    Abstract: The die cushion device according to the present invention includes a first hydraulic cylinder and a second hydraulic cylinder that are independently and simultaneously controlled. When a cushion pad is pre-pressurized, pressure control is performed on the first hydraulic cylinder via a first hydraulic circuit so that a pressure in a lower chamber of the first hydraulic cylinder is pre-pressurized to a preset pressure, and position control is simultaneously performed on the second hydraulic cylinder via a second hydraulic circuit so that the cushion pad is held in the die cushion standby position. A force with which the first hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad upward is balanced with a force with which the second hydraulic cylinder moves the cushion pad downward (a force for holding the die cushion standby position).

    Abstract: According to the die cushion apparatus of a press machine and the die cushion controlling method of the present invention, in holding the cushion pad on standby at a desired standby position, it is possible to hold the cushion pad on standby in parallel with the lower faces of the dies mounted to the slide, and if the lower faces of the dies are inclined, it is possible to hold the cushion pad on standby in the state of being inclined. Through this configuration, it is possible to easily allow the material to come into contact with the lower faces of the dies from the beginning of the die cushion force control (beginning of the collision), and also possible to smoothen the die cushion action in the plane, thereby enhancing the formability.

    Abstract: The die cushion device includes a first hydraulic cylinder for supporting a cushion pad, and a first hydraulic circuit for driving the first hydraulic cylinder. The first hydraulic circuit is a hydraulic closed circuit including a logic valve connected between a die cushion pressure generation line and a system pressure line, and a hydraulic pump driven by a first servomotor for applying a pilot pressure to the logic valve. The first controller controls the first servomotor (pilot pressure) based on a first pressure command corresponding to the die cushion force and the pressure detected by the first pressure detector to control the pressure in a lower chamber of the first hydraulic cylinder so that the pressure is equal to a pressure corresponding to the first pressure command.

    Abstract: A die cushion force control method and a die cushion apparatus generates a die cushion force on a cushion pad based on a die cushion force command value set in advance. A die cushion force command value equal to or larger than a target die cushion force command value is outputted initially in order to suppress an initial die cushion force overshoot generated when the target die cushion force command value configured to be stepwise is used as the die cushion force command value, then a die cushion force command value decreased continuously (gradually) so as to be smaller than the target die cushion force command value is outputted, and subsequently a die cushion force command value increasing gradually so as to be equal to the target die cushion force command value is outputted.
