Abstract
A press machine includes a display unit which displays a first image in a circular shape corresponding to a rotation of an eccentric mechanism and representing one stroke of slide operation and a second image in a circular-arc shape corresponding to an operation of an attachment device interlocked with the press machine, and an operation unit which receives an input operation. The first image indicates at least one slide operation region. The second image is placed concentrically with the first image in relation to the slide operation region. The second image has opposed ends each allowed to move in response to the input operation in a direction in which the second image extends.
Claims21
A press machine performing press working by transforming a rotation of an electric motor into a reciprocating linear motion of a slide by using an eccentric mechanism which transforms a rotational motion into a linear motion, the press machine comprising:
- a display which displays a first image in a circular shape corresponding to a rotation of the eccentric mechanism and representing one stroke of slide operation and a second image in a circular-arc shape corresponding to an operation of an attachment interlocked with the press machine;
- and
- a touch panel type user interface which is integrated with the display and receives an input operation formed by touching operation,
- the first image indicating at least one slide operation region,
- the second image being placed concentrically with the first image in relation to the at least one slide operation region, and
- the second image having opposed ends each allowed to move in response to the input operation in a direction in which the second image extends.
A method of setting an operation for a press machine which performs press working by transforming a rotation of an electric motor into a reciprocating linear motion of a slide by using an eccentric mechanism which transforms a rotational motion into a linear motion, the method comprising:
- displaying a first image in a circular shape corresponding to a rotation of the eccentric mechanism displayed at a display and representing one stroke of slide operation and a second image in a circular-arc shape placed concentrically with the first image;
- and
- setting a range in which an attachment interlocked with the press machine operates by performing an input operation to the second image by touching operation from a touch panel type user interface which is integrated with the display.
