What should be considered when using CNC press brake?
Close the rear protective door of the CNC press brake. Turn on the power. Turn on the switch on the control panel of CNC press brake. Then, start the oil pump. The CNC press brake does not operate at this time. Release all emergency stop switches.
Adjust stroke. Pay attention to adjusting the stroke when using it. You must test it before bending. There must be a gap of plate thickness when its upper die descends to the bottom. Otherwise, it will cause damage to the CNC press brake. The adjustment of the stroke also has electric quick adjustment.
For the selection of bending notches for CNC press brake, a notch with a width of 8 times the thickness of the plate should generally be selected.
Backgauge adjustment generally has electric quick adjustment and manual fine adjustment, which is the same as the shearing machine.
Press down the blue "reset" button on the pedal and the "reset rearguard" button on the electric box, ensuring that the two blue reset indicator lights are off.
Turn the function forwarding switch to the "auto" position and press the motor start button after the controller self-test is over.
The CNC press brake finds the reference point and loads the corresponding bending program. Ensure that the mold installed in the CNC press brake is consistent with the programmed mold. Ensure that the sheet material is consistent with the programming page.
Remove the lower blade of CNC press brake and clean it piece by piece. Select one side to install tightly. Check the straightness of the blade in the horizontal and vertical directions.
Remove the upper blade of CNC press brake and clean it piece by piece. Then, the operation is same with that of the lower blade.
The upper blade is fixed. We adjust the blade gap by adjusting the lower blade.
The left and right screws of the lower blade increase the clearance. Loosen the four bolts on the table of the lower blade.
Manually turn the upper blade down to the proper position. The operator adjusts at the blanking area of the CNC press brake.
Use a feeler gauge to roughly adjust to 0.5mm from the unoccupied part of the upper and lower blades.
Manually turn the blade to the middle position and adjust it to 0.5mm.
Manually turn the blade up to the right position where the upper and lower blades are not disengaged. The middle position is roughly adjusted to 0.5mm.
Manually turn the upper blade to the proper position and start fine adjustment.
Before working, you must check the surrounding area of CNC press brake for any objects that may cause harm to it. Make sure the surroundings are clean, especially backgauge. Check the position of the oil mark in the oil tank. Check the hydraulic part for leaks.
The CNC press brake should be operated by professors. The operators must wear the corresponding labor protection supplies.
After turning on the power switch of the CNC press brake, do not start the oil pump immediately. Start the oil pump only after the computer screen displays normal.
After starting the CNC press brake, run it for 2 to 3 minutes without anything. Run the slide block at full stroke for 2 to 3 times. Check the motor and CNC press brake for noise. If the temperature is low, the oil tank and oil circuit must be preheated.

How to maintain CNC press brake?
Sometimes, there is the large or small bending angles during CNC press brake operates. It may be that the plate is uneven or the plate thickness has changed. It is also possible that the shaft in the CNC press brake is caused by deviation.
The oil pump of CNC press brake is too noisy or heats fast. Even, the oil pump is damaged. The oil pump suction line leaks or the oil tank liquid level is too low, causing to suck. The oil temperature is too low and the oil viscosity is too high, resulting in high oil absorption resistance. The oil filter at the suction port is clogged. Coupling installation is too tight to make the motor shaft and the oil pump shaft nonconcentric.
The CNC press brake system is pressure-free or cannot be built up. The oil pump rotates incorrectly. Whether the pressure gauge is damaged. Whether the pressure control valve has an electrical signal or the valve is blocked. The pressure cartridge valve is blocked or stuck that cannot seal the oil.
With the continuous development of CNC press brake manufacturing technology, CNC press brake has the advantages of high positioning accuracy, convenience, zero-activity disturbance compensation, and good consistency of processed products.
Check whether the compensation deflection of the compensation cylinder is large so that the zero position cannot be completely restored.
Check whether the quick clamp and grating ruler is loose.
Check whether there is any change in the bottom dead center of each bending.
Check whether the bow-shaped plate is installed in a standard way and whether the screw hole is deadlocked.
The large bending angle error of CNC press brake can also be caused by changes in the sheet, such as thickness, material, and stress。
There is inaccurate positioning of CNC press brake that whether the zero offset value of the proportional valve is appropriate or not. It may be impossible to return because the positioning cannot reach the bottom dead center.
After each shift, clean the work area of CNC press brake by removing all debris with a dry cloth. Clean the tools, bench, supports, slide guides and other accessories. Clean the backstops and guides of the backgauge. Do not use compressed air for cleaning.
The lubrication parts are sufficiently greased.
The motor and oil pump of CNC press brake operate normally without noise and overheating.
The safety protection device is safe and reliable.
Check whether the pressure of the hydraulic system is within the rated range.
The indicator is sensitive and reliable.
When repairing after the end of production, the slider needs to be lowered to the lowest point.
Check whether the fixed part of the mold is loose before work.
When working, the CNC press brake must not exceed the maximum pressure that is 160KN.
