allow for adjustment.
  3. Adjust the Torsion Bar:
    • Use the appropriate spanners to turn the outer flat piece by 15° to 30°.
    • You can turn it either clockwise or anti-clockwise, which will rotate the eccentric pin inside.
  4. Tighten the Screw:
    • After making the adjustment, tighten the screw (M8/M10) securely.
  5. Check Parallelism:
    • Perform a test bend to check the parallelism of the top ram.
    • If the ram is still not parallel, repeat the adjustment process.
  6. Repeat if Necessary:
    • Continue the procedure until the desired accuracy is achieved.

Tips for Accurate Adjustment

  • Use Precision Tools: Ensure you are using calibrated tools for measurement and adjustment to maintain high precision.
  • Perform Multiple Test Bends: It may take several test bends to achieve perfect parallelism. Be patient and make small adjustments.

Safety Ensuring and Press Brake Machine Main Construction

Introdução

This section provides guidelines for ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment when operating a press brake machine. While it is tailored to specific requirements, it can also serve as a reference for other machines.

Safety Equipment

To ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, various safety mechanisms have been integrated into the press brake machine. Operators must not alter, remove, or disable any safety equipment.

Light Beam/Laser Beam

The machine can be equipped with a light beam or laser beam, depending on customer requirements. These beams form a light curtain that, when interfered with, activates the safety module. This prevents the ram from moving downwards, thereby protecting the operator from potential injury.

Safety Grid

A safety grid is installed at the side and back of the machine to keep operators away from hazardous areas. This grid is connected to the electrical system via a safety switch. When the safety grid is opened, the electrical system is activated, rendering the machine inoperable.

Emergency Stop

Emergency stop buttons are strategically located at the handle control station and the hanging control station. In the event of an operational error or any other accident, pressing the emergency stop button will immediately halt all machine actions.

Sistema hidráulico

The hydraulic system is a critical component of the press brake machine. The falling of the ram poses a significant danger, which is mitigated by the inclusion of a safety lifting valve. The valve cores of both the exchange valve and the safety lifting valve are monitored. If any abnormality is detected in the valve cores, the monitoring signal will stop the electrical system to prevent injury from the falling ram. If the valve cores cannot be reset, the valve should be inspected immediately.

Solução de problemas

Normal operation of the press brake machine is safe when all safety protocols are followed. However, in the event of unusual accidents or during maintenance and repair, the following steps should be taken:

  1. Lock the safety grid.
  2. Push the emergency stop button located inside the uprights.
  3. Seek professional assistance.

If any body part becomes clamped by the punch or sheet, follow these steps:

  1. Push the emergency stop button.
  2. Inspect the situation carefully.
  3. Restart the machine only after ensuring it is safe to do so.
  4. Switch the operating mode to the “inch” position.
  5. Push the handle return button to retract the ram and free the clamped parts.
