Frequently Asked Questions - W1.5×1220Z Vevor

How to adjust the clamping pressure?

Place a workpiece in the brake, then adjust the nuts on the threaded connecting rod: tighten UPWARDS to increase pressure, DOWNWARDS to decrease. Lock the blade and test until medium resistance is felt during clamping.

How to set the back stop?

Loosen the lock nut and washer, perform your bend stopping at the top of the stroke, then tighten the nut and washer against the stop block. The bending angle will then be repeated until reset.

What materials can I bend with this machine?

This press brake is designed for mild steel up to 1.5 mm thick (16 Ga). Ensure the edges are cut square and the material is clean and dry.

How to align the clamping fingers?

Loosen the adjustment screws at the rear of the hold-down assembly, then insert an Allen key into the holes of the eccentric hub to move the fingers forward or backward. Check parallelism with the edge of the clamping block.

What safety precautions should I take?

Wear safety glasses, leather gloves, and non-slip shoes. Keep your hands away from the clamping beam and stand to the side of the machine while bending. Do not force the machine beyond its capacity.

How to maintain the machine?

Check daily for hazardous conditions, tighten bolts, clean the machine and area weekly, lubricate oil ports with 5-6 drops of 30W oil at both ends. Apply anti-rust lubricant to unpainted surfaces.

What if the bends are inaccurate?

Check finger alignment, equal back stop distance on both sides, and clamping pressure. Adjust according to procedures in the manual. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to install the counterweight?

Have an assistant hold the counterweight, remove the two hex bolts, slide the counterweight rod into the receiver tube until it stops, then tighten the bolts. Do not use the counterweight handle to increase bending force.

Can I bend sheet lengths shorter than the capacity?

Yes, but do not exceed the maximum thickness for shorter lengths. Use appropriate dies and adjust clamping pressure accordingly.

Where to find spare parts?

Spare parts are listed in the manual with references and quantities. Contact your dealer or the manufacturer (Vevor) to order necessary parts.

WARNING

The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions or situations that could occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors that cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

Important:

Your machine may be shipped with a rustproof waxy oil coating on the exposed unpainted metal surfaces. To remove this protective coating, use a degreaser or solvent cleaner. For a thorough cleaning, parts will occasionally have to be removed. DO NOT USE acetone or other cleaners that may damage painted surfaces.

Follow manufacturer's label instructions when using any type of cleaning product. After cleaning, wipe unpainted metal surfaces with a light coat of quality oil or grease for protection.

WARNING

DO NOT USE gasoline or other petroleum products to clean the machine.

They have low flash points and can explode or cause fire.

CAUTION

When using cleaning solvents work in a well-ventilated area. Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled.

Assembly

IMPORTANT: Consider the following when looking for a suitable location place the machine:

1. Overall weight of the machine.
2. Weight of material being processed.
3. Sizes of material to be processed through the machine.
4. Space needed for auxiliary stands, work tables, or other machinery
5. Clearance from walls and other obstacles.
6. Maintain an adequate working area around the machine for safety.
7. Have the work area well illuminated with proper lighting.
8. Keep the floor free of oil and make sure it is not slippery.
9. Remove scrap and waste materials regularly, and make sure the area is free from obstructing objects.
10. If long lengths of material are to be fed into the machine, make sure that they will not extend into any aisles.

Before beginning assembly, take note of the following precautions and suggestions.

1. Is the machine bolted to the pallet? Before attempting any of the assembly procedures, remove all of the loose parts and hardware and unbolt the machine from the pallet.
2. LEVELING: The machine should be sited on a level, concrete floor. Provisions for securing it should be in position prior to placing the machine. The accuracy of any machine depends on its precise placement on the mounting surface.
3. FLOOR: This tool distributes a large amount of weight over a small area. Make certain that the floor is capable of supporting the weight of the machine, work stock, and the operator. The floor should also be a level surface. If the unit wobbles or rocks once in place, be sure to eliminate it by using shims.
4. WORKING CLEARANCES: Take into consideration the size of the material to be processed. Make sure that you allow enough space for the machine to operate freely.

Anchoring the Machine

1. Position the machine on a firm and level concrete floor.
2. Maintain a safe operator distance around the machine.
3. Anchor the machine to the floor, as shown in the diagram, using bolts and expansion plugs or sunken tie rods to connect through holes in the base of the stand. (Pic.1)

Attaching the Counterweight

1. Have a helper hold the counterweight.
2. Back off the two hex bolts and slide the counterweight rod into the receiver.
3. When the rod is flush with the bottom of the receiver, tighten the hex bolts. (Pic.2)

NOTE

DO NOT use the counterweight handle to raise the bending leaf. You damage the hinges or the bending leaf.

Adjusting the Stop Rod

The stop rod is used for repeat bending when you want the bending stop at the same position each time.

1. Loosen the stop nut and washer and make your bend, stopping at the top of the bend.
2. Tighten the nut and washer up to the stop block.
3. The bending angle can now be repeated until reset by the operator.

Adjusting the Setback

Setback is the distance from the front edge of the finger to the front of the clamp block as shown in the picture. This distance is determined by the gauge (thickness) of the piece part and the inside radius of the bend. Setback is typically 1-1/2 to 2 times the material thickness. (Pic. 4)

1. To adjust, make sure all the fingers are properly aligned with each other and the hold down assembly is not locked in the down position.
2. Loosen the setscrews (C) at the back of the hold down assembly (Pic. 5).
3. Insert a tool, such as an Allen wrench, into one of the spoke holes of the eccentric hub and rotate it, which moves the hold down assembly either forward or back.
4. When the fingers are at the correct setback distance and parallel to the clamp block edge, tighten the setscrews (C).

