Special function (SFM)


The special functions board (SFM) serves to control the Autotrim table. In connection with the CP1 board
the program cycle provides an automatic activation of the solenoid valves for the pneumatic cylinder of the
front table.
On machines without Autotrim facility, this function must be turned off via switch S1 on the SFM board.
The board carries also eight relays which are energized for 0.5 seconds, each, when the external special
functions 1 - 8 are executed. The potential free contacts of these relays allow to synchronize the peripheral
equipments and the cutting sequence.
The maximum tolerable load for the contacts is 10 watts, 48 V.
Various inputs and outputs of the board allow for an adjustment of the control system to non-standard
special versions.

Optional Autotrim 80
This optional equipment allows to handle waste cuts up to a max. 80 mm.
In order to make this function possible, the mechanical construction of the Autotrim table must be widely
reworked. The extended travel of the table, the blowing air device for removing cutting waste from the knife
bar (stripper flap is dropped) and the movable right-hand side gauge have caused modifications to the
pneumatic system and electrical control.
The following components of the electrical control unit are required for Autotrim 80:
1. New SFM board id. no. 020172 ( replaces obsolete version 020171 )
2. Suitable as of software versions V 6.1 - 0 V 5.3 - 0 V 4.4 - 0
The new SFM plug-in board ( 020172 ) can be used for all Autotrim machines. For this purpose, the board
has DIP switches which allow the user to select between 25 mm and 80 mm for the waste cut.
Switch position S 2 / 5
Switch position S 2 / 5

= OFF standard Autotrim ( 25 mm waste cut )


= ON = Autotrim 80
( 80 mm waste cut )

The hardware of the new SFM board has been


changed in the following way: when the opening
process of the table was interrupted, and the table
is then closed, both solenoid valves are briefly
activated in order to fill the cylinders. This enables
the Autotrim table to be started slowly and without
jerks. The time period for activating the solenoid
valves can be set on the board. Any unassigned
inputs which were only available on the board,
have been supplied to a 9-pin SUB D plug. The
software modification of the CP1 board affects
also the block program. Once Autotrim 80 is
detected, any waste cut that may have been
generated is set to 80 mm.

Retractable side gauges on EM / EMC Monitor machines

In the Monitor machine range, the 176 model was the first to introduce a new design of the hydraulically
retractable side gauges. Both directions of motion (up / down) are now controlled hydraulically. The relevant
limit positions are scanned via limit switches. On this version, the hydraulic pressure is turned off when the
gauges are lowered. Besides the mechanical and hydraulic modifications this new model requires a new
special hydraulics plug-in board.
The new board SHM 020182 replaces the previous version with id. no. 020181.
Before using this board with the older VL version, the switches and jumpers on the board need to be set
correctly.
There are three different variants:
1. Machines 115 to 155 ( Programs V 1.0 - V 6.0 )
Version with unidirectional hydraulically controlled VL cylinder. Return motion (VL up) by spring power.
The VL is retained in its bottom position by a constantly activated special hydraulic system.
When employing the new SHM board ( 020182 ) the following setting needs to be made:

1. Switch S 1
2. Switch S 2
3. Switch S 3
4. Switch S 4
5. Jumper JP 1
6. Jumper JP 2
7. Jumper JP 3

ON = VL available
ON = backgauge lock ON
ON = old VL version
ON = Cut optimization (must be turned on)

3. Machines 115 to 155 ( retrofit kit with program V 6.1 )


Version with unidirectional hydraulically controlled VL cylinder. Return motion (VL up) by spring power. By
converting the hydraulic / electrical system, the VL can also be retained in its bottom position without any
hydraulic pressure. This prevents excessive heating of the hydraulic system. The setting of switches and
jumpers on the SHM board is the same as on the 176 MON machine.

