2.2. Main uses and product features

CNC hydraulic sheet metal bending machine is a device used to complete the overall bending and forming of sheet metal. Generally, after one stroke of the slider, it can be bent into a cross-sectional profile of a certain geometric shape. For example, through multiple bending, more complex cross-sectional shapes can be obtained. Therefore, it is widely used in electro mechanical, light industry, agricultural machinery, shipbuilding, automobiles, containers, switches, transformers and aircraft industries. It is an ideal sheet metal bending and forming equipment. CNC hydraulic sheet metal bending machine is assembled from a frame, slider, workbench, oil cylinder, hydraulic proportional servo system, position detection system, CNC system and electrical system. Under three different working conditions, including no-load speed, working speed and return speed, the position of the slider can always be maintained at synchronous speed (parallel to the worktable), and high-precision positioning can be achieved at the end of the stroke.

When the machine is running, the operator steps on the foot switch on the button operation station. Under the control of the numerical control system and the hydraulic servo system, the slider quickly moves from the top dead center to the shifting point at no-load speed (also known as the safety brake). The moving point refers to the conversion point between the no-load speed and the working speed of the slider, and its position can be adjusted), and then the slider continues to move downward at the working speed. When the slider moves to the bottom dead center (also known as the end of the stroke, its position can be adjusted), the positioning of the end of the stroke is completed through the hydraulic servo system and the pressure is maintained. At this time, the plate sandwiched between the upper and lower molds forms a required angle, and then the slider returns to the top dead center.

Figure 4 Schematic diagram of machine tool structure

3.3. Introduction to hydraulic system

This machine tool adopts a hydraulic transmission system (Fig. 5 Hydraulic Schematic Diagram, P13). Two parallel oil cylinders drive the slider downward. The synchronization of the oil cylinders is ensured by the torsion axis. The hydraulic system adopts a manifold structure, and all hydraulic valves are installed on the manifold (Figure 36 exploded view of the manifold, P47), which improves the reliability and safety of the system and facilitates installation and maintenance.

System analysis:

When the machine tool fast forwards, electromagnets YA1 and YA3 are energized, valve 7 switches to the left working position, and valve 9 switches to the right working position. The pressure oil from the oil pump supplies oil to the upper chambers of the two cylinders at the same time. Since YA3 is powered on, the oil in the lower chambers of the two cylinders passes through valves 9, 8, and 7 and quickly returns to the oil tank. At this time, the dead weight of the slide causes the piston to decline faster than the oil supply speed of the oil pump. Negative pressure is generated. At this time, the hydraulic oil in the tank is sucked into the upper chamber of the oil cylinder through valve 13, and the slider forms a fast forward.

When the slider reaches the speed change point (the signal is sent by the travel switch), YA3 loses power, and valve 9 switches to the left working position. The oil in the lower chamber of the oil chamber generates a back pressure of 100 bar through valve 11, and the negative pressure in the upper chamber of the oil cylinder disappears. 13 valve closes by itself. At this time, the pressure oil from the oil pump enters the upper chamber of the oil cylinder through valves 7 and 8, and the slider forms a working flow.

When the slide reaches the bottom dead center (the signal is sent by the pressure gauge), YA1 loses power, YA2 gains power, valve 7 switches to the right working position, and the pressure oil from the oil pump flows to the lower chambers of the two cylinders through valves 7, 8, and 9. Oil supply, the oil in the upper chamber of the oil cylinder returns to the oil tank through valve 13, and the slider returns. When the

slider returns to the top dead center (the signal is sent by the travel switch), YA2 loses power, valve 7 returns to the middle working position, and the slider stops at the top dead center.

4. Transportation and storage

4.1. Precautions for hoisting and transportation

The machine tool is equipped with lifting holes for lifting and installation (Fig. 6 Lifting diagram).

When lifting the machine tool, the weight of the machine tool must be taken into consideration to select appropriate lifting equipment. Any carelessness during lifting may cause the rack to be deformed or damaged.

When transporting machine tools, choose appropriate transport equipment. The machine tool should be bundled firmly and covered tightly to avoid getting wet by rain. Drive slowly when the road is rough to avoid deformation or damage to the rack.

4.2. Storage conditions, storage period and precautions

The host needs to be transported and stored within the temperature range of -25 ~ 55 °C. If the transportation and storage time does not exceed 24 hours , the temperature can be as high as 70 ℃ . Moisture-proof, shock-proof and impact-resistant measures should be taken to avoid damage to the equipment.

