Metal Stamping Press Load Sensing and Control Matt De Kam
Objective • Sense and control the load of a metal stamping press. • What factors contribute to loading? • What methods can be used to sense the load? • How can this information be integrated into the control system?
The Press • 60 ton capacity • Unique Drive Train
Contributing Factors • Working metal properties • Cutting clearance • Tool sharpness • Cutting shear • Ram velocity
Load Sensing Methods • Strain Gauges • Load Cells • Piezoelectric Transducers
Control System Options • Digital Readout • Load Limit Switch • SPC Tracking • Variable Velocity Servo Press
Simulations • Typical Load Signal
Simulations • Load limit switch
Simulations • Variable velocity servo press
Simulations • Variable velocity servo press
