VDP Analyzer from Schuler reveals causes of stamping defects

Schuler has introduced the VDP (visual die protection) Analyzer. VDP, developed in 2019, detects foreign objects or other sources of danger in real time and stops the press before damage occurs. The analyzer is a further development that also can determine the causes of faults.
In the visualization, deflections in the time curve can be used to gain an overview of when deviations from the normal state have occurred. The user now can call up the images associated with these points in time and see that, for instance, parts are lying on a centering pin and are not threaded, or that punching scrap keeps piling up in a particular scrap chute.
Appropriate changes then can be made to prevent future production interruptions. The system also allows the export of the time series and image data for documentation and later comparison.
