A setup was created in a theorized attempt to improve tolerance. After a move, rather than test to see if other presses are within tolerance, this new setup would allow each press to do its own move.

The Setup is called Punch Tolerance mode and has two settings, Individual and Parallel. The intent is that Independent will force each press to do its own move to get as close to its target as possible. Parallel is the legacy operation where a press will test to see if it is within tolerance and will not attempt to move.

When beginning to implement the actual run logic of the setup it became apparent that it was a larger job than it sounds like on the surface. It will require a lot of changes and an approach similar to the one 5226 motion controller uses where a 75% threshold within the tolerance is used to decide if the press needs to attempt its own move. It is a little more complicated because not all lines are able to back up like the folding machine axes the 5226 deals with.

For now, until/if we decide to revisit this, the setup will be hidden and will have no effect.
