The Coil Trim Cut Distance setup parameter automatically adds a scrap piece, equal to the non-zero programed length, to the queue, after a new coil has been loaded. This scrap piece serves to do the leading edge cut for the first part and allows the controller to run parts as the material is being threaded through the presses to reach the shear press. This potentially allows nearly all of the material threaded into the machine to be used. Without this feature some lines would waste many feet of material before they could produce the first part from a coil.

This trim cut can be very short and may require an operator to remove it so that it does not jam up a down-stream roll-former.This feature remember to halt the line for them.

A new setup parameter called Halt After Coil Trim Cut has been added. It has two possible settings, YES and NO. When set to YES the controller will automatically halt after the Coil Trim Cut has been completed.

This setup is by default locked with the setup lockout. It can be added to configurations. It is part of the Run Mode Options group. It is active and visible anytime the Coil Trim Cut Distance parameter is active and visible.
