استيراد DXF (اختياري)

In DELEM DA-69T Machine Mode, the optional DXF import function allows for importing a wingbend die shape. Note these points:

• The die’s body must be in layer 0 of the DXF drawing.
• The wing, or rotating part, should be in a separate layer. Naming this layer “wing” enables automatic tool type selection.
• Both parts in the DXF must be closed contours for proper importation.

Utilizing Drawing Functionalities

In programming punches, dies, adapters, and machine shapes, the control allows free drawing of shapes for more realism and precise collision prevention. Users can sketch the desired shape first and adjust segment values later or define segments accurately from the start.

Important to know is the following:

• In the end these shapes should be closed. The auto-finish function can help with that.

• The height of the programmed object is used in the bending calculations. Keep in mind

that this is very important to get to the desired results.

Helpful to know can be the following:

• A line as well as an angle can be given a radius.

• Snapping will help to align lines and angles to its surroundings.

• A line’s length, projection dimensions, and angle can be used for programming. The control system adjusts values based on your last input, accommodating variations in drawing dimensions provided for each shape detail.

• Help lines allow for measuring inter-point distances and adjusting points as needed. Selecting a point displays help lines; adjust these to set the desired distance, and the point will move accordingly.

• For your convenience the help lines can be switched off, giving a non disturbed view to what you have drawn.

• In case the control is using mount points in the tool details, the mount points can be toggled with the drawing. This will prevent from accidental non desired changes to either mount point position or shape details.

DXF import for tools, adapters and machine parts

Programming punches and dies in the DELEM DA-69T Machine Mode involves using its DXF import function, a standard tool in the DA-69T. This feature allows you to bring custom contours into the machine’s tool library, including punches, bottom dies, and adapters.

Start by opening the file browser to choose a DXF file containing the desired shape. Adjust conversion settings as needed to select specific layers or include only contour information. Once you choose “Convert,” decide between automatic shape detection or specify the shape and assign an ID to the new tool.

Tool Editing and Library Integration

After conversion, the tool can be edited for details like height and mount points. Once finalized, it’s added to the tool library for use.

Multi-Contour Tool Conversion

For tools with multiple contours, ensure the main body’s layer is set to 0, while other parts like hem dies or wing bends are on separate layers named accordingly. Both parts must have closed contours in the DXF for successful import.

Enhancing Machine Operations with Protractors and Event Logging

Event logging

One of the powerful features of the DELEM DA-69T Machine Mode is its ability to log events for production management. This functionality enables users to register certain events on the control and store them in text files for later examination. Understanding how to set these parameters is crucial for effective management and optimization of your production processes.

Event Logging: On/Off Toggle

• Filename: Assign a name for your log file. The system will append a ‘.txt’ extension automatically.
• Path Selection: Choose where to store your log files. Options include the internal memory, a USB stick, or a network drive. Use the “Select Path” function to specify your preferred location.
• Maximum File Size: Determine the maximum size for each log file in kilobytes. Upon reaching this limit, the file is closed and a new one is created. This ensures a continuous logging process without data loss.

Parameters for Event Logging:

• Controller Start: Logs when the control is initiated.
• Controller Stop: Logs when the control is stopped.
• Step Change: Logs transitions to the next bend step.
• Product Complete: Logs completion of the last step in a bend program.
• Mode Change: Logs when a different mode is selected.
• Error Message: Logs occurrences of error messages.

Log File Structure

Each event line in the log file comprises the timestamp and the nature of the event. For instance:

• مثال: <log time="20100129T122021.477" event="mode" mode="1"/>

The time is formatted as log time=<date>T<time>, with the date shown as year-month-date and time as hours-minutes-seconds-milliseconds, separated by a ‘T’. The nature of the event is identified by keywords, such as:

• Mode Change: Attributes include mode number where 1 = manual, 2 = programming, 3 = automatic, 4 = step by step.
• Step Change: Attributes might include product ID and step number.
• Start/Stop: Attributes include product ID, step number, and stock counter.
• Product Complete: Attributes include product ID and stock counter.
• Error Message: Attribute is the error number.

File Storage Considerations

With each log line taking approximately 50 bytes, a 10 KB file can log about 200 events. For extensive logging, consider using external storage like a USB stick or network location, supporting up to 1 MB file size, equivalent to about 20,000 events.
