Press Brakes Specifications

Help with Press Brakes specifications:

Technology

	Press Technology - Drive / Actuation
	Your choices are...
	Air / Pneumatic		The press is driven or powered by a pneumatic cylinder.
	Hydraulic		The press is driven or powered by a hydraulic cylinder. Hydraulic presses can generate extremely high forces to form metals or other materials.
	Hydro-mechanical		Hydro-mechanical presses are driven by a hydraulic cylinder or hydraulic motor.
	Mechanical		The press is driven by a rotary motor through a screw, toggle, lever, or other mechanism.
	Servo (Driven / Control)		The press or machine is servo-controlled or directly driven by a servo motor.
	Manual		The press is driven or powered by hand, or with manual force that is magnified with screw, lever, or other mechanism.
	Other		Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary technologies.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.

Performance Specifications

	Capacity / Operating Force:		The operating press load required to cut or form a part or rivet assembly during production. The rated capacity of a press is the ton pressure, which the slide or ram will safely exert at the bottom of the stroke while working within the range of the press. In a mechanical press, the capacity is determined by the bending capacity of the main shaft (crank, toggle, or eccentric shaft).
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Stroke:		Stroke is the ram travel from top dead center (TDC) to bottom dead center (BDC).
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Stroke Speed:		Stroke speed is the linear speed of the slide or ram during pressing or ram advancement steps.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.

Dimensional Specifications

	Throat:		Throat is the distance from the centerline of the ram to the back frame in a gap frame, C frame, or similar press type.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Open Height:		Daylight is the distance in the open position between the ram and the table or bolster plate of a press. In the case of a multi-daylight press, daylight is the distance between adjacent platens.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
	Sheet / Working Length:		The sheet length (largest dimension, X) or working distance from right to left (R to L) that can be punched, formed or converted by the machine.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.

Special Features

	Automation / Control:
	Your choices are...
	Manual (Footswitch / Pendant / Pushbutton)		The press is controlled manually through an operator interface device such as a footswitch, pendant, or push-button controls.
	Automatic / Indexing		The press or forming machine automatically loads parts into the system and operates without operator intervention. The machine changes or adjusts tooling and other parameters, such as speed or applied load, in a pre-programmed manner.
	CNC Control		A CNC controller is used to program and perform a sequence of operations on the press.
	PLC Controller		A PLC controller is used to program and perform a sequence of operations on the press.
	Windows® / PC Control		The press or forming machine is controlled or programmed through a PC interface.
	Other		Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary automation or control technology.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
