DELEM DA58T CNC Press Brake (finding reference point) – III

DELEM DA-58T Controller

High-precision press brakes are used to bend sheet metal and other materials to precise angles and shapes. They are typically used in manufacturing applications where high accuracy and repeatability are required, such as the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries.

In the previous two articles, we explained to you how to complete the installation of Delem DA58T and the tool configuration of Delem DA58T CNC press brake. When the above two preparations are completed, we can further understand and operate the Delem DA58T control system. In this article, we explain how to use the Delem DA-58T to perform a reference point check on a CNC press brake. The following are basic guidelines for performing this process:

Turn on each power switch of the machine in turn

1. Turn on the main power supply of the power distribution cabinet: Before we turn on the machine, we need to close the door of the power distribution cabinet of the hydraulic press brake and turn the handle of the electric cabinet clockwise to make it in a locked state. At this time, the power supply of the main electrical cabinet will also be turned on.

So far, the circuit system of the hydraulic press brake has been fully started, and the Delem DA-58T controller has also started to start and check the system. Wait for a while, the controller enters the system standby state. At this point, we need to check the reference point of the cnc press brake.

Perform a reference point check

Step 1: In the Delem DA-58T controller, click the manual button at the bottom to switch to the manual operation page. At this time, you can see that the parameters corresponding to the X-axis and Y-axis are blank values;


Select the manual page at the bottom and hit the launch button on the top right
Select the manual page at the bottom and hit the launch button on the top right

Step 2: Click the start button in the up right corner of the screen, the hydraulic press brake will automatically start the inspection program, and start to check the related operations of the X-axis and R-axis;

Step 3: After the X-axis and R-axis inspection procedures are completed, lightly step on the foot switch to press the slider down to check the reference point of the Y-axis. After the slider reaches the lowest point, it will automatically return to the top, and the Y-axis is completed at this time;

Step 4: After all the reference point checks are completed, the reference values of the Y-axis and X-axis will be displayed on the screen. So far, the reference point check of the press brake has been completed.

The above is the specific operation of how to perform a reference point check on the CNC Press Brake, I hope it can help you. If you have completed the above operations, you can continue to read our next article:
