Lube Machine At Bend Count

What is It?

This property is a bend count that instructs CNC Processor to enable the machine lube event when the bend count reaches a preset value.

Value

The value is set from 1 to any value greater than 1 like this:

Lube Machine At Bend Count= 4000

The value of 4000 in this example represents 4000 motions of the bend arm. Therefore, the machine would be lubed about every 2000 bends using the 4000 count.

Calculating the Value

1. Calculate the value by figuring how many bends you may produce in a shift.
2. Determine how many times you want to lube the machine during a shift.
3. Multiply the number of bends X 2
4. Multiply that answer by the number of machine lubes you would like per shift
