About the Mode
When operators step on the safety mat, or software puts the bender into a Zero Energy State mode. In this state, all motion axes are completely disabled, and energy to all axes is blocked or stopped.
We strongly recommend that you require this feature for any CNC bender that you consider purchasing. Benders with this feature are much safer than benders without it.
 |
The only device that can move in this mode is the chuck grippers/jaws. |
