2.6 Emergency
stop
Pressing the ‘Emergency stop’ button located on the remote control will stop all machine
activity. It is possible that some machine components may decelerate to a stop without this
movement being recorded by the CNC controller. Therefore it is important to check the
alignment of the torch position if the
emergency stop is pressed during profiling.
This can be done using the ‘Reverse’ button to move back in
the cut (see chapter 6.5: Cutting sequence for more
information). There is also an emergency stop for the robot
and on the manual control pendant (for more information see
the Robot Control Manual). The shock sensor on the cutting
torch will also trigger an emergency stop if the torch collides
with material. When the emergency stop is pressed, the
following window will appear on the touch screen of the
remote control:
The following procedure must be followed to restart the machine after an emergency stop:
