To operate the APCA-45
1. Increasing pressure on the EXTEND air pipe
will extend the cover.
2. Increasing pressure on both the EXTEND
and RETRACT air pipes will keep the cover
extended with air bleed.
3. Increasing pressure on the RETRACT air
pipe will retract the cover with air bleed.
NOTE:
A retract confirm sensor provides the
machine controller with a signal to indicate that
the APCA-45 cover is retracted.
Operating procedure
Air blast stalk
An independently fed DIN EN ISO 228–G 1/8
outlet for an “air blast stalk” is provided for
customer implementation.
This can be used to blow air over the stylus cube
or the cutting tool being measured when the
APCA-45 cover is retracted during the measuring
cycle.
NOTE:
Air blast stalk not provided by Renishaw.
