An advance measuring field is located below the protected field. If is in-
terrupted, the dynamic muting is started. The dynamic muting ensures 
that the danger zone between upper tool and plate is monitored up to a 
remaining gap of 6 mm during the downward movement.

The distance of the advance measuring field to the lower edge of the 
protected field is constant. The distance to the top edge of the protected 
field varies according to the length of the overrun.

down with the upper tool.
2. The advance measuring field touches the workpiece. The outputs 
Mute1 and Mute2 at the receiver are set = 0.

Please note that the central segments are 1 mm behind the 
bending line. With box bending you must ensure that the side 
panels of the box do not encroach into this area.
