Mute-Out Packages

 

Operational Description (Package #130)
The Mute-Out Package #130 has been designed to allow the SuperLight VI infrared light curtain to be muted out or by passed during the non-hazardous portion of the machine cycle. The mute out function is actuated by the No. 301 limit switch or the No. 300 adjustable calibrated switch actuator when the die is within 1/4" of the pinch point and continues until the ram returns to top stop. At this point the infrared light curtain reactivates and gives protection during the hazardous portion of the downstroke.

Punch Presses - Reference Package #130 PP
Package #130PP enhances productivity on punch presses because parts can be loaded or unloaded during the non hazardous upstroke or to be used when parts are ejected through the light curtain on the upstroke. Always submit machine electrical schematic to assure proper point of interface. Specify air clutch or hydraulic machine application.

Press Brakes - Reference Package #130 PB
Package #130PB interfaces directly on air clutch and hydraulic press brakes when these machines have control reliability and component monitoring. The mute out function is activated by the calibrated switch actuator No. 300 and gives the operator the capability to work with small parts and workpieces that have flanges. Always submit machine electrical schematic to assure proper point of interface. Specify air clutch or hydraulic machine application. Add suffix AC for air clutch press brake or suffix HV for hydraulic press brake.

Select-O-Stop (Option for Pkg. #130PB)
Select-O-Stop is an option for the Pkg. #130PB package. Select-O-Stop is a keyed function (on/off) that is activated by the calibrated switch actuator mounted on the side of the ram. Select-O-Stop will allow the operator to bring the ram down at a fast speed to a preset postion which is 1/4" above the material to be formed. At this point the ram will stop and then light curtain mute out will begin. The Select-O-Stop function is ideal for small part forming or realignment of the work piece. Add suffix SOS to Pkg. #130PB for this feature.
