CNC-portal system
High-Z T-Series
Short description
The machine includes the complete mechanics for three-dimensional movement. The
linear carriage-movement takes place via threaded spindles, powered by step motors. Two
drives are used on the x-axis. The activation of the step motors, in order to operate every
single axis, is done by using further interfaces. This operating description will show you how
to install, operate and service a CNC- portal system.

2Safety
This section gives an overview of all important safety aspects for optimum protection of the
personnel, as well as for the safe and fault-free operation. Other task-based guide-lines are
included in the sections regarding the individual phases of life.
2.1 Intended use
The CNC-Portal system is exclusively used for holding provided tools that serve to process
various materials and surfaces.
The machine is meant to be built into a complete system and does not have its own
control unit.
Intended use also includes compliance with instructions specified by the manufacturer
concerning operation, servicing and maintenance.
Every application in excess of the intended use and/or other use, can lead to hazardous
situations and is considered misuse.
WARNING:
Danger due to misuse!
Improper use of the CNC-portal machine can cause dangerous situations.
Operation outside the values specified in the section „Technical
data“.
Bypassing the safety devices.
Remodelling, refitting or changing of the device or parts of it, with
the intention to alter functionality or usability.
If machining process involves flammable cooling lubricants.
Processing light alloys such as aluminium, magnesium and titanium
alloys without extraction attachments and corresponding safety
measures.
Operating the machine, although it is not in perfect condition from a
technical point of view.
Operating the machine in potentially explosive environment.
The manufacturer shall not be held liable for any and all damage due to misuse of this
equipment.
2.2 Fundamental dangers
In following section, all residual risks are named that can still result from the machine,
even when the appliance is used as intended.

2.2.1 Hazards from electrical power
Electric current
DANGER:
Life Hazard through electrical shock!!
Touching conductive parts causes a direct danger to due to electrical
shock. Damage to the insulation or individual components can mean
danger to life.
Any work required at the electrical system may only be carried out
by a qualified electrician in compliance with electro-technical
regulations.
In case of damage to the insulation, switch off the power supply
immediately and have repairs carried out.
Before starting to work on active parts of electrical systems and
equipment, establish a voltage-free state throughout the duration
of the work, this must take place according to the 5 following safety
regulations:
Activation.
Secure it from being switched on again.
Determine voltage free status.
Earth and short circuit.
Provide protection by covers or barriers for any neighbouring live
parts.
Never attempt to bypass or de-activate fuses or cut-outs. When
replacing fuses or circuit breakers make sure to adhere to the correct
ampere rating. Keep moisture away from live parts.
Stored charge
Danger:
Risk of death due to stored voltage!
Electronic charges could be stored in electric components that still exist
after switching off and disconnecting from power-supply. Contact with
these components can lead to severe injury or even death.
Before starting work disconnect mentioned components from
power-supply. Wait 10 minutes, in
order to assure that the internal capacitors discharge completely.

regulations and determine additional hazards in a risk assessment that result
through the special working conditions at the place of operating the machine. He
must implement this in the form of operating instructions for the operation of the
machine.
During the complete usage time of the machine, the owner must check whether
the operating instructions created by him correspond with the current status of
the regulations and must adapt them if necessary.
The owner must clearly regulate and specify the responsibilities for installation,
operation, maintenance and cleaning
The operator of the machine must ensure that all persons having access to it,
have read and understood these instructions. In addition he must at regular
intervals train the employees in how to deal with the machine and inform them
about potential hazards.
The operating company must provide the required safety equipment for the
personnel and order to wear protective equipment.
Moreover, the equipment operator is responsible for ensuring that the equipment is in
proper technical condition at all times.
Thus, following applies:
The operating company must make sure that any and all maintenance intervals
described in this instruction are carried out.

matter.
Particulate matter damages mostly the airways, because it gets inhaled.
Following health effects related to particulate matter concentrations are
generally known:
Temporary impairments of the repertory
Higher medication requirements for asthma patients
Increased hospital admissions
Increased mortality caused by cardiovascular problems and
