I. Recommendations for installation
The physical installation and connections must be done by a Gravotech approved
technician.
Turn off the machine before any intervention.
1. Physical installation
•
Place the machine on a horizontal, stable and clean surface that can support 100 kg (220.462 lb) or more.
•
Check that the engraving table is level in both directions (adjust with a spirit level.)
•
Place the machine in a clean, ventilated environment. Choose the location that offers the shortest and
most direct route to the air extraction system (see: "Air extraction system (optional)").
•
Avoid small, confined, unventilated spaces. Some materials continue to emit gases for a few minutes
after laser marking or cutting. The presence of these materials in a confined, unventilated room could
contaminate the room.
To provide good ventilation and prevent the laser source, power supply and/or control unit
module from overheating, leave a clear space of 20 cm (7.874 in) all around the machine.
The back of the machine should be kept clear and should not be close to any items of
furniture. It must not be placed on a shelf or installed in a corner.
Overheating could seriously damage the machine and lead to major costs.
This marking equipment is designed to function at a room temperature between 10 °C (50 °F) and 35
°C (95 °F).
•
If the equipment is stored at a temperature inferior to 10 °C (50 °F) or superior to 40 °C (104 °F), leave
it 24h at a temperature between 10 °C (50 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F) before start-up. The dew point ambient
temperatures must be below 10 °C (50 °F).
•
Ambient light is enough to light the equipment properly. The machine has a lighting system inside the work
area.
•
Arrange the work area so that the operator can quickly and easily access all the external parts of the
machine. Do not obstruct the movement of the moving parts of the machine.
Make sure the connector screws are properly tightened to prevent the cables from
becoming disconnected while the machine is switched on. This could cause permanent
damage to the circuit boards.
The power cable must always be easily accessible (power shut-off device).
