HL-CAST OPERATING INSTRUCTION

HL-CAST, a control system especially for cold chamber die-casting machine, has been
introduced by our company. The high working and easy-to-use performance will be more helpful
to improve the production quality and manufactural efficiency. It has been so welcome and will be
widely used in the die-casting machine.
HL-CAST consists of “Setting” part, “Monitor” part and “Diagnosis” part. It includes all
the technology setting parameter needed in the process of die-casting, real-time monitoring and
troubleshooting. Furthermore, the “Guide” added can help the operator make the best of it.
The model tree of the control system is as below：
Direct monitor ： Including display of
current system pressure/flowrate
and machine state。

Monitor Input monitor：Display the input of PLC

Output monitor：Display the output of PLC

2. Parameter setting
This hydraulic control system adopts advanced proportional solenoid valve, so the
pressure and flowrate can be set freely, which make the best use of machine.
Touch the“setting”key on the screen of “Top page”，user will enter into the section of
“Parameter setting”.
 The screen above shows the main menu of “parameter setting”. The all technology
parameter of the system can be set here.

setting sections.
2.2 Touch the“ die close”key, the screen displays as below:
 The way of setting data is similar with that of above. The value of pressure, flowrate and
time is all limited. Anyone can set the parameter by the information on page of “HELP”.
When finish setting, touch “EXIT”key to return or touch“Pre”, “NEXT”key to the other
property setting sections.

3 DIAGNOSIS
Touch the“Diagnosis”key on the page of “Top page”, the screen displays as below:
