Diagnosis CNC Press Brake Controller

Sep 07, 2020

CNC Press brake are the most common sheet metal working machinery, it can be bending or forming metal material to one shape or degree with some fixed bending tooling system, so clean press brake tooling&seating press brake tooling system properly are very important for all kinds of press brake operator or owner.

When you had used one cnc press brakes, it maybe met new issue which never had before, run into problems that you can’t figure it out, try restarting your machine. Just like a computer that locks up and has to be shut down to clear out a problem, “rebooting” your press brake is sometimes necessary. Shut the machine’s power completely off (the whole press brake and not just the control), let it stay off for 30 seconds to drain power from all circuits, then restart your press brake. It’s not the most common issue, but it is the easiest fix for a machine, so before you call a press brake repair engineer that’s one of the first things to check.

A basic trouble-shooting technique for a CNC Y1/Y2 press brake having problems running a new bending program is to try the machine with an old bending program. We’ve known operators who decide that there must be a problem with a press brake when all of a sudden something isn’t working right with a new bending program, yet the day before it was running just fine with a different program. If this happens to you, before you contact press brake engineers, go back to a old bending program that you already worded and see how it performs. If it is still working very well, then new issues probably created in the new bending programs writing with some wrong or one improper bending points. You need to go back and go through and double-check what you’ve programmed and setting in the new bending cycles. This is a very common issue and simple checking way, new program should be working well in correct new setting bending cycles.

Now, more and more CNC press brakes are staandard coming with full touch screen controller, 2D&3D graphical press brake bending controller with offline software are all available; the cleanliness of the bending screen can affect press brake control’s bending performance. You may having problems when using it or running in one bending cycles ad bending screen not clean or need recalibrate, then you can fix the basic problesm . All press brake operators  have natural oil in their fingers and get dirty hands while loading a press brake or handling with metal material,  all of that can leave a film on their press brake control. You can avoid problems by regularly cleaning your full touch screen controller before starting bending or finishing one bending shift, it will be helps for your cnc press brake accurate bending performance.
