PBC-1000 Press Brake Control

The PBC-1000 is a basic press brake control for mechanical or air clutch/brake press brakes.  It's low cost affords updating your brake into OSHA compliance.  Used with a light curtain for point of operation guarding, the PBC1000 can run a variety of forming operations.

Standard Feature Descriptions

Air Clutch or Mechanical Clutch Brake.

  • The PBC1000 can be used on an air clutch brake that is operated with  two palm buttons or foot switch and  on mechanical press brakes with a mechanical foot pedal.

Dual Processor Press Clutch/Brake Control.

  • The PBC1000 press clutch/brake press control meets or exceeds ANSI B11.1, B11.3, B11.16 (MPIF#47),  B11.19 and OSHA 1910.217 including control reliability. Self- checking dual logic controllers constantly check each other for proper operation and component failure.  Dual power supplies and dual relays provide for even more safety.  The actual contacts switching the solenoid valves are monitored to confirm proper operation. If the controllers or relays do not agree, press initiation is inhibited. The systems are designed so that a single fault in any of its parts does not lead to the loss of safety function.  A dedicated control eliminates the possibility of reprogramming or bypassing safety features.

Interrupted Stroke Mode w/Indicator.

  • Provides a quick and easy way to resume production when an interrupted stroke occurs. When the press is stopped before completion of a normal stroke, the red indicator light will illuminate and the mode automatically changes to the Inch mode. The Message Center will display the cause of the interrupted stroke eliminating any guesswork. After the press has been brought to the top position, the PBC1000 automatically returns to the original operating mode. Production is resumed quickly and easily.
