Mechanical Press Brake Guarding specs.doc

This is a specification document for mechanical press brake guarding equipment required for Fleet Services at the Augusta Fabrication Floor. The project involves the procurement of a 150-ton D&K press brake guarding system operating at 440 volts, specifically Package #1 from Triad, which features dual logic microprocessor control with plain diagnostic message display. The system incorporates OSHA-compliant control reliability and component monitoring capabilities, along with comprehensive component and systems diagnostics with indicator lights for total press monitoring. The package retains the existing mechanical pedal to preserve operator feel during forming operations and is documented in pages H5 and H6 of the Triad Catalog 2001.
