Figure 4.5: Example Tonnage Waveform With Peak Settings Selected for View
Section 4.5 The Tonnage Monitor Graph Screen
The GRAPH OPERATIONS softkey in the main tonnage monitor screen provides the operator or die
setter more detailed analysis of machine forces by displaying tonnage versus crankshaft angle curves.
The screen in Figure 4.5 shows an example screen when viewing peak tonnage information. Figure 4.6
shows the same example graph when viewing data window 2 information.
Notice that the shaded softkeys in these figures change depending on the circumstances. The top
softkey, for instance, is the “editing softkey” and will change description based on what parameter the
editing cursor is on. The INCREMENT and DECREMENT softkeys also change as the editing cursor
moves.
Referring to Figure 4.5, some of the items on this screen are:
a) Cursor Angle - The angle at which the vertical measuring cursor (at 180 degrees in
Figure 4.5 and pointed to by “h”) is sitting.
b) Cursor Tonnage - The numeric value of tonnage where the vertical measuring cursor (at
180 degrees in Figure 4.5 and pointed to by “h”) crosses the tonnage
waveform.
