Application-Specific Positioner Configuration Settings
Application-Specific In/Out Positioner Configuration Settings
Lance
(17)
When selected, all move sequences start from the Retract position and
move towards the parts. Use this setting when moving inside the parts to
coat recesses.
USA ColorMax
(18)
Sets the cleaning sequence for a US-designed ColorMax powder coating
system. If this option is selected the iControl system has no control over
the cleaning sequence.
Vertical Positioner
(19)
Select if the positioner moves the guns vertically instead of horizontally.
No Drive
(20)
Select if the in/out positioner has reversing contactors for direction control
and no speed controller. Used primarily in Europe.
Clean Only
(21)
Select if the positioner is manual control only. Used to move guns out of
booth for cleaning. Default, minimum, and preset move settings are
ignored when this option is selected.
Positioning Guns on Horizontal Positioners
If you need help positioning your guns contact your Nordson representative.
For each horizontal positioner:
1. Hang a plumb bob from the conveyor centerline.
2. Move the in/out positioner to the forward limit switch.
3. Position the guns on the stand, oscillator, or reciprocator so that the gun
tips are the desired distance from the conveyor centerline. A typical
distance is 6 inches, but this is always determined by the application.
4. Enter this measurement into the Configuration screen as the Gun to
Conveyor Centerline setting.
Positioning Guns on Vertical Positioners
See Figure 4-6.
1. Position the guns on the positioners so that the gun tips are the desired
distance into the booth with the positioners at full down or full up.
2. Calculate the vertical offset and enter it into the Gun to Conveyor
Centerline setting (item 12 in Figure 4-5) as described in the following
procedures.
The vertical offset should be calculated as follows:
S
Bottom-Up positioners use the Last Beam Broken (LBB) value, which is
the signal measured from the last (top) beam toward the cable end of
the scanner. Enter the value ( A ) from the topmost beam (LBB) to the
gun tips at positioner zero (positioner at full up).
S
Top-Down positioners use the First Beam Broken (FBB) value, which is
the signal measured from the first (bottom) beam at the cable end
toward the top of the scanner. Enter the value ( B ) from the first beam
(FBB) to the gun tips at positioner zero (positioner full down).
