Setting the Sensor Stop Type
When you select a sensor type, the Sensor Stop Type screen displays, Figure 6-30. The Sensor Stop
Type screen allows you to specify how the press is to be stopped when the die protection sensor
detects a fault.
Figure 6-30. Sensor Stop Type Screen
Select one of three Stop Type settings for the sensor: emergency stop, top stop, or smart stop,
described below.
•
Emergency Stop (E-Stop):
SmartPAC PRO stops the press as soon as a sensor fault is detected.
You should use this setting for any die-threatening event that occurs before the critical angle, the
point in the crankshaft rotation after which a stop signal to the press cannot prevent the die from
closing. A typical Emergency Stop application is a sensor that monitors part ejection on the
upstroke. Setting this sensor to an Emergency Stop ensures that the ram will stop on the next
stroke before the die closes.
•
Top Stop:
SmartPAC PRO stops the press at the top of its stroke after a sensor fault is detected.
You should use this setting for events that do not threaten the die or that occur between the
critical angle and bottom dead center (BDC). A typical Top Stop application is a sensor that
monitors a feed like a roll feed that takes place well into the downstroke. Setting this sensor to a
Top Stop ensures that the press does not stick on the bottom as a result of a stop signal being sent
just as the ram is about to contact the material.
•
Smart Stop
: SmartPAC PRO performs either a Top Stop or Emergency Stop depending on the
angle at which the sensor fault is detected. SmartPAC PRO top-stops the press if the fault is
detected after the critical angle but before bottom dead center (BDC). If the fault is detected after
BDC but before the critical angle, SmartPAC PRO performs an emergency stop. A typical Smart
Stop application is a sensor that monitors short feeds, which can occur either before or after the
critical angle. When you select SMART STOP as the stop type, you must specify the critical
angle.