5. Installation and adjustment

5.1. Installation of machine tools

Before installing the machine tool, the foundation must be prepared (first pouring) 10 days ago (Figure 9 Foundation Diagram, P17). After the machine tool is in place, the anchor bolts are poured with cement slurry (the second pouring is performed). Except for the four foot plates, the rest of the rack must not be in contact with the ground. After the cement slurry solidifies, perform horizontal adjustment on the machine tool.

5.2. Adjustment of machine tool level

Adjustment of the horizontal level: Place the levels 50mm away from both ends of the workbench (Figure 7), and adjust the foot adjustment screws to ensure that the horizontal (short direction of the workbench) level accuracy is within 0.2/1000mm.

Longitudinal horizontal adjustment: Since the workbench has a convex amount in the long direction (it is a curve with the middle part as the axis of symmetry), the equal height measuring blocks must be placed symmetrically on the workbench, and the inspection ruler must be placed on the equal height measuring blocks. , then place the level on the inspection ruler (Figure 8), adjust the foot adjustment screws to ensure that the longitudinal (longitudinal direction of the workbench) horizontal accuracy is within 0.2/1000mm.

After tightening the anchor bolts at the bottom of the rack, recheck that the accuracy is within 0.2/1000mm.

Precautions:

1) The surface where the level is placed should be free of oil, dust and other dirt.

2) If the longitudinal level is inconvenient to detect, the accuracy of the transverse level can be improved so that the horizontal errors on the left and right sides are in the same direction to ensure that the machine tool is not distorted.

5.3. Hydraulic oil

In the hydraulic system, hydraulic oil is the working medium that transmits power and motion. Whether a hydraulic system can work reliably and effectively depends to a large extent on the hydraulic oil used in the system.

5. 3.1 Cleaning of fuel tank

The hydraulic system of this machine tool has high requirements for the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil, and the cleaning of the oil tank is very important.

Every time the hydraulic oil is replaced, the oil cover must be removed, the bottom of the tank must be wiped with a towel (cotton yarn is not allowed to be wiped), and then clean kerosene or gasoline must be added for cleaning. Due to the limited area of the fuel tank cover, the arm cannot reach the end of the fuel tank. At this time, you can use a clean bamboo pole or wooden stick wrapped in a towel to wipe all corners. Unscrew the oil drain plug or gate valve at the bottom to drain the dirty oil. Use a clean Use a towel to dry the walls and bottom until clean. If necessary, roll flour balls on welds and hard-to-clean areas to pick up dust and debris. After cleaning, install the fuel tank cover.

5.3.2 Selection of hydraulic oil

The grade value of hydraulic oil is equal to the average value of its kinematic viscosity at a temperature of 40 °C.

The higher the working pressure of the hydraulic system, the higher the ambient temperature, and the slower the working speed, the higher the grade of hydraulic oil selected.

ISO for this machine tool VG46# anti-wear hydraulic oil ( the average kinematic viscosity when the temperature is 40°C is 46mm/s ). If the machine tool works below 5°C for a long time, the grade of hydraulic oil selected can be reduced (ISOV G32# ).

It is recommended not to use it at low temperatures (-5°C ). If used below -5°C, the machine tool should be run under no load for a period of time, and an oil heater should be installed on the circuit if necessary.

Under normal operating conditions, the oil temperature should not exceed 70 °

C. In special circumstances, an oil cooler can be installed on the circuit according to actual needs.

5.3.3 Filling of hydraulic oil

The oil used must be clean. Unscrew the nut of the air filter on the fuel tank cover and add oil to the fuel tank through the air filter. If you use a refueling device with a filter, you can open the fuel tank cover and refuel directly into the tank. Observe the oil mark. When the slider stays at the top dead center, the hydraulic oil should occupy 80 to 90% of the space of the oil mark (behind the oil tank) (Figure 10). See the technical parameters for fuel tank capacity (Table 3 Technical Parameters, P1 4).

Liquid level range

Figure 10 oil mark

—If the hydraulic oil used is not clean, it will affect the performance and service life of the system and components.

- After the machine tool has been working for a long time, do not touch the oil tank, oil pump, motor and other parts, as there is a risk of burns.

5.4 Electrical wiring

This machine tool uses three-phase power supply.

Electrical wiring needs to be carried out according to safety regulations.

The voltage should be checked frequently to see if it is normal.

The cross-section of the mains cable must be chosen so that the voltage drop does not exceed the limits stated above.

For power requirements and technical parameters of connecting cables (number of wires and cross-section), please refer to the "Electrical Instructions for Use".

Users need to connect the machine tool ground wire to the flat ground grid to

ensure the safety of personal equipment.

All markings on electrical components are also marked on each electrical diagram. (See "Electrical Instructions for Use").

