Instructions
Torch connections
• See section D - Deploying Tools. If you are adding a plasma cutter, you will:
• Mount and attach the torch to the gantry
• Route the z-axis motor cable and the ohmic sensing wire through the cable carrier
and connect them to the motor and the ohmic cap.
• Connect the (optional) magnetic breakaway cable
• Connect the height control cable between the VFC unit and the Accumove2.
• Connect the torch relay wires in the plasma cutter's CNC cable to the Accumove2.
• Make the connections from the plasma cutter's CNC cable to the VFC unit and also to
the Accumove2.
• Connect ground wires to the VFC unit and to the Accumove2.
• Run the torch lead from the plasma cutter to the gantry torch mount. Keep the torch
lead as far as possible from the motor cables to reduce EMI.
• Provide the plasma power supply with appropriate power and air/gas connections.
• Run the work lead to the workpiece.
• Note
: Electrical noise in a busy shop can be a problem for table operation. If you are advised
to install a direct earth/ground rod-to-table cable, consult a qualified electrical worker to
ensure code compliance. Refer to our
EMI Reduction
information.
• If you are adding other types of tools, consult the manuals that accompany those tools for
mounting and configuration instructions.
