efore an Authorized Field Service Technician can perform the machine’s final chec
kout, the following requirements must
be met:
•
The machine must be in position and placed on its rest
pads.
•
To move the machine while on the pallet, a 15000 lb.
forklift with a
24” load center & 6’ fork extensions
is
required. Depending on the load center or rating of the
forklift, a larger forklift may be required. The center of
gravity (CG) of the machine while on the pallet is ~48
”
from the edge of the pallet.
•
The TMC must be lifted from either the left or right hand
sides. Make certain that the forks are squarely in the
lifting cutouts beneath the machine. See the figures
below.
•
The TMC may be lifted via a crane with 4 points shown in
figure 7 and 8.
•
Once the machine is raised from the pallet, thread the
adjusting screws into the bed casting. Thread the leveling
screws down approximately 1.25
”
as measured from the
bottom of the leveling bolt to the bottom of the casting.
The TMC should be placed on the 4 leveling pads labeled
L1, R1, L2 and R2. The leveling screws labeled L3 and R3
should be threaded in but not touching the pad. They will
be adjusted during installation.
•
The machine must be wired (refer to the installation and
service manual for additional information). Make sure to
follow our grounding recommendations.
•
The machine must have air hooked up. We strongly
recommend that a water separator or air dryer be installed
upstream of the TMC air supply.

The floor area encompasses the space required to
position the chip container and have the electrical
cabinet or side doors open along the X axis.
•
A solid and level foundation to maintain approximately
8360 lbs. plus the weight of the workpiece (maximum
total of ~ 10000 lbs.) is required. Six leveling screws are
provided.
•
Minimum doorway width is
88”
and minimum height is
90
” that the
TMC can fit through (assumes Z cable
carrier collapsed and Z axis motor removed). The 90
”
height dimension can be reduced to 84
”
if further items
are removed or adjusted.*
*Additional charges may apply.
Electrical
•
With the 8k spindle a separate 208 VAC (200 to 240 V is
acceptable), 68 amps, 60 Hz, 3 phase circuit is required.
Note
–
Current can be as high as 87 amps with all options
ordered
–
CTS (+14 amps, 4
th
axis (+5 amps)
•
With the 12k spindle a separate 208 VAC (200 to 240 V is
acceptable), 69 amps, 60 Hz, 3 phase circuit is required.
Note
–
Current can be as high as 88 amps with all options
ordered
–

th
axis (+5 amps
•
With the 8k spindle a separate 480 VAC (432 to 528 V is
acceptable), 46 amps, 60 Hz, 3 phase circuit is required.
Note
–
46 amps based nominal rated current of
transformer.
•
With the 12k spindle A separate 480 VAC (432 to 528 V is
acceptable), 46 amps, 60 Hz, 3 phase circuit is required.

•
A step-down transformer is required for 480V. TMT provides
this as an option.
•
Machine tool should be earth grounded with a dedicated 8-
foot long copper rod. The 6-gage ground wire should run
from the copper rod to grounding location in the electrical
cabinet. See figures 9 and 10.
Air
•
½” ID min
imum air connection is required.
•
Air pressure must be a minimum of 90 psi.
