Machine Miscellaneous Control

Activates the External Start Stop button and deactivates the HMI Start Stop button

Enables the mode selection (Jog, Program, Auto, etc.,) via the external key. But for Vulcan, this function disabled.

Z-axis is the vertical axis and at idle condition to hold its position it draws more current, which may heat up the motor.

Enabling this function will disable the power of Z-axis at idle condition and brake is enabled, thereby heating of the motor is reduced. When there is a motion command to the Z-axis, it automatically enables and start the motion.

Enables the Exhaust system function in the PLC

Enables the Sheet Edge function to determine the sheet origin point and orientation of sheet with respect to machine axis. Accordingly, the program is adjusted to sheet orientation and start cutting.

Enables the Auto Lubrication cycle, which will run the Lubrication program when reaches the specified time

Enables the chip conveyor motion at the start of the program if the Laser is ON.

Enables the Exhaust system at the start of the program if the Laser is ON.

Enables the axes to move to park position at the end of program.

Nozzle changes are required when the material or material thickness is changed, or when the nozzle is worn.

For this reason, there are two possibilities when operating automated systems without personnel:

If available, the nozzle changer is controlled by the program to exchange the nozzle when needed:
