the Crowning Axis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the machine is equipped with a crowning system, the crowning axis can also be adjusted through the CybTouch 8 Manual Movement page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Correct crowning compensation helps distribute bending force evenly along the entire workpiece, reducing angle variations caused by machine deflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Setting Manual Bending Force<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Manual Movement page also allows operators to specify the bending force used during manual operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Selecting an appropriate force ensures that the beam moves smoothly while protecting the tooling and machine components from unnecessary stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the beam moves slowly or does not move as expected, verify that sufficient tonnage has been programmed before attempting manual operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Operating the Beam Manually<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beam can also be controlled directly from the CybTouch 8 Manual Movement interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Low-Speed Beam Movement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During manual operation, the beam normally moves downward at low speed to provide maximum control and improve operator safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Low-speed movement is recommended during:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Configura\u00e7\u00e3o da ferramenta<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Machine inspection<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trial positioning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maintenance procedures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High-Speed Beam Movement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where supported by the machine configuration, operators can activate high-speed beam movement using the dedicated control button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High-speed movement should only be used when the working area is clear and the operator has confirmed that no collision risks exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using the Foot Pedal During Manual Movement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The foot pedal remains an important control device during manual operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After selecting the required axis and configuring the appropriate settings, operators can use the foot pedal to lower the beam gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The combination of touchscreen controls and foot pedal operation allows both hands to remain available for monitoring tooling and workpiece positioning when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always maintain a safe distance from the tooling area while operating the foot pedal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding the Desynchronized Beam Function<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O <strong>Desynchronized Beam<\/strong> function provides additional flexibility when correcting beam alignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the padlock icon is unlocked, operators can independently move either the Y1 or Y2 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QfaIF5IMsmY\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QfaIF5IMsmY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">axis<\/a> at low speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to Use Desynchronized Beam<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Desynchronized Beam is commonly used when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Correcting beam parallelism<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Returning an unsynchronized beam to its reference position<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Performing maintenance adjustments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recovering from positioning errors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the required adjustment has been completed, locking the function automatically selects the higher Y axis, allowing the operator to synchronize both sides of the beam by lowering it with the foot pedal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because this function directly affects beam alignment, it should be used carefully and only when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safety Guidelines for CybTouch 8 Manual Movement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although CybTouch 8 Manual Movement is designed for safe machine setup, operators should always follow standard safety procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