Please refer to the "Electrical Instructions for Use" for the functions of buttons and indicator lights and the selection of operating methods.

After turning on the power, turn on the machine tool and observe the rotation direction of the oil pump motor. If the direction of rotation is opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow on the oil pump, any two phase lines of the three-phase power supply need to be interchanged.

6. Use and operation

6.1 Installation and adjustment of mold

This machine tool can be installed with different types of upper molds (upper mold in Figure 11) and lower molds with different openings (lower mold in Figure 12, P22), which need to be replaced according to the condition of the workpiece.

Precautions:

1) When changing the mold, adjust the machine tool to the " jogging" working state, and adjust the slider's rapid stroke to the minimum.

2) Check the fixing bolts of the mold regularly.

3) Molds that are not used temporarily should be carefully placed on the shelf next to the machine tool to avoid damaging the mold.

4) When the machine tool is not used for a long time, please lower the slider to the bottom dead center.

Notice!

— When installing the mold and pressing the upper and lower molds, the working pressure of the hydraulic system must be around 6MPa to avoid damaging the mold.

—Each mold has a maximum load capacity, and its maximum load capacity must not be exceeded during use.

Danger!

—The machine tool must not be started without the mold in place. Do not put your hands or other parts of your body into the space between the upper and lower molds at any time. Doing so is very dangerous.

6.2 Adjustment of slider stroke

6.2.1

Top dead center adjustment

The user can adjust the position of the top dead center to control the opening height of the slider as needed.

Loosen the top dead center bump block adjustment screw on the left side of the machine tool (Figure 17), move the top dead center bump block to the required position, and then tighten the screw.

6.2.2

Speed change point adjustment

The user can adjust the position of the speed change point as needed to control the position where the slider quickly drives to work.

Loosen the adjustment screw of the speed change point bumper block on the left side of the machine tool (Figure 17), move the speed change point bumper block to the required position, and then tighten the screw.

Figure

6.2.3 Bottom dead center adjustment

This machine tool adopts three-point free bending and controls the bending angle by controlling the depth of the upper mold entering the V-shaped opening of the lower mold (Figure 18). The deeper the upper mold enters the V-shaped opening of the lower mold, the smaller the bending angle.

Figure 18

The depth of the upper mold into the lower mold is controlled by mechanical stops. During the downward movement of the slider, when the stopper d presses onto the screw rod e, the slider stops moving and reaches the bottom dead center. When the sprocket g is rotated, the sprocket f is driven by the chain to rotate accordingly, causing the screw rod e to move up and down (Figure 19), so that the position of the bottom dead center of the slider can be adjusted to meet the needs of different bending angles. . The sprocket g is driven by a motor, and the digital display on the boom operating station can display its position. The buttons on the boom operating station can control the mechanical stop to increase at high speed, decrease at high speed, and reduce inching.

Figure 19

6.3 Adjustment of backgauge

The backgauge is used for the rear positioning of sheets. Through the screw drive, the distance from the back gauge to the center of the upper mold can be changed, and the distance value is displayed by the digital display on the operating station. The buttons on the operating station can control the high-speed increase, high-speed decrease, and inching decrease of the back gauge.

The height of the backgauge stop gauge can be adjusted according to the working conditions, and is generally slightly higher than the upper plane of the lower die

20

6.4 Adjustment of front support material

The front support material is used to hold up the folded sheet material for bending, and it can also be used for front positioning.

First adjust the height of the front support material so that the plane of the support material and the upper surface of the lower mold are in the same plane.

The blocking fingers used for front positioning are fixed on the front support material with screws. Loosen the screws, adjust the blocking fingers to the appropriate position, and tighten the screws.

6.5 Pressure adjustment

The working pressure of the machine tool hydraulic system can be adjusted from zero to the maximum pressure of the hydraulic system. According to the bending working conditions, first determine the bending pressure, and then determine the required pressure of the hydraulic system.

6.5.1

Formula method

The required bending pressure can be calculated by the following formula:

In the formula:

P: Load (kN)

P= 1.42×L×σ b ×S 2

1000×V

L: bending length (mm)

σ b : Material tensile strength (N/mm 2 )

S: Material plate thickness (mm)

V: The opening width of the selected lower mold

Commonly used unit conversion relationships are as follows: 1Kgf≈10N 1t≈10000N=10kN 1MPa≈10Bar

example 1:

Nominal pressure Pf=1350kN;

The maximum pressure of the hydraulic system Py=33.5MPa; Plate thickness S=2mm; Length L=3000mm;

The selected lower mold opening V=8×S=8×2=16mm; The tensile strength of the sheet is σ b =450N/mm 2 .

