: Grounding cables are attached to the inside of
each system panel and should be disconnected when the system panel
is removed. The grounding cables must be reconnected after replacing
the system panel.
ESD:
An ESD (Electrostatic Discharge Device) should be worn when
handling the grounding cables.
I
NTERLOCKS
: Covers of moving and/or rotating parts are equipped with
safety interlocks and sensors.
Avoid operating the system with open covers.
Spindle Interlock (Cut Cover):
The Spindle Interlock prevents injury to the User by:
Preventing the Cut Cover from opening while the Spindle
is rotating.
Preventing Axes X and Y from being moved, while the Cut
Cover is open.
Stopping Axes X and Y, if the Cut Cover is opened while
the Axis is moving.
Any attempt to move Axes X and Y, while the Cut Cover is open
results in an error message.
The Spindle Interlock is always engaged while the Dicer is
initializing, and when initialization is completed.
During the Blade Change procedure, the Spindle Interlock
automatically disengages when the Spindle is turned off by the
System. At the end of the procedure, the Software reminds the
User to close the cover before clicking
Finish
. The Spindle
Interlock then re-engages automatically to protect the User while
the Dicer initializes.
Note:
Once the
Blade Change
button is pressed, the Spindle Interlock is
unlocked and cover can be opened. The user has 20 seconds to open the
cover. If the cover has not been opened within 20 seconds, the interlock locks
back and can be either opened using the Model 7900 software or bypassed by
means of a key.
The Spindle Interlock can be locked and unlocked from the Dicer
screen in the Setup & Diagnostics workbook. Access rights to this
function can be restricted.
