JP Series Electro Press

Overview
JP Series presses allow for programmable force, speed, distance and dwell time. Utilizing the onboard 32bit processor plus feedback from the built-in load cell and encoder, the press is capable of performing complex assembly and testing operations. Janome has developed user friendly software for easy set up of pressing operations and comparative analysis to ensure parts are being assembled according to specifications.

High Precision
The JP series press is repeatable to ±1% of the maximum load value for a particular model. The JP053 model would be accurate to .5kg or 1 lb. Janome has selected high-resolution servomotors and precision ground ball screws to ensure repeat accuracy of ±0.01mm.

Sensor Setting
You can program multiple sensor settings to ensure loads are met at defined points during the press operation. Sensor settings look at load, position, distance and differential points to ensure that the press signature is following a well-defined path throughout the entire cycle. If the signature exceeds the limits in a sensor setting, the press will alarm the operator of the defect and specify which sensor setting was violated.

Multiple Configuration
Janome offers presses in three different configurations and seven load ranges, varying from 50.0kg – 8,000kg. We can provide a model for nearly any small part assembly application. If you have a bench-top assembly process that requires more control, Janome offers a stand-alone type press. If you are building a custom machine with minimum space constraints, you may require the ultra compact unit type press. A head type configuration is also offered and can be mounted either on a bench top or in a fully automatic machine.

Programming
Janome has developed a user-friendly dialog based interface. The software requires that you select the type of pressing operation wanted and set max load and distance parameters. This can be done for single-stage or two-stage pressing operations.

PC Software
The JP Series comes standard with data sampling software to display a pressure curve at the end of the press cycle and outputs a comma delimited file containing load and position to a PC. Program parameters can also be sent out with the data sampling software such as sensor results.

Interface
Janome provideds 17 inputs and 16 outputs of pre-designated I/O. The I/O allows you to load programs and start cycle as well as several other operations from an external controller.
