    It protects your press and dies from overloads without the need to change or readjust settings from die to die. That is because the AutoSet 1500 creates load limits (or setpoints) automatically—for any job. You never have to calculate and enter settings yourself.

    AutoSet 1500 is proportional to the force being exerted by the press. The two strain links provided with the AutoSet 1500 are called differential strain links. The part number on your links should be 9641601 (30' cable), 9641602 (100' cable), or 9641801 (with Hirschmann connector), depending on the cable length or connector you choose.

  • Page 11: How Autoset 1500 Works

    AutoSet 1500 How AutoSet 1500 works AutoSet is so easy to use because it creates and displays load setpoints automatically. You never have to calculate and enter setpoints. Once AutoSet is installed and properly calibrated, there are only two settings you have to make.
  • Page 12 AutoSet 1500 Example of how setpoints are calculated To better understand how AutoSet 1500 automatically creates setpoints, let's look at an example. Let's say AutoSet is installed on a 50 ton press. The percent tolerance setting is at 10%, indicating that AutoSet will create setpoints 10% higher than the highest measured load during the sample period.

    Installation Mounting and connecting strain links The two strain links provided with the AutoSet 1500 are called differential strain links. The part number on your links should be 9641601, 9641602, or 9641603, depending on the cable length or connector you chose. If you plan to use other strain links, contact Data Instruments to find out if they will work with the AutoSet 1500.

    You need to make a few test press runs to ensure that AutoSet 1500 is working properly and will stop on a fault condition. You will have to load tonnage-related settings and then run a test tool (refer to Chapter 4 (Operation) for more assistance).

  • Page 30: Chapter 3 Autoset 1500 Calibration

    Chapter 3 AutoSet 1500 Calibration This chapter explains calibration of AutoSet. Calibration means adjusting AutoSet 1500 so tonnage readings are accurate. After calibration, the tonnage AutoSet displays will indicate the true tonnage applied by the press. You must calibrate the AutoSet after installation and any time you move the strain links to a different location on the press, restres the tie rods, or perform major repair work to the press frame.

  • Page 31: Types Of Calibration Kits You Can Use

    You can use either a Wintriss Load Analyzer (WLA) with calibration kit or another AutoSet 1500 with calibration kit to read the tonnage applied to the load cells. How to use each type of calibration kit is described below.

    To set the dial switches, use a screwdriver to aim the pointer at the number you want. The switch for the most significant digit (the "1" in 100 for instance) is at the left . When done, replace the display module. AutoSet 1500 User Manual Ch 3 1088500...
  • Page 34 You should now see a number between 170 and 190 on the display. If no calibration number appears, change the TENSION/COMPRESSION switch to the opposite position. If the calibration number is incorrect, stop the calibration procedure. Call Data Instruments for help. AutoSet 1500 User Manual Ch 3 1088500...
  • Page 35 You are done setting up the WLA calibration unit. The WLA will now read the correct tonnage when you apply a load to the load cells. Go to the procedure titled "Calibrating your AutoSet 1500" to set up the press and calibrate your AutoSet 1500.

  • Page 47: Linearity Check

    If the tonnages disagree, the problem may be the positioning of your strain links or twisting forces on the press. Consult your service representative or Data Instruments. Note, however, that perfect linearity is unachievable. Typically tonnages are 5% to 10% off at 20-80% of press capacity. AutoSet 1500 User Manual Ch 3 1088500...

  • Page 48: Chapter 4 Autoset 1500 Operation

    Chapter 4 AutoSet 1500 Operation The AutoSet 1500 load monitor automatically sets high tonnage limits based on measured load. It measures the load at two points on the press—the points where its two strain links are mounted. Operation is very simple. You make only two settings. This chapter tells you how to make these settings.
