4.1 Manual detection of mounting position

Try to determine the values X, R and Angle of both sensors as good as possible and use it as an input for the press brake controller. See drawings in chapter Recommended mounting positions for the position of X, R and Angle. Then make a test bending to 90,0 degrees.

Measure the result angle with a separate tool at the same position as the laser measure the plate. If the result is for example 91,0 degrees you have to reduce your mounting angle settings of 1 degree (front or back sensor), for example 39,0 degrees instead of 40,0 degrees. Then test again. The result angle should be now 90,0 degrees.

The parameters X- and R-position are not that critical. An accuracy of 0,5mm is sufficient. Both parameters refers to the centre of the laser beam lens. Please have a look at the technical drawings.