Required bending pressure F1 = (1.42×3000×450×22)/(1000×16)≈480kN

In fact, this value should be added to 10% of the required bending pressure to get the actual bending pressure:

F2 = F1 +F1×10%=480+480×10%=528kN

The required pressure of the hydraulic system P=(Py × F2)/Pf=(33.5 × 528)/1350≈13MPa

6.5.2 Look-up table method

For the convenience of calculation, the commonly used plate thickness, corresponding opening and bending pressure are drawn into a table (Figure 23 Bending pressure parameter table, P33) for easy query. When the value in the table is σ b =450N/mm 2 , the bending pressure per meter of length, in kN, is equal to the value calculated with the formula. If the plate σ b ≠ 450N/mm 2 , find the coefficient C corresponding to the tensile strength of the material, and then multiply C by the bending pressure found first to obtain the required bending pressure.

Example 2:

Nominal pressure Pf=1350kN;

The maximum pressure of the hydraulic system Py=33.5MPa;

Plate thickness S=2mm;

Length L=3000mm=3m;

The selected lower mold opening V=8×S=8×2=16mm;

The tensile strength of the sheet is σ b =600N/mm 2 .

Look up the table, when σ b =450N/mm 2 , the intersection of the two columns with plate thickness S=2mm and opening V=16mm is the bending pressure per meter length, F 3 =160kN

Check the function chart again, when σ b =600N/mm 2 , C=1.35

Then the required bending pressure F 1 = F 3 ×C×L=160×1.35×3=648kN

In fact, this value should be added to 10% of the required bending pressure to get the actual bending pressure:

F 2 = F 1 +F 1 ×10%=648+648×10%≈713kN

The required pressure of the hydraulic system P=(Py × F 2 )/Pf=(33.5 × 713)/1350≈17.5MPa

(F 1 - calculated bending pressure; F 2 - actual bending pressure; F 3 - bending pressure obtained from table lookup; P - required pressure of hydraulic system)

For the convenience of calculation, after the bending pressure F2 is obtained, the required pressure P of the hydraulic system can be found directly from the pressure conversion plate (Figure 22). (For example: when F2=900kN, P=225Bar=22.5MPa.)

According to the calculated required pressure of the hydraulic system, adjust the knob on the pressure gauge (Figure 22) to control the actual bending pressure.

Figure 22

— Be sure to adjust the working pressure according to calculations. If the working pressure is adjusted too small, the bending work cannot be completed; if the working pressure is adjusted too high, it will cause a waste of energy and affect the service life of the machine tool components.

Figure 23 Bending pressure parameter table

6.6 Instructions on the precision of parts

6.6.1

Effect of plate thickness on accuracy

When bending sheets with uneven thickness, the part will have an angular error. If the plate thickness differs by 0.1mm, when bending a small V-shaped opening, the angle error of the part will be about 2 ° to 3 ° ° ; when bending on a large V-shaped opening, the angle error of the part is less than 2° to 3° .

6.6.2

“Protruding” of bending machine

The workbench vertical plate and slide block of the bending machine have two points of contact with the frame. When P force is loaded over the entire length, the following deformation f will occur (Figure 24).

Figure 24

This machine tool uses pre-convexed workbench to offset the deformation of the workbench vertical plate and slider (Figure 25).

Figure 25

6.6.3 Unbalanced load

Offset loading refers to carrying out load work on the left or right side of the slider.

This machine tool generally does not allow off-load bending. Because when bending with eccentric load, the load column is elongated under the action of eccentric load force, so that there is non-parallelism between the workbench and the slider. At the same time, the torsion shaft is in danger of being damaged.

If eccentric load bending is required for processing special parts, the eccentric load force cannot exceed 10% of the bending pressure of the machine tool (Figure 26 eccentric load diagram).

6.6.4 Correction of bending angle error

When the bending angle is less than 110°, it can be corrected according to the formula ΔY=0.0055V×Δα.

(In the formula: ΔY bottom dead center correction value

V Select the opening of the mold Δα angle error value)

If the angle of the inspected part is greater than the drawing requirement, adjust the position of the bottom dead center downward according to the correction value ΔY; otherwise, adjust it upward.

Figure 26 Schematic diagram of eccentric load

7. Adjustment of machine tool accuracy

— During normal use, the following accuracy does not need to be adjusted. When the machine tool is overhauled, you can refer to the following methods to make adjustments. Since experience is very important during the adjustment process, it is not recommended that users make adjustments by themselves. You can contact the manufacturer.

7.1 Synchronization accuracy between slider and workbench

The torsion shaft is a component used to make the left and right cylinders run synchronously. During the movement of the slider, the parallelism between the slider and the workbench is ensured by the torsion axis.

