4.5 Protected field modes
4 Function description
4.5.2 Box bending protected field mode
Box bending protected field mode4-Funktion_Schutzfeldmodus_Kastenbiegen
With box bending protected field mode, the front segments of the pro-
tected field are blanked. This protected field mode is used for workpiec-
es that need to be bent several times, e.g. a box. Interruption of the front 
segments is to be expected and does not cause the press stroke to 
stop.
The central segments of the protected field are behind the bending line. 
The box's side panels must not encroach into the central segments.
If the central or rear segments of the protected field are interrupted, the 
OSSDs switch to the OFF state.

The box bending protected field mode is only active for one press stroke 
and must be acknowledged by the operator before it is initiated.

WARNING!
Crushing and trapping of fingers or hands!
With box bending protected field mode, the front segments of 
the protected field are blanked.
Around the bending line there is an increased risk of crushing 
and trapping of fingers or hands.
Make sure that the workpiece is handled correctly (see 
Chapter 3, “Safety”).