Backgauge Lock on EM / EMC Monitor machines


Description of functions:
The following solenoid valves are required for the backgauge lock function:
Y330 change-over valve (switch)
Y331 needle valve tap (clamping ON)
Y391 needle valve tap (clamping OFF)
On all the machines equipped with backgauge lock this function must be turned on with switch S 2 on the
SHM board. The functioning of individual valves is indicated by LEDs on the SHM board. (see SHM board).
When the machine is turned on, no solenoid valve of the backgauge lock is activated, but through a spring
storage element which is integrated into the backgauge lock control unit, the backgauge lock remains
activated even when the machine is switched off. With the backgauge at rest, the spring storage element
also ensures that the pressure in the hydraulic circuit of the backgauge lock will be maintained even when
the solenoid valves Y 330 and Y 331 are no longer energized.
With a volume of approx. 3 cm the spring storage element is sufficient to compensate any arising pressure
loss.
By activating the motor brake of the backgauge drive motor, the solenoid valve Y 391 is briefly turned on
and provides a direct connection with the hydraulic tank. The oil contained in the backgauge lock control
circuit flows off and the backgauge lock is relieved.
When the backgauge stops, simultaneously with the shutoff of the motor brake the change-over valve Y
330 and the needle valve tap Y 331 are briefly turned on by the CP 1 computer via the SHM board. In this
way the oil circuit of the special hydraulic system is connected with pump P2 through the changeover
valve, while the needle valve tap opens the line to the clamping cylinder at the sledge.
The backgauge lock function is automatically carried out by CP1 provided that switch S 2 on the SHM
board is set to 1.
If the backgauge lock function is turned off by switch S 2 on the SHM board, Y391 will be shortly activated
to relieve the backgauge lock.

Swivel / tilting backgauge / Fixomat (DNF) (SER)


The DNF board controls the d. c. motors of the Fixomat front and side lay marks. The supply voltage of the
motors is derived from the secondary voltage 0 - 15 - 30 Va.c. of the control transformer.
The three-phase motors for the swivel and tilting backgauge are activated through the relays K 353 - K 354
- K 355 - K 356 on the SER board.
Potentiometers acknowledge the current status of the backgauge setting. The analog voltages of the
potentiometers are digitized on board DNF via an analog-digital converter and then signaled to the central
processor (CP 1).
Depending on the machine equipment, the different functions need to be activated by the switches
on the DNF board.

On special versions (Transomat 3 BL, gripper transport system) the S121 switch is used instead of
limit switch S 13a.

Description of functions

Mechanical system:
The ball bearing spindle with ball bushing is set during the assembly in the factory. It requires no readjustment
even after a longer operation time.
the ball bearing spindle always has to be replaced completely, together with the ball bushing.
Never turn the ball bushing off the spindle, because all the balls would drop out of the bushing and the
bushing could not be used any longer.
A mounting sleeve is necessary for installing the ball bushing onto the spindle and also for dismantling it.
In dismantled condition, the spindle torque should be 1 Nm. In assembled condition a value of
2.5 Nm should not be exceeded.

Electrical system:
The ESR Servo power amplifier is mounted to the crosshead under the rear table.
The mains connection is made from the machine with a 5-core cable via adapter plug no. 100. The supply
voltage can be changed over in the power amplifier from 200 - 440 V three-phase.

Power supply from control unit

The servo motor is connected with a shielded two-core cable from the power amplifiers terminals 1 and 2,
shielding terminal 3.
The tachometer generator is also connected by a shielded 2-core cable at the power amplifier, terminals
4 and 5, shielding terminal 3.
As on the machines without servo control, the motor brake is connected with a two-core cable, plug 104,
at the MCM.
Data transfer from the Servo board to the Servo power amplifier is performed with a four-core cable with 15pin plug.

Explanations regarding the block diagram on page 30

(( 1* ) =Enable: Signal Motor ON.


