Punching and Nibbling (N4)

Defines the status of the punching unit and identical to the "Stroke active" signal.
The motion of the workpiece (metal sheet) in relation to the punch is completed at instant t
Depending on the criterion defined for stroke initiation (refer to "Criteria for stroke initiation"),
high-speed output A is set for punch initiation ①.

The punching unit signals a punch movement via high-speed input E
This is triggered by signal A

The "Stroke active" signal is not reset again until the tool has moved away from the metal

signal ③. From this point in time onwards, the NC is in a waiting state. It simply waits for
cancellation of the "Stroke active" signal so it can initiate the next axis motion.
The next stroke can be initiated only after signal A
