Operation and functions of the press Maintenance and servicing of the press Information describing the press system used, its design, operation and maintenance is contained in separate instructions. For further information, refer to the "Instructions for Use - SCHMIDT Manual workstation" respectively "Assembly Instructions SCHMIDT Components for automation".
As part of a press system together with SCHMIDT components for automation. In this case, the press system/tool has to be designed in such a way that is not possible to reach into the hazard zone.
Press operations can heat up tools and workpieces. There is a risk of coming into contact with the heated parts. This can result in burns to the body. Heated parts can also cause fires. Wear protective clothing. Install an appropriate protective device. TorquePress 520-560 – V2.1 ® SCHMIDT...
Measures for noise reduction The stroke speed of the press has a significant influence on the noise level value. Reducing the speed reduces the noise emission. For further information, refer to the "Instructions for Use - SCHMIDT Manual workstation" respectively "Assembly...
The "force" signal is detected via an integrated monitoring force sensor. These signals are processed and evaluated in process data acquisition. The results are then transmitted to the connected control unit. TorquePress 520-560 – V2.1 ® SCHMIDT...
Improper transport, installation and commissioning is prone to accidents and can cause damage or malfunctions to the delivered components for which SCHMIDT Technology does not grant any liability or guarantee. Delivery Check the delivered components for visible transport damage.
Mount the lifting screws at the frame. Attach the transport equipment at the lifting screws. Carefully lift the frame. The frame may swing out. Pay attention to the center of mass of the frame. TorquePress 520-560 – V2.1 ® SCHMIDT...

CAUTION Dimension of frame system not suitable If you ordered a press without the standard frame from SCHMIDT Technology, you must install the press onto a suitable frame system. If the frame system is not adequately dimensioned, problems such as the production of defective parts or even damage to the press system can occur.
Ram extension at home After the reference run, which is used to tare the force measurement, the ram moves to the TDC position. The taring takes place via the spindle position rotation. TorquePress 520-560 – V2.1 ® SCHMIDT...
* If the reference run is not started from the home position but lower, the ram moves in negative direction. Adjusting the working stroke The individual parameters of the working stroke are defined in the control unit. For further information, refer to the "Instructions for Use - SCHMIDT Manual workstation" respectively "Assembly Instructions SCHMIDT Components for automation".