For backgauge movement, the enable signal is issued from CP 1 via yP bus to PI.
PI
signals brake enabled and the K1 relay on PI turns on the K1 relay on the Servo board. Zero
signal is indicated on terminal 15 of the control unit and power amplifier is activated. Servo LED
V9 = brake enabled / V1 = motor ON.
( 2.) = Control signal: Control voltage for motor speed control. Depending on the machine direction
there is a voltage between 0 and + 10V d. c. or 0 and - 10V d. c. 0V with backgauge Stop. The
control signal is supplied from the CP 1 via the yP bus and the Servo board to the control unit
(ESR). Terminal 11
Through voltage control the motor speed is infinitely variable from V 0 to V max. The motor brake is
switched on when the CP 1 has the signal V 0. The brake is meant to lock the motor at standstill. The
V max. speed (approx. 31 cm./sec.) is reached after approx. 13.5 cm, and in automatic mode, only.
The regulation from V max. to V 0 requires also 13.5 cm. In the service display this value is indicated
as a slow down travel. The V max. speed is only obtained with distances of more than 27 cm. The
max. current of the control unit is set to 12 amps. If the current limit is set too low, the motor will not
reach its full speed. At V max. the current is about 5.5 amps.
The motor speed is determined with a tachometer generator. When the speedometer fails, the
backgauge will go to V max. manually and without control. Poor carbon brushes will cause uneven
operation!
Drift velocity. This velocity is only determined in a reference run. Once the rear table limit switch (S13)
has been reached, the backgauge stops its advance movement for approx. 2 3 sec. after about 15
cm. The power glide is measured and the backgauge moves forward to approx. 40 cm. The drift
depends on the offset adjustment on the Servo board as well as the zero point in the ESR amplifier.
Set the current limit. As of CP 1 version V 6.0 the error message No pulses from measuring system
is issued when the backgauge is locked. From this program version, the auxiliary operation must be
turned on before the current limit can be set.
When the carbon brushes of the tachometer generator are worn or soiled, the motor will not run
smoothly or it will approach the positions inaccurately.

SERVO SETTING
! Move backgauge to center of table!
1. Zero balancing of Servo board in CUM module
The Servo board must be plugged onto an adapter. Make sure that the computer has preset a control
voltage of 0 V (automatic positioning must not be activated).
Connect voltmeter to measuring points MP 2 and J2 Pin 3.
Use potentiometer P1 to set the voltage to 0 V.
Switch the machine off and remove the adapter board.

2. Zero balancing of Servo power amplifier ESR


a) Jumper J2 on the Servo board in such a away that the Pins 2 and 3 are linked.
b) Connect terminals 15 and 20 on the power amplifier with a jumper
( enable ).
c) By-pass the S 18 switch of the manual precision adjustment at plug CUM 14, contacts 3 and 6,
( Motor brake must be activated ). Then, switch the machine on.
d) Adjust potentiometer P2 at the ESR ( zero point adjustment ) until servo motor is at a standstill (
see actual value on the monitor or measure the speedometer voltage).
Switch machine off .
e) Plug jumper J2 on Servo board in such a away that the Pins 1 and 2 are linked. Remove bridges
between terminals 15 and 20 as well as switch S18 at CUM 14.6 and CUM 14.3.

3. Setting the number of revolutions at the servo power amplifier (ESR)


With the tachometer the number of revolutions is measured direct at the end of the spindle (second
person necessary).
The potentiometer P1 ( speed ) is adjusted in such a way that the spindle runs 1800 rpm. in
automatic operation, and 900 rpm. in manual operation (use hand wheel).
The motor speed must not exceed 2800 rpm. (measured at the motor shaft).

4. Feedback setting procedure


The feedback is set at P3 ( feedback ) in the following way:
Turn the potentiometer P3 counterclockwise, until the servo motor runs audibly harsh.
Then turn the potentiometer P3 slowly clockwise, until the servo motor runs smoothly over the entire
speed range. Then check movement to position without display correction.

5. Setting the power limit


The current setting at the servo power amplifier is carried out in the factory. It should only be readjusted
when the P4 potentiometer (current setting) has been misadjusted or the red LED lights up because of
an excessive load on the servomotor. The current can be set from 2 12 amps.
Lock the motor (best at the rear of the table). Switch measuring instrument into motor line. (direct
current up to 30 amps) Set current at P4 to max. 12 amps.
Note: From CP1 version V 6.0 the auxiliary operation must be activated before the current limit can be
set. Otherwise, when the backgauge is locked the error message No pulses from measuring
system would be issued.
After any new setting the machine must be initialized in a reference run, because the new
machine parameters on the CP4 board must be saved as machine data!

