GENERAL SAFETY NORMS

WARNING The ERAFORM EF35 has been manufactured according to state-of-the-art technology and in compliance with safety regulations officially accepted. Nevertheless the machine can be dangerous for the operator or a third person if used in a improper manner. It is important therefore to read the following safety norms. WARNING Use the machine only and specifically for the use which it has been manufactured for and with full respect of the general safety norms. The Manufacturer will not be liable for any injury or damage to objects due to an incorrect use of the machine. Verify that the line voltage is always compatible with the power supply for which the machine has been manufactured for. Make sure that only trained personnel operates the machine. Do not use the machine in an environment containing explosive material. Do not use the machine in a humid or wet environment. Do not expose the machine to the rain. Store the machine in a dry and safe place. Keep away unauthorised personnel when the machine is both in motion and switched off. Do not touch parts in motion. Do not operate on mechanisms in motion. Do not remove or tamper with safety devices. Do not wear loose clothing. Non authorised persons should be prohibited from entering the machines working area. Go to a safe position when the machine is in use. Never stand next to the machine on the opposite side to the controls. Avoid accidental start of the machine. Electrical repair on the electrical panel of the machine is to be effected only by qualified personnel. Switch off power supply when operating on the electrical system. Fix the machine to the ground by using the appropriate fixing points. Do not tamper with electrical and electronic circuits in any way for safety reasons and in order not to invalidate the warranty conditions. Disconnect main power cable prior to transporting the machine. Do not modify the machine structure. Use only era accessories. Any alterations will cause the invalidation of the warranty. The Manufacturer reserves the right to not supply accessories or replacement parts in case the machine has been altered.

2. ELECTRONIC CARD
The ERAFORM machine has an electronic card (Fig. 1) which is easy to use and ensures better and safer work.

4. EMERGENCY STOP AND RESET

In dangerous situations for the operators health or if there is risk of breakage of any mechanical component of the machine, press immediately the emergency mushroom head button. Such operation interrupts immediately the electrical power supply to the machine and any motion in course. When danger has ceased, reset the mushroom head button by turning it in the same direction of the arrow, in order to reset the normal working conditions of the machine and then press reset button R.

5. START UP OF MACHINE
The plug of the main power cable can be inserted after checking the exact correspondence between the voltage of the machine and the line voltage. Select 1 (ON) on the main switch near the door of the electrical cabinet for electrical power supply of the machine ( each time a working cycle ends, switch off the machine selecting 0 (OFF) on the main switch ). Check that the mushroom head emergency button has not been pressed. In case the emergency button is pressed, turn it in the opposite sense to the direction of the arrow until resetting it. Press button R (machine reset) to supply power to the electrical devices of the machine.
6. OPERATION MODE SELECTION

The ERAFORM EF35 machine can work in 3 operation modes:

BAR TWISTER CURLER PRESS
WARNING: MAKE SURE THE MACHINE IS USED ONLY IN NORMAL WORKING CONDITIONS AND WITH THE MANDREL PROTECTION COVER. The machine can be used in Bar Twister operation mode by pressing seconds. The operation mode is displayed as in Fig.2 button for 4

01 123
Bar Twister mode
Fig.2 Bar Twister operation mode
Check that maximum pressure selection is switched off ( OFF ) with Bar Twister operation mode, otherwise motor will not be able to start up. Also check that machine selection is set on position 1 - TORC. ( bar twister ).

To set the CURLER operation mode, press for four seconds plus button until the following data are displayed (Fig.3)
02 200
01 123
Curler operat.mode
Fig.3 Curler operation mode
Check that maximum pressure selection is switch off (OFF) with Curler operation mode, otherwise motor will not be able to start up. Also check that machine selection is set on position 2-RICC. (bar curler). PRESS operation mode can be set by pressing displayed (Fig. 4): + until the following is

Press mode
To go back to the bar twister or curler operation mode after selection of press operation mode, press menu/esc button (this step is not necessary if Bar twister or Curler operation modes have been selected before). .

7. HOW TO SET UP BAR TWISTER / CURLER PARAMETERS The BAR TWISTER or CURLER operation mode work parameters can be set in the following manner : after setting operation mode ( Bar twister or Curler ) , press once the menu/esc button to display the first figure on the left (Fig.5) which indicates the number of rotations that are to be effected. To set the number of rotations, use buttons:
Press enter degrees.
button to go to the next figure (Fig.6) indicating number of
The degree setting can be effected by pressing plus and minus buttons ( same procedure applying to number of rotations setting). To confirm set values press enter again. Fig. 6 shows a setting for 3 rotations and 180 degrees .

8. START UP OF BAR TWISTER OPERATION MODE

BEFORE SETTING BAR TWISTER OPERATION MODE, REMOVE TRANSMISSION SHAFT AND/OR CHAIN FOR CURLING IF CURLER OPERATION MODE HAS BEEN SET PREVIOUSLY.
Before selecting Bar twister operation mode work parameters, check that mandrel protection cover is shut. Before starting a job cycle , set up the rotation sense of the bar holder mandrel by pressing the appropriate buttons:
The rotation sense will be displayed in the following manner (Fig. 8 and 9):
02 010
01 123
Clockwise rotation
Fig.8 Clockwise rotation
02 010
01 123
Anticlockwise rotat.
Fig.9 Anticlockwise rotation
Furthermore, it is also possible to select the rotation speed of the bar holder mandrel through the appropriate selection switch. Press START 1 + START 2 buttons to start working cycle. The mandrel stops when it has moved into position. Release buttons and press once more START 1 + START 2 for an elastic return of the material. Remove workpiece and press START1 + START2 again till start position (zero) is reached. Whilst working, job cycle can be stopped by replacing the set values with the new values of the current position. If the value displayed at end of the working cycle is different from 00 000 and therefore does not enable to set a different mandrel rotation sense, press enter to zero display. By releasing one of the two buttons, the working cycle will be immediately interrupted.

9. START UP OF CURLER OPERATION MODE

Before starting a job cycle after setting up work parameters, make sure that mandrel protection cover is shut and that the hexagonal transmission shaft has been inserted correctly. You can set the rotation speed of the chain for curling, through the appropriate selection switch as well as the advanced position of the cursor through the end of stroke cam placed on the cylinder protection cover. To start the working cycle press START 1 + START 2. The cursor advances and moves into position, whereas the chain for curling starts to turn . When into position, release buttons and re-press them to enable double release of the brake and discharge of the workpiece. When the material is released, press START 1 + START 2 again to withdraw cursor to the initial position and place the chain for curling on the starting point. The pressure of the cursor can be regulated through the appropriate pressure-gauge of the machine. The chain for curling could not be in start position (zero) when Curler operation mode is activated. Therefore it is important to press START 1 + START 2 to turn the hexagonal tool holder into position.

PRESS OPERATION MODE
Setting up of work parameters is not possible with the press operation mode . The stopping position of the cursor can be regulated through the cam on the cylinder protection cover. The cursor goes forward by pressing forward button button first), whereas the tool returns by pressing RETURN button first). + START 2 (press FORWARD return button + START 1 (press
Before effecting any job with press operation mode, set maximum pressure electrovalve by selecting ON on MAX PRESSIONE selection switch (right knob).
