With the continuous expansion of the press brake market, the ESA system from Italy has gradually entered your field of vision. Today, I will introduce the tutorial on using the CNC electro-hydraulic press brake equipped with the ESA S860/S875 control system. I hope to help everyone.
Part 1: Fueling and Wiring
- Add anti-wear hydraulic oil to the fuel tank;
- Connect to the power supply before first use;
- Turn on the main gate of the power supply;
- Turn on the power switch of the machine;
- Turn on the power switch, loosen the emergency stop, and start the oil pump;
Part 2: Daily boot steps
- Turn on the power switch of the machine;
- Turn on the power switch, loosen the emergency stop, and start the oil pump;
- Wait for the ESA S860 system to start fully;
- Wait for the EsaBend software to start;
- Click the "Edit" button;
- Under the "Manual Mode" page, find the reference point;
- Test the operation of the X-axis;
- Test the operation of the R axis;
- Test the operation of the Z1 axis;
- Test the operation of the Z2 axis;
- Test the operation of the A1 axis (i.e., the V axis);
- Under the "Die List" page, check the die parameters;
- The die data corresponds to the actual;
Part 3: Programming numerical control
- Under the "Program List" page, add a new numerical program;
- Input sheet width;
- Input sheet thickness;
- Select material;
- Select upper and lower dies;
- Enter the step length and bending angle;
- Add the second work step;
- Enter the step length and bending angle again;
- Enter "Program Name" and save;
- Enter the "Auto Mode" page and start bending;
Part 4: Bending Workpiece
- Put the board, the board is close to the block finger;
- Press the pedal;
- Complete the first work step;
- Press the pedal;
- Complete the second work step;
Part 5: Measurement and Calibration
- Measure the length of the first step;
- Measure the length of the second step;
- Use an angle ruler to measure the bending angle in two positions, left and right;
Treatment method when the value is found to have an error:
- Enter the correction parameters for the corresponding axis;
- Put the board again;
- Measure again;
- The detection angle value is correct, and the calibration is completed.
Part 6: Graphics Programming and 3D Simulation Bending
Graphics programming
- Under the "Program List" page, add a new graphic program;
- Input sheet width;
- Input sheet thickness;
- Select material;
- Select upper and lower dies;
- After confirmation, enter the "Edit" page;
- Use graphics to generate the final bending program;
- Under the "Edit" page, click "Calculate";
- Select the "Optimize" button;
- Select the "Simulation" button and keep clicking the "Continue" button until the workpiece is completed;
3D simulation bending
- Under the "Automatic Mode" page, click the icon in the lower right corner;
- Select "Extrusion Viewer";
- Select "First Bend";
- Click the "Start" button;
Part 7: Shut down
- Press the pedal switch to make the upper mold dock the lower mold;
- Press the emergency stop button;
- Close the EAS control software and save the data;
- Turn off the main power switch;