Problem solving for machines with servo drive


Description of fault:

Zero point and drift cannot be adjusted correctly, or zero point or drift are not
stable while machine is in operation. Optimal value for zero point or drift is the
value >0.000<. with the resulting brake afterrun, which is also >0.000< with optimal
zero point or drift. Major variations between positive and negative values of drift
and brake afterrun also indicate that there must be an error in the adjustment.
admissible tolerances for
Drift:
Brake afterrun:

- 0.002 cm / sec to + 0.002 cm / sec


0.000cm to 0.004 cm maximum

Mechanical check:
Make sure that there is no mechanical stiffness throughout the backgauge travel. First, remove the toothed
belt from the spindle drive unit. Then slowly move the backgauge over the entire travel, using a torque
wrench. The max. admissible torque of 2.5 Nm must not be exceeded in this case. If the value is higher on
some points, please check the spindle guides, spindle and backgauge support for damages. The permissible
torque of the spindle alone (friction value spindle / nut) must not exceed 1 Nm. Moreover, after activation of
the motor brake an unimpeded rotation of the motor must be possible. This can be ensured by supplying
the brake coil directly with + 24 V d.c. If you notice a partial mechanical stiffness, please re-adjust the
brake or replace it.
Inspection of the motor control system:
As far as the servocontrol system is concerned, all the conversion steps should be taken to obtain the
status BN 6454.1439. This includes modifying the servo board and the amplifier cable. The following
measure should be performed:
1.

At the servo amplifier, please remove the bridge between the two terminals no. 12 and no. 20.

3.

The amplifier (ESR) has a jumper on the base plate which must be removed.

3.

Attach jumpers on the servo board.

4.

Modify connection cable of servo amplifier.


( please observe the drawings on pages 47 and 48 when carrying out the conversion)

If an additional error differentiation in the display shall be obtained, upgrade the program to
version V 6.1 0 or higher, and install the new cable harness which has two additional cores.
The new servo board id. no. 029176 is also required.

Maintenance and repair of the servo motor with holding brake


The d. c. motor (made by Bautz) employed for driving the ball bearing spindle is composed of three
assemblies:
1. D. c. motor
1. D. c. motor

2. Tachometer generator

3. Holding brake

( carbon brushes 4 x id. no. 227361 )

The maximum voltage allowed to be supplied to the motor is 120V d. c.. The motor is supplied from the
ESR amplifier (terminals 1+2) via carbon brushes onto the collector. The max. adjusted voltage in this
example is approx. 112 V d.c. at a motor speed of approx. 2,800 rpm.
Important! The new carbon brushes are 17 mm long, and must never be shorter than 5 mm. Besides,
please make sure that the carbon brushes show an even contact pattern. Since the carbon brushes are
abrading and this powdered carbon collects in the motor and at the collector, the motor must be sent-in to
the manufacturer for maintenance work after the carbon brushes have been changed for the third time. The
motor cannot be cleaned on site, because the relevant cleaning devices (such as ultrasonic cleaning) are
not available. Furthermore, when the motor is at the manufacturers for maintenance purposes, the bearing
will be replaced and the collector re-worked. If the motor is not serviced, the deposit of carbon dust may
cause an accidental ground in the motor which results in malfunctions, or may even cause the servo
amplifier to be damaged in individual cases. Since the applications of the cutting machines vary greatly it
is not possible to indicate a definite period for the change of the carbon brushes. The motor should also be
inspected with regard to accidental ground, before new brushes are installed or if there are temporary
malfunctions of the servo drive. In that case disconnect the motor, check both lines for connection against
the motor housing with an ohmmeter; the collector should also been turned for this purpose).
2. Tachometer generator

( carbon brushes 2 x id. no. 227362 )

The tachometer generator is connected with the motor shaft and generates a voltage during the motor run,
which is supplied to the generator carbon brushes to the servo amplifier (terminals 4+5). This voltage
governed by the speed serves to control and stabilize the motor speed.
Important! The new carbon brushes are 9 mm long, and must never be shorter than 3 mm. Please
observe the contact pattern of the brushes also in this case. The generated d. c. voltage with max. speed
is approx. 38 V and can be measured at terminals 4 + 5 of the servo amplifier.
3. Holding brake
The servo control positions the backgauge precisely to the nominal position. Therefore the brake performs
only a holding function and is consequently smaller than the brake on a machine of the same type, but
with a normal drive system. The supply voltage is 24 V d.c., the brake air gap to be adjusted is 0.2 mm.
Since April 1990 Polar uses the brake made by Mayer. This brake is identical with the previously used
Lenze brake as far as the function is concerned, but the adjustment of the brake air gap is different. In the
past, some motors showed broken locking pins which caused the machines to break down. This is the
reason why we have been gluing the hub of the brake rotor additionally with Loctite 290 on the motor shaft
since one year ago. Now, should this particular type of locking pin ( DIN 7344 - 2,5 x 16 / id. no. 203490 )
break on older motors, the damage can be eliminated on site by gluing the hub and inserting a new pin.

