What about over-travel on high-speed presses and how to fix the problem?

    High-speed punch press overtravel is a condition that needs to be dealt with promptly, and here are some specific ways to solve this problem:
   First, the emergency stop button should be pressed immediately to stop the punch press from running quickly to prevent more serious equipment damage and safety accidents.
    Next, carefully inspect the condition of the mold and the stamped part. Look for any damage, deformation or incorrect installation of the mold, and whether the stamping part is abnormally jammed on the slide. If the cause is the mold or the stamping part, it needs to be repaired or adjusted in time.
   Then, check the travel limit switch in the electrical system. It may be malfunctioning, loose, or shifted in position, making it impossible to accurately detect travel. If it is faulty, it needs to be repaired, tightened or repositioned.

   If the over-travel is due to incorrect parameter settings in the control system, it is necessary to access the control system to re-check and re-adjust the travel related parameters.
    For some high-speed presses with manual reset function, manual reset operation can be performed carefully according to the guidelines in the equipment operation manual. However, during the operation, ensure your own safety to avoid being pinched by the equipment.
   In addition, check the mechanical transmission parts, such as connecting rods, crankshafts, screws and other parts, to see if there is any wear, jamming or loosening. If so, the damaged parts should be replaced or repaired in a timely manner, and the necessary lubrication should be carried out.
    In short, to solve the problem of over-travel of high-speed punch presses need to be calm judgment, careful operation, if necessary, to seek the help of professional and technical personnel.
