A press machine is a press machine configured to press a workpiece. The press machine includes a display that displays a state display image which extends in a band shape and indicates an operating state of the press machine during a predetermined period of time up to date. The display displays time series variation in the operating state during the predetermined period of time by variation in a color of the state display image in the band shape in an extending direction.

A device (1) for heating filled brioches preferably filled with ice-cream, comprising an upper subassembly (3) and a lower subassembly (4) linked by one or more joints or hinges (10). Each one of the subassemblies (3, 4) includes a heating plate (14) with a cavity (14a) intended to receive the filled brioche, or other similar product, in order to heat it, arranged so that in an operative position they overlap one another. Each heating plate (14) is positioned on top of a heat transfer plate (16) enclosed in a thermoinsulating layer (13), except for an opening to allow contact between the heating plate (14) and the heat transfer plate (16). The heating plates (14) are releasable from the subassembly (3, 4) on which they are arranged by means of one or more releasable fastening elements protruding from the heating plate (14) and inserted in one or more slots (3c, 4c) of either casing of the subassemblies (3, 4).

A control device, a system and methods for optimizing and providing movement profiles, wherein the movement profiles serve for determining the movement of tools of a press and the movement of a receiving element for a workpiece of a transfer system, where transfer movement profiles are synchronized with one another via press movement profiles, the synchronization of the transfer movement profiles particularly occurs by chronologically shifting synchronization points via boundary conditions such that an offset of the press movement profiles can be determined via the synchronization, so that the workpiece can be processed as quickly as possible through the system.

In summary, the invention relates to a device and method for open-loop or closed-loop control of a movement of a die cushion of a die cushion press. The device has a control value encoder (11), a speed controller (12), a current controller (13), and a motor control device (14) for providing a nominal current for an electrical drive (15) of a fluid-hydraulic motor pump unit (20) for moving a die cushion of a die cushion press. The control value encoder (11) is provided in order to calculate a setpoint speed based on a die cushion control value command and a die cushion information. The speed controller (12) calculates a setpoint current based on the setpoint speed. The current controller (13) calculates a control signal based on the setpoint current, and the motor control device (14) calculates the nominal current based on the control current. In this respect, the dynamics of the control of the electrical machine can be improved.

Control method for a press installation and installation, where the installation includes a servo press, a conveyor device for conveying pieces from a position of origin to the servo press, and a controller. The controller controls the movements of the conveyor device and of the servo press by means of one and the same master signal, causing a synchronized actuation of both. In the method, the pieces are conveyed to the position of origin and during the travel thereof until reaching the position of origin, the passage of the pieces through a predetermined position of reference before the position of origin is detected, and depending on the detection, the master signal is adjusted for adapting the actuation speed of the servo press.
