What types of presses require brake monitors and control systems?

Part revolution presses require brake monitors and control systems to ensure safe operation due to their design and functionality. These types of presses complete only a portion of a full revolution with each cycle, which means that during operation, there is a potential for the upper part of the press to return to its starting position while still exerting force. As a result, it is crucial to have brake monitors that can detect and respond to any abnormalities in operation to prevent accidents or injuries.

Brake monitors help prevent the press from operating when it's not safe to do so, and control systems ensure that the machinery behaves predictably and safely, particularly during the braking phase. These safety measures are essential because part revolution presses can pose a significant risk if not properly monitored.

Other presses like continuous action, hydraulic, and pneumatic presses may have different mechanisms and risks associated with their operation that do not require the same level of safety monitors and controls as part revolution presses.