Adjusting the Clamping Pressure

CAUTION

1. Excessive clamping pressure can "pre-load" and permanently distort the material. Do not bend material heavier than the rated capacity, even in short lengths.
2. Use material with square-sheared edges (a rolled edge will cause bowing). Bending a round object will warp or nick the clamp edge. Adjust the clamp pressure accordingly for different metal gauges. Do not use a pipe extension on the clamp bars to get more leverage.

The clamping pressure may have to be adjusted as the thickness of the piece part changes. A suitable pressure should have a medium resistance when pulling back on the hold-down handle(s). At the end of the stroke, there should be a definite locking of the piece part under the clamping leaf. To adjust the pressure, move the nuts on the threaded link shaft either up or down.

1. To adjust the clamping pressure, tighten both sides of the clamping leaf with a piece part in the brake.

a. If the clamping pressure seems light and the piece part is loose under the clamp, move the adjusting nuts UP.

b. If the clamping pressure seems hard and you can't lock the handle, move the adjusting nuts DOWN.

c. Once the pressure feels right, no further adjustments are necessary for this thickness of piece part. (When changing thickness, it may become necessary to adjust again.) 2. Remove the piece part from under the clamping leaf, lock down the leaf with the handles, and loosen pressure on the top nut. 3. Unlock the clamping leaf and turn the bottom nut 1/2 turn in the desired direction. 4. Lock the clamping leaf, re-tighten the top nut, and repeat Step 1 until the desired pressure is reached.

Clamp Alignment (end to end)

Make a 90° test bend about 2" (50.8 mm) from each end of the machine. Stack the bent strips on top of each other and check that the bends are to the same degree.

If a strip is over bent, increase the setback distance on that side. If a strip is under bent, decrease the setback distance on that side. Again, move the setback adjustment past the desired set back point, and then forward to remove the slack.

Bending Wing Alignment

Bending accuracy is dependent on the top surface of the bending leaf, the attached bending wing being flush with the top face of the clamp block when the bending leaf is in the lowered position. If it appears that adjustment is necessary, contact the local service team or the manufacturer.

Operation

When performing basic bending operations it is important that the fingers of the brake are parallel with the edge of the clamping block. Also make sure you have the proper setback and clamping pressure set for the thickness of material being bent.

Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety footwear, and gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges.

Keep hands and fingers clear of the clamping beam. Stand off to the machine to avoid getting hit with the bending apron as it comes up.

When handling large heavy sheets make sure they are properly supported.

Bending Sheet Metal

1. Lift and rotate the clamping handle clockwise (cw) to raise the clamp assembly.
2. Insert the piece part between the clamp block and the brake finger.
3. Align the fingers of the hold down assembly to the scribed bend line on the piece part and clamp in place by pulling the clamp handle back.

DO NOT force the clamping handle. The holding pressure only needs to be tight enough to hold the sheet metal from moving when bending.

1. Pull up on the bending leaf handles until the piece part has reached the desired bend angle.
2. Lower the bending leaf, raise the hold down assembly, and remove the bent piece part.
3. If you are doing box and pan bending, choose fingers that closely match the dimensions of the finished piece.

BENDING ALLOWANCE

In order to bend sheet metal accurately, you will need to consider the length of each bend. This is referred to as bend allowance. Subtract the bend allowance from the sum of the outside dimensions of the piece to obtain the actual overall length or width of the piece. Because of differences in sheet metal hardness, and whether the bend is made with the grain against it, exact allowances must sometimes be made by trial and error. However, bend allowances for general use can be obtained from metalworking books or from the Internet.

UNDERSTANDING SPRINGBACK

Springback, also known as elastic recovery, is the result of the metal wanting to return to its original shape after undergoing compression and stretch. After the bending leaf is removed from the metal and the load is released, the piece part relaxes, forcing the bent portion of the metal to return slightly to its original shape.

The key to obtaining the correct bend angle is to overbend the metal and allow it to spring back to the desired angle. All metals exhibit some amount of springback.

MATERIAL SELECTION

CAUTION

It must be determined by the customer that materials being processed through the machine are NOT potentially hazardous to the operator or persons working nearby.

When selecting materials, keep these instructions in mind:

1. Material must be clean and dry (without oil).
2. Material should have a smooth surface so it processes easily.
3. Dimensional properties of material must be consistent and not exceed the machine capacity values.
4. Chemical structure of material must be consistent.
5. Buy certified steel from the same vendor when possible.

LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel. Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around machinery.

1. Check daily for any unsafe conditions and fix immediately.
2. Check that all nuts and bolts are properly tightened.
3. On a weekly basis, clean the machine and the area around it.
4. Lubricate threaded components and sliding devices.
5. Apply rust inhibitive lubricant to all non-painted surfaces.

Oil Ports

Using an oil can with a good quality #30W oil, apply 5-6 drops into each of the ports on both ends of the machine. Repeat weekly or more often depending on usage. Wipe off any excess oil.

NOTE

Proper maintenance can increase the life expectancy of your machine.
