1.Start up

1.1 Checking

Please carefully check if there is any damage or collision to the

equipment.

1.2 Wiring

Connect the external power supply correctly, and ensure that the wiring
is correct and error free, including the power line, magnetic grating
signal line, and foot pedal line.

1.3 Install

1.3.1 Magnetic scale：The same model as the magnetic grating ruler of the bending
machine can be directly connected in parallel, and a bracket connection needs to be
made for different models.

Delta 1.0 1
1.3.1 Follower car：The edge of the follower car platform is within a range
of 226-230mm from the center of the press brake mold, and the platform
surface is 1-3mm lower than the lower mold of the bending machine. (Single
axis handwheel adjustment, dual axis system setting)

1.4 Power on

Turn on the power switch of the follower car. Subsequently, the touch screen will
display normally. When the welcome interface appears, it indicates that the system
has started up normally. At this time, you can press the device image to enter the
operation interface.

2.Counting direction proofreading

The bending machine and the follower car are started simultaneously, and the sliding
block of the bending machine is operated to move downwards. At this time, the

Delta 1.0 2
number displayed under the "bending machine tool position" of the follower car
should increase. If there is a decrease, the electrical cabinet should be opened. Find
the block shown in Figure 1-2, exchange the wire numbers X0.2 and X0.3 above, and
check again.

the Z-axis;
 Z-axis return to origin at low speed:The speed at which the Z-axis reaches the
specified position after searching for a reference point;
Z-axis origin offset:When the displayed position on the Z-axis is inconsistent with
the actual position, correct the position;
Z-axis manual acceleration and deceleration:In manual mode, Z-axis acceleration
and deceleration time;
 Z-axis positive limit:During normal operation, limit the highest position of the
R-axis;
Z-axis negative limit:During normal operation, limit the lowest position of the
R-axis;

 :In automatic mode, when the bending machine slider stops, the
follower car also stops. After closing, the follow-up car receives a clamping point
signal and runs to the target value without being affected by the slider stop.

4.Operate

4.1 origin

The bending machine and the follower car start up simultaneously, operate the
bending machine back to the reference point, and keep the bending machine at the

origin position. The follower car is in manual mode on the "main screen" ，

Press and hold the (long press for 1 second) bending machine slider

position return to zero and R/Z axis return to zero buttons，At this

time, the position of the bending machine slider 、

The R-axis and Z-axis display values have changed to

0.
Note: The spindle zeroing operation can only be performed after the bending
machine is first turned on and the parameter search is completed.

4.2 Calibration and Procedures

4.2.1Operate the bending machine to the clamping point position and maintain
it at the clamping point position (the bending angle of the bending machine is set to
180 degrees, the holding time is set to 5 seconds, and the bending machine is
operated and stopped at the clamping point), and follower car in manual mode on

the "main screen". ，Press and hold for 1 second

to correct the clamping point, and the displayed value after correction will be the

Delta 1.0 10
same as the position value of the bending machine slider at this time.

4.2.2Operate the bending machine to the clamping point position and maintain
it at the clamping point position (the bending angle of the bending machine is set to
90 degrees, the holding time is set to 5 seconds, and the bending machine is
operated and stopped at the clamping point). the manual mode of the follower car

on the "main interface" ，Press and hold for 1

second to calibrate the end point of the bending machine. After calibration, the
displayed value will be the same as the position value of the bending machine slider
at this time.

4.2.3 Bending machine speed setting: Simultaneously set the

bending speed of the bending machine and the follower car. It is recommended to
set the bending machine and follower car speeds below 5mm/s.

4.2.4 ：The bending angle and platform position

are set. The bending angle is the forming angle of the bent workpiece, and the
bending position is the platform height position (used when the bending machine
uses combination molds or reverse cutting to avoid collision).

4.2.5 ：Multi step programming is used when the

workpiece has multiple angles or when using a combination mold, and the program
can also be saved and called.

4.3 Automatic

Return the bending machine to the top dead center position and switch

Delta 1.0 11
to automatic mode with the follower car .At this point, control the
bending machine to start bending, and when it reaches the clamping point position,
the follower car starts to follow. When the bending end point is reached, the follower
car reaches the follow-up position. In general, the follower car start will be slower
than the flipping of the bent sheet metal,，At this time, the follower car switches to

automatic mode Modify clamping point values ：

Reduce the current value by 0.8-1 and try again to achieve a follow-up effect.

5.Points for attention

1、When working , personnel are prohibited from standing behind.

2 、 When working , personnel are prohibited from opening the equipment and

entering all parts of the body inside the equipment.

3 、 When changing the program, please return the bending machine to the top

dead center and switch to manual mode with the follower car. .

4 、 In automatic mode , if the follower car, does not follow , or if the

follow-up position or return position is not in place,Please switch to manual mode

and contact our after-sales service personnel in a timely manner to resolve

the issue and resume production.
