Press safety controls

We'll supply a new safety control system for your press!

The long service life of presses in practice generally only applies to the mechanical parts. The press control is subject both to wear and tear, and changes in safety requirements.

For economic reasons, it often appears sensible in this connection to replace an ageing control system with a modern safety control. Under no circumstances may an old contactor control used with conventional safety relays be replaced by a standard SPC, as presses come under safety category 4.

The Pilz safety controls we have installed monitor and control (for example via light barriers or light curtains) access to the press area and guarantee safe cut-off in the event of risk. We integrate tried and tested software components for the control of the press functions, such as cam controller or press safety value. The safety component of the control system works on a diverse multi-channel basis. Safety-oriented units are controlled via multichannel bus, while standard units use single-channel bus.

We offer you a complete solution from a single source precisely tailored to your needs. It contains the hardware and software, as well as the commissioning including CE-certification.

Our systems have proven themselves partly through their high safety standards in many well-known companies in the auto industry.

 

Press mechanization

We'll supply your complete press mechanization solution!

The type diversity required by the market also requires highly-productive and flexible presses for small batches, or press working lines with a high level of availability and low maintenance and set-up costs.

This is where blank loaders, feeder systems, gripper rails and industrial robots come in.

In this connection, both out-dated and used, and new, machines and installations can be of use.

A more affordable alternative is often a combination of aged and used, and partly new, machines and systems.

Special installations, such as weld seam detection systems, sheet thickness checking or industrial robots we source from market-leading manufacturers and integrate their hardware and software technology into the overall system.

In view of component properties and handling, almost every mechanization system requires a customized solution.

Since presses and tools involve capital-intensive machines and installations, it is important that productivity and efficiency are optimized through appropriate automation and mechanization systems.

We can offer you a complete solution from a single source precisely tailored to your needs. It includes a machine construction, the integration of special machines/installations and central control system including SPC and visualization (see screenshot).

Our systems have proven themselves partly through their short cycle times and high process stability in many well-known companies in the auto industry.