Cause no. 2:

Short-to-ground responds

Indication:

Yellow LED (front panel) lights up; red LED on ground plate, or on older devices, red
LED on additional board HL 6454.1439 on the first slot of the motherboard lights up.

Error cause:

Accidental ground of one or both motor lines to the motor housing.


Caused by parting of cable in the motor line and resulting accidental ground to the
cable shield. By a worn-through motor cable. By dust of the brushes which caused
arcing to the motor housing.

Elimination:

In case of parting of cable install a new motor cable, check the motor, take measurement
with an ohmmeter or high-voltage tester between motor housing and one motor cable.
While doing so turn the motor shaft manually in order to detect a short over an entire
rotation of the motor. In case of accidental ground, replace the motor.
Important! For these measurements, the device must be turned off and the motor
disconnected. In order to reset the stored display messages, the yellow and red LED on
the device, turn the mains voltage off and re-connect it.

Check:

Under normal operational conditions the red LED on the motherboard or on supplementary
board HL 6454.1439 as well as the yellow LED on the front panel must be OFF.

Cause no. 3:

Connection error or defective supply line

Indication:

Yellow LED (ESR front side) lights up.

Error cause:

- Enable input is open (terminal 15)


- Limit switch input is open (terminals 6 and 7)
- Line break at these inputs
- Short-to-ground, simultaneously the red LED lights up.

Elimination:

Measure the inputs (terminals 6, 7 and 15) to 0V (terminal 20) with voltmeter. The inputs
must be at 0V, in case of a malfunction the inputs go up to approx. +14V. Eliminate
accidental ground in motor line.

Cause no. 4:

Maladjustment or fault in motor circuit

Indication:

Red LED (ESR front side) lights up.

Error cause:

- Current limit set too low


- Motor locked
- Motor connection lines short-circuited one against the other

Elimination:

Check motor lines for short circuit. Switch ammeter into motor line. Current limit was
too low and must be redefined. To do so, lock the motor. The pulse current will flow for
some seconds. After that the devices switches back to constant current and the red
LED lights up. In this condition the current is adjusted to the nominal current of the
motor by means of the current limit potentiometer (front panel).

Check:

The ammeter should be monitored for some time throughout the intended operation of
the machine. In any case the mean current must be sufficiently below the adjusted
current limit.

Cause no. 5:

Interruption in motor circuit

Indication:

All LEDs (ESR front side) are in order

Error cause:

- Motor line interrupted


- Defective motor
- Defective output stage

Elimination:

- Measure nominal value input (terminals 11 and 12)


- Check carbon brushes of motor, use new ones, if necessary, or replace motor.
- In case of defective output stage, replace entire plug-in section.

- Measure reference voltage + / - 14V ( terminals 13 and 14 ) to 0V ( terminal 20 )

Cause no. 7:

Activation error

Indication:

All LEDs ( ESR front side ) are in order. Motor is at a standstill at the moment or is
drifting slowly into one direction

Error cause:

No nominal value available

Elimination:

Measure nominal value input (terminal 11 compared to 12)

Error:

Motor runs without any control

Error cause:

- Tachometer generator of motor badly poled


- Tachometer line of motor broken
- Superimposed control circuit does not coincide with the direction of rotation of the
motor
- Servo board jumper plugged incorrectly

Elimination:

- Check connection of motor cable


- Measure tachometer voltage again (terminal 4 to 5)
- Interrupt any superimposed bearing control circuit (disconnect transmitter signals)
If the motor still does not run with speed control, exchange the connections of the
tachometer or the motor. If the direction of rotation is correct, the bearing control circuit,

Automatic clamping pressure regulation (PDR)


