Configuration of the press system without its machine
base, means that installation is somewhat different from a
machine base equipped press.
There are three primary differences :
1)
Securing the Base Flange
- In this case, the base flange
will have to be secured to a rigid, level stationary structure.
We recommend using socket-head cap screws M12 -1.75
with a minimum length of 40 mm for securing the flange
to the supporting structure. We recommend a minimum of
1 inch (25.4 mm) full thread engagement of the cap screws
into the supporting structure. Depending upon the thickness
and material of the supporting structure, longer screws and/
or additional hardware may be required.
A full scale flange template is provided for locating and
drilling holes in the supporting structure. The template is
Figure 3-20 on the next page.
2)
Operate and E-STOP Signals
- Because there is no
machine base as the press is equipped in its standard con-
figuration, operate and emergency stop signals will not be
generated by the optical switches and the E-STOP/Abort
switch that are parts of the standard press base.
These signals will be generated by user-supplied external
sources.
Connect a Dukane cable - Part Number 200-1546-xxM
- from the J6 connector on the System I/O Panel to user-
supplied automation equipment.
See
Automation System
for more information about the
user-supplied requirements for this connection on the next