There are bearing pairs at both ends of the torsion shaft installed on the left and right vertical plates. The left side cannot be adjusted, and the right bearing is installed in an adjustable eccentric sleeve. If the flatness error between the horizontal fitting surface of the upper mold on which the slider is installed and the lengthwise direction of the worktable is too large, the eccentric sleeve can be adjusted to reduce the parallelism between the left and right ends of the slider.

Remove the mold, stop the slider at any position (cannot fall on the mechanical stop), place a dial indicator on the workbench, touch the dial indicator probe to the horizontal joint surface of the upper mold where the slider is installed, and read The errors in the measured values at points A and B are found (Figure 27).

Figure 27

If the error is large, disassemble the gland at the right end of the torsion shaft, insert a cylindrical pin with an appropriate diameter into the optical hole of the eccentric sleeve (Figure 28), and rotate it left and right at a certain angle so that the error in the measurement values at A and B is less than 0.18mm. Then press the gland tightly so that the eccentric sleeve cannot rotate. Repeatedly check the errors of the two measurement values at A and B, and the operation is completed.

28

7.2 Parallelism between the slider and the workbench (equal height)

Adjust the screw rod e to the lowest position, place the two equal-height pads on the workbench (Figure 29), and then place the slider on the equal-height pads M and N (a=b), so that the slider is in contact with the two equal-height pads. There are no gaps between equal height gauge blocks. Remove the protective cover, loosen the chain, and rotate the sprocket f on the cylinder until the screw rod e hits the stopper d. Reinstall the chain and the slider can now move up and down.

Figure 29

Figure

Stop the slider at the bottom dead center. When the system is boosted, use a dial indicator to check whether the equal height values at A and B meet the requirements (Figure 30).

30

7.3 The verticality of the slider stroke to the worktable

Fix the dial indicator on the slider, place the square on the work surface, and put the dial indicator tip on the measuring surface of the square. When the slider moves downward 100mm, read the verticality error value from the dial indicator (Figure 31).

Figure

Adjust the set screw on the back of the guide rail (Figure 32) to adjust the verticality error of the slider stroke to the worktable. After the adjustment is completed, the gap between the guide rail surfaces is ≤0.05mm, and it cannot be too tight, otherwise the machine tool may not move quickly.

7.4 Back gauge accuracy

Figure 32

If you find that the backgauge beam is not parallel to the center of the mold during use, you can adjust it as follows.

Loosen the gland on the sliding block (only one of the two is loosened), inside is the nut for the transmission (Fig. 33). Turning the nut left and right can make the corresponding sliding block move forward and backward. Turn the nut to make the retaining beam parallel to the center of the mold, then tighten the nut.

Lubrication

This machine tool minimizes the large number of lubrication points and is easy to lubricate (Fig. 34 Lubrication diagram). Necessary lubrication is an important means to ensure the use of machine tools. The operator must be familiar with all parts of the machine tool that need lubrication and lubricate regularly.

Main lubrication points: fulcrums at both ends of the torsion shaft; guide rails (lubricate every day for a period of time after the test run); two slide blocks of the torsion shaft; back gauge polished rod and screw rod; for exposed wearing parts (no lubrication points), every week Lubricate three times, such as: cylinder, block, nut.

9.2 Hydraulic system

a.Hydraulic oil

Figure 34 Lubrication diagram

Check the oil level of the fuel tank regularly

First oil change after 500 operating hours

From now on, change the oil every 2000 working hours.

b.Filter

The filter element needs to be replaced regularly to avoid affecting the cleanliness of the hydraulic system and causing poor oil suction.

c.Air filter

The air filter is installed on the fuel tank

The machine tool is cleaned for the first time two months after commissioning, and is washed in solvent (gasoline, trichlorethylene)

From now on, clean it regularly every four months.

d. Connection of hydraulic components

If oil leakage occurs, tighten the pipe joint. If this does not help, replace the joint. Sometimes, the high-pressure oil pipe in the hydraulic oil circuit needs to be replaced.

If there is leakage in the valve block, please replace the O-ring or combined sealing ring in time.

9.3 Mechanical parts

Regularly inspect all mechanical parts, chain drives and guide rails.

9.4 Relief valve

This adjustment is very important for the long-term operation of the machine tool.

The normal setting value is equal to the maximum allowable pressure (see Table 2 Technical Parameters, P11).

If our technical service engineers find that the adjustment value of the relief valve exceeds the regulations, our factory will not fulfill any obligations regarding the relevant guarantee.

- Do not adjust the relief valve unless necessary, as it will affect the performance of the machine tool.