The control for automatic clamping pressure regulation is divided into two blocks.
A. Hydraulic control unit:
Consisting of control block P1 with proportionally controlled pressure valve, one pressure sensor and two
micro filters.
B. Electronic control unit:
Consisting of:
1 PDR plug-in board
1 CUM module
8 light sensors
8 amplifiers for the light sensors
1 stepping switch 0 10 for pressure presetting
1 selector switch for sensors On/Off
Description of functions
The hydraulic P1 control unit has been newly conceived for automated clamping pressure regulation.
It is composed of:
1. proportional solenoid valve
2. pop valve
3. pressure sensor
The proportional solenoid valve is controlled to open or close at a varying degree by means of the current
via the PDR board. The pop valve is set at the factory to a value of 150 bars to protect the pump.
The valve seat in the proportional valve can be adjusted from the rear at the P1 control unit and has
also been factory set to 25 28 bars. This setting cannot be made when the unit is installed. ( From the
front, a correction within a range of + / - 3 bars can be made). Safety clamping pressure or clamping bar
speed are adjusted in the usual way. (Please, refer to the sticker on the frame pillar containing the hydraulic
system).
The pressure sensor is required for the data acquisition for the electronic system. Its temperature
compensation allows a max. pressure deviation of 1.5 bars in the range of 10 100C.
For automatic clamping pressure regulation the following connections are required at the CUM module
and the PDR plug-in board.
Sensor amplifier 1 - 4, plug no. 825 CUM unit
Sensor amplifier 5 -8, plug no. 826 CUM unit
Stepping switch clamping pressure selection and sensors ON/OFF.
Both units are accommodated in the control unit.

The clamping pressure selector switch is used for selecting the desired clamping pressure.
If the switch for the sensors is turned off, the clamping pressure regulation works manually, i. e. the
clamping pressure is adjusted according to the position of the preselection switch.
Clamping pressure selector switch set to 10:
on POLAR 115 / 137 = 4500 kp
on POLAR 155
= 5500 kp
on POLAR 176
= 6000 kp

Functional principle of automatic clamping pressure regulation


When the switch for the sensors is turned on, the clamping pressure regulation works automatically, i. e.
the clamping pressure is regulated according to the number of sensors covered . Regardless of the material
alignment on the right or left-hand side in the machine: the more sensors are covered by material to be cut,
the higher will the clamping pressure be. The control unit has an internal table which differs for machine
types 92 to 176.
This tables includes all the pressure values (stepping switch 0 10) which are combined with all the
sensor conditions possible and the relevant current values for the proportional solenoid valve.
This special recording of all the values (teach-in program) is made at the factory for every single type of
machine, and will be retained even when the control system is turned off.
When the PDR board or the hydraulic block P1 is replaced, the setting must be made according to the
setting instructions, items A and B.
The 8 sensors integrated in the machine table supply one signal, each, to the control unit via 8 amplifiers
(1- 4 on the right, 5 8 on the left side).
At the factory the sensors are adjusted for dark paper. This can be seen from the red LEDs located at the
individual amplifiers. When the sensor is covered the LED at the relevant amplifier (24 V d.c.) lights up. If
no sensor is covered, all the LEDs are OFF (0V). If a readjustment is necessary, because an amplifier or
fiber optic cable has been replaced or when extremely dark cutting material has been used, the sensitivity
can be modified at the amplifier potentiometer (amplifiers are installed under the machine table) beneath
the red LED, with the machine switched on.
The sensitivity must not be increased so far that the amplifiers will be turned on by reflexions at the
pressure clamp or at the lower side of the false clamp plate when the clamp is in its upper resting position.
Cover the sensor with cutting material. Turn the potentiometer clockwise, until the red LED lights up.
Take away the cutting material. The LED must go out. If not, repeat this procedure.
When replacing a fiber optic cable, make sure that the cable will not be bent.
It must be laid with a radius of at least three times the thickness of the cable.
A cable is perfectly laid, when all the glass fibers on the amplifier side (unscrew cables from the amplifier)
are light when the sensor is not covered.
The fiber optic cable is screwed into the sensor bush with threaded sleeve - turn to the cover plate.
Then lock slightly.
When mounting the table into the frame, please proceed with utmost care to prevent any damages to the
light fiber cables under the table.

