Unlike semi-automatic mode, which requires operator confirmation after each bend, automatic mode executes all programmed bending steps continuously, dramatically reducing cycle time and increasing throughput. If you&#8217;re ready to move from first-part verification to full-scale production, this guide will show you how to smoothly start and safely operate\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode. Whether you&#8217;re running hundreds of identical parts or just want to streamline your workflow, you&#8217;ll learn how to set up, monitor, and optimize automatic bending with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Switch to Automatic Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Switching to\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode\u00a0is straightforward. Click on the navigation bar icon to switch to automatic production mode. Once you are in automatic mode, simply press the\u00a0<strong>przycisk start<\/strong>\u00a0to run the product program. The machine will execute each bending step in sequence without requiring operator confirmation between bends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-1300x729.png\" alt=\"ESA S840 Automatic Mode\" class=\"wp-image-83095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-1300x729.png 1300w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-400x224.png 400w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-360x202.png 360w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-430x241.png 430w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-700x393.png 700w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/www.harsle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-14.png 1337w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Set Production Quantity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most useful features of\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode\u00a0is the ability to preset the number of parts you wish to produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kliknij na&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Set quantity&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;. In the pop-up dialog box, you can enter the required number of processed parts for the product. This is especially helpful for production runs where you need to produce a specific batch size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the quantity is completed, the system will display a message in the information bar at the top of the screen:<br><strong>&#8220;PM004 product processing count completed&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;. If you need to continue producing more parts beyond the set quantity, simply press the start button again to continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Reset the Processed Count<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to start a new production run or reset the counter for any reason,\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode\u00a0provides a simple reset function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kliknij na&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Reset Count&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;. The system will reset the processed count to zero. This is useful when you are switching to a different product or starting a fresh batch after completing a previous order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Use Initial Bending<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes you may need to restart the program from the very first bending step \u2013 for example, after an interruption or when restarting a production run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kliknij na&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Initial bend&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;. The program will jump to the first step of the current program. Once you are ready, press the start button again to continue. This function ensures you don&#8217;t have to manually scroll back through steps or reload the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to View Graphics in Automatic Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ESA S840 automatic mode\u00a0also includes a graphic visualization feature to help you monitor the bending process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kliknij na&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Graphics&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;to view the automatic graphic page. The graphic display shows the current bending step, tooling positions, and part profile. For more detailed information about graphic functions, please refer to the relevant sections of the KVARA S830-S840-S850 touch user manual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prerequisites for Starting Automatic Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you switch to\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode, ensure the following conditions are met:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Program is verified<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Run at least one complete part in semi-automatic mode and confirm all bend angles, backgauge positions, and part dimensions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Corrections are saved<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Any angle or position corrections made in semi-automatic mode must be saved to the program.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tooling is secure<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Check that punches and dies are properly installed and clamped.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Material is loaded<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Ensure a fresh stack of blanks is ready and properly aligned.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Safety devices are active<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Light curtains, two-hand controls, and foot pedals must function correctly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step-by-Step: How to Smoothly Start ESA S840 Automatic Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these steps for a smooth transition into\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Load the Verified Program<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the program list, select the program you have already tested and corrected.

By verifying your program in semi-automatic mode first, setting the correct production quantity, using reset count and initial bend functions as needed, and following safety best practices, you can run hundreds of parts with minimal operator intervention. The graphic page gives you real-time visual feedback, while quantity completion alerts keep you informed. Remember to monitor the process, spot-check part quality, and never bypass safety devices. With practice, automatic mode will become your standard for repeatable, fast, and accurate bending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more detailed support on\u00a0ESA S840 automatic mode\u00a0or any other questions about your HARSLE press brake, don&#8217;t hesitate to contact our technical support team.
