Abstract: An automatic release timing control system for use with a press and a cooperating feeder for feeding a web of sheet material wherein a sheet release timing and a sheet grip timing of a release mechanism in the feeder are corrected in response to the varying revolution of the press and the response time of the release mechanism, so that, even when the working speed of the press is high, the sheet releasing operation and the sheet gripping operation of the release mechanism can follow up the working speed of the press.
Abstract: A system for controlling a rotating mechanism of a robot, press or the like wherein malfunction of the robot, press or the like is prevented by a circuit including a rotational angle detector for detecting the rotational angle when the rotating mechanism is rotated and for generating an output signal representative of the detected angle, and a control circuit which generates a drive control signal for controlling the movement of the robot, press or the like.