Instructions for setting the PDR board


Switch machine off . Wait, until main motor is at a standstill. Connect pressure sensor for pressure
gauge to the test tap at the P1 control unit. Switch the machine on.
A.

Zero calibration ( = circulation pressure ) press RESET button


1. Set mode selector (MOD) on the PDR plug-in board to 2.
2. Use the offset potentiometer to set the mode indication in such a way that the tens decade is
0 and the unit decade jumps from 0 to 1
(see illustration, PDR board).

B.

Adjustment amplification max. pressure V = max. / P = max.


1. Leave mode selector on the PDR plug-in board at 2.
2. Select special function clamping without cutting (D).
3. Press both cut buttons and set max. pressure with potentiometer P max.
POLAR 115, 137: 106 bar = 4500 daN
POLAR 155:
130 bar = 5500 daN
POLAR 176:
138 bar = 6000 daN
2. Press both cut buttons again, and use potentiometer V max to set the on-indicator pilot light on
the tens decade to F and the unit decade to a value between E and F ( junction).
Repeat procedures A and B. Set operating mode switch (MOD) to position 0.

C.

Activate teach-in program


1. Set operating mode switch to position 1.
2. Input cutting program, for example
100,000 cm + D ( Special function clamping without cutting )
ET 0.50 cm + D ( Special function clamping without cutting )
Adjust maximum retarding of cutting cycle with clamping time rotary switch.
Turn automatic knife on and trigger a cut.
3. Now all the table values (pressure values), from the minimum to the maximum pressure, stage 0 to
stage 10 are now learned one by one. The displays on the PDR board show the following values:
Unit decade
= clamping pressure stages 0 - A ( 0 10 )
Tens decade = number of active sensors ( 0 8 )

The training process is finished when the unit decade of 0 A and the tens decade of 0 8 have been run
through.
Once the teach-in program is terminated, set the operating switch to 0 position. The operating program
is activated and the display of the PDR board shows the number of activated sensors and the preselected
clamping pressure stage.

The PDR board is equipped with a battery-backed component with a 10 year life. Every time the machine
is turned on, the charging condition of the battery is checked.
If the battery is discharged so far that the data cannot be retained over the shut-off period of the machine,
the 2-digit indicator on the PDR board will flash.
The clamping pressure regulation function is maintained in this mode. But the clamping forces deviate
more from the preset values.
In case of an error in the internal control of the PDR board or the pressure sensor (on hydraulic control
block) an emergency operation will be switched on. The clamping force will then be set to approx. 80 % of
the maximum clamping force, irrespective of the position of the preselector switch.
On the display of board PDR - FF- is then flashing.

Program ( V 2.0 ) for automatic clamping pressure regulation


Since 1988 we use a new program version (V 2.0) for the optional clamping pressure regulation. The PDR
plug-in board, program version V 2.0 is suitable for all machines equipped with the optional automatic
clamping pressure regulation.
Version V 2.0 includes all the features of the preceding versions (fully-automatic) and the additional new
operating mode emergency operation.
With this operating mode, the pressure can be manually adjusted, if the sensors in the control block are
defective or the input stage of board PDR has failed.
Make the necessary setting for emergency operation in the following way:
1. Set the MOD switch from position 0 to 8
2. Press the reset key on the PDR board
3. Turn clamping pressure stepping switch on control unit to 10
4. Select special function D (=clamping without cutting =) and release the clamping process.
Use the P max. pot to set the maximum value, according to the type of machine.
115: 103 - 106 bar = approx. 4500 dN
137: 103 - 106 bar = approx. 4500 dN
155: 125 - 130 bar = approx. 5500 dN
176: 135 - 138 bar = approx. 6000 dN
5. For setting the minimum clamping pressure turn the stepping switch to 0, then turn the Size
switch to position 1 or F . Trigger a clamping action by pressing the cut buttons. With
position 1 the pressure is automatically and gradually increased, with F position, it is reduced.
As soon as the desired value has been reached, release the cut buttons and turn the Size
switch to 0 position.
The adjusted pressure values are saved and can be activated any time with the clamping pressure
stepping switch (0 10). These values remain stored even when the machine is turned off.
