ABSTRACT:
A press that includes a pair of die sections and a ram for propelling one of the die sections against the other to form a workpiece positioned therebetween. A die cushion is coupled to one of the die sections for cushioning force of engagement of the die sections, and includes at least one gas cylinder and a manifold for feeding gas under pressure to the cylinder. A pressure monitor includes a pressure sensor coupled to the manifold for supplying an electrical pressure signal as a function of gas pressure in the manifold. The pressure signal as compared to a predetermined threshold for supplying an alarm signal when gas pressure in the manifold is less than such threshold, and ram operation is stopped when the manifold gas pressure is less than the preset threshold.
