The press is used for splitting, adjusting, maintenance and try-out operations on dies and moulds (thermoplastics, die casting, thermosetting, rubber and blanking). The BV series is suitable for small and medium-sized moulds. Three models are available depending on the platen dimensions: BV 26E, BV 28E and BV 30E. Platen dimensions are available from 980 ×750 mm up to 1500×1000 mm. The very sturdy structure consists of a welded and normalized steel basement and cast iron baseplate. Hydraulic system is controlled by electronic servo proportional valves.

All E models are equipped with user-friendly graphics control panel, monitored through Siemens PLC commanded by Touch Panel installed in the pulpit station.

All components are purchased from well-known manufacturers, such as for example: hydraulic system Bosch-Rexroth, Hawe; electrical system Siemens, Schneider Elektrik, Phoenix Contact, Weidmüller. This guarantees a general good functionality of the press, and a quick procurement all over the world.

EC Declaration of Conformity and compliance with safety provisions in accordance with the current EC standards.

STRUCTURE

Press with 4 chrome-plated alloy steel columns, structures made of welded and normalized steel, nd a sturdy cast iron baseplate to guarantee high rigidity and bending resistance.
Basement embedded in a robust arc-welded structure, that is highly rigid and flexion-proof
2 hydraulic cylinders for the upper plate actuation guarantee an optimal distribution of surface pressure.
Easy clamping force setting, by means of the touch panel.
Room-saving arrangement of the hydraulic power unit with considerable noise reduction in press upper part.
The hydraulic power unit can be easily and safely reached by means of a specific ladder.
Very long maintenance-free press ram precision guides, with bronze bushings lubricated for life with teflon coating

ACCESSORIES

• Hydraulic ejector cylinder in the lower plate (option)
• Patented single shot energy accumulator
• Automatic special wax injection unit
• Hydraulic auxiliary cylinder control unit (max. 2+2)
• Separate hydraulic power unit on trolley with connections for hydraulic cylinders (4+4) (option)
• Production simulation

STANDARD MOVEMENTS OF THE PLATENS

The upper plate slides vertically by hydraulic actuation on the four guide columns and can be overturned 360° through reduction gears. The upper plate clamping in the exact horizontal position depends on the four hydraulic actuated locating pegs.

The lower plate is hydraulically extensible, sliding on the base guided by ball bearings. It allows to draw the lower part of the die or mould out of the press into an effortless working position.

All functions are comfortably performed from the touch panel.

CONTROL PANEL

TOUCH PANEL FOR BV-E SERIES
Millutensil was the first worldwide to introduce a TOUCH PANEL on its spotting presses. The electronic PLC handles all the functions of the press (BV-E series). Uncluttered, clear and ergonomic, the panel offers many advantages as well as vast flexibility in customizing features, including command of the auxiliary cylinders.

Siemens S7-1500 control easy to program and use.

The pulpit station is equipped with a touch panel with a user-friendly graphics to simplify the use of the spotting press. All working movements and functions are graphically shown on the display.

Two-hands command.
Due to security reasons, some functions can be activated only through traditional buttons (i.e. downstroke must be carried out with two-hands, in compliance with EU-UL-CSA safety legislation).

In the pulpit station a new Siemens multi-touch ITP 1000 can be embedded (OPTIONAL).
This new Siemens multi-touch ITP 1000 is supported by a dedicated app called MyMILL© App, that has been developed by Millutensil as a result of the ongoing cooperation between Millutensil and their customers.

PARALLELISM CONTROL SYSTEM OF PLATENS
Electronic upper plate parallelism anti-unbalance safety device, protection of press and moulds.

The upper plate up/down stroke is based on a fully electronic management of the main hydraulic system, which through special proportional servo-valves controls and manages, with maximum accuracy, the oil flow generating the parallel movement of the 2 up/down stroke cylinders.

The control system includes measurement devices (Balluff absolute linear Encoder with magnetic codification), which continuously check the press upper plate position and parallelism compared to the lower plate, and which are located on the sides outside the upper plate, where columns are.
The value is dynamically displayed on the touch panel for the entire stroke.
If the preset limit parameters are exceeded, the ram closing movement is immediately disabled and the parallelism condition is automatically restored by means of the up stroke function. Parameters can be exceeded for example because of slides or hydraulic cylinders not retracted, or tools forgot in the mould (scrapers, grinders, slip gauges, hammers etc.).

Thanks to this system, both press and moulds are protected from potential damages.
