Metal Stamping Presses

• SAFE AND RELIABLE
  The CIECO PPC 1000 Press Control meets or exceeds ANSI B11.1, B11.16 (MPIF#47), B11.19, and OSHA 1910.217 regulations including control reliability.  All containined in a 12 x 12 x 6 enclosure, the 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 relay 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 means safety features cannnot be re-programmed or jumped out.

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 interrupted stroke indicator light will illuminate and the mode will automatically change to 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 PPC1000 automatically returns to the original operating mode. Production is resumed quickly and easily.

Position Safety Monitor.

• Monitors the rotary cam limit switch for cable break, slippage, and decoupling. Should any of the above occur; the PPC1000 will stop the press and warn the operator with a message.

Micro-Inch Input

• Provides for minute adjustments of the slide by sending a timed pulse to the solenoid valves when initiated by the two hand palm buttons. This type of slide movement makes setup easier, especially on high-speed presses or those with short strokes.

Self Diagnostics

• Easy-to-understand messages communicate the status of the control. If more information is needed, the control board has LED indicators for fault display.

PLC Interface (can save you thousands)

• Eliminate the costs of Dual PLCs.

Press Control/Operator Station in One

• Some operations find it convenient to mount the control enclosure on a “T” stand with two palm buttons for use as an operator station.

Custom Fault Messages

• Custom messages are available for faults. Call factory for information.

Multi-Station Control

• Up to four operators can safely run the press.

Motor Controls/Press Control in One

• Some press and motor controls are included in one enclosure, making it convenient to locate it all on the side of the press.

Automatic Single Stroke Mode

• This mode is used for an external device to initiate the single stroke of the press. Proper guarding in accordance with OSHA 1910.217 must be in place to operate safely.

Continuous On Demand

• This mode is usually used when the press is faster then the feed and must be stopped momentarily to allow the feed to "catch up" and then restarted.  Proper guarding in accordance with OSHA 1910.217 must be in place to operate safely.

Swiftrip Mode

• The SwifTrip mode allows the operator to trip the press with a single button. Light curtains must be used in this mode for point of operation guarding. A touch button is mounted on the safe side of the light curtain in a convenient location so as to allow the operator to touch the button as he is removing his hand from the die area. The press will make one stroke and top stop allowing the operator to remove a part and insert another before he starts the cycle again. The purpose of this mode is to increase production while still maintaining a high degree of safety for the operator.
