Instructions:
Pressure forming unit with automated thermo-
forming process and integrated production of
compressed air with reserve compressed air.*
* Pat. 19518211
The Erkopress motion/ ci motion units are in
accordance with the respective legal standards
that are listed in the declaration of conformity
on page 2 of this operating manual.
Safety:
• Before starting please carefully read this operating manual.
• The operating company has to ensure that the operator has
read and understood the operating manual.
• The operational safety of the unit is only guaranteed when it
is used in accordance with the legal accident prevention and
the safety guidelines are observed by the operator.
• Do not keep highly inflammable materials in direct area of
the machine.
• Only operate the unit under supervision.
• The voltage of the power source has to be identical to the
voltage indicated on the type plate.
• Attention hot, do not touch the heating element.
• Do not reach into the unit.
• Unplug the appliance when not in use.
• Before cleaning, maintenance and repairing always unplug
the unit and allow to cool down.
• The unit should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. Do not
use any solvents or other cleaning agents.
• Maintenance see page 12
• Repairs of the units must only be carried out by trained
personnel using original spare parts. Otherwise the
manufacturers liability and warranty expire.
Usage as directed:
• The units are intended for the use in the dental thermoform-
ing technique.
• They must only be operated by instructed personnel and only
using thermoforming material in Ø 120 mm and up to 5.5 mm
thickness to adapt on suitable models. Otherwise the product
liability expires.
Installation instructions:
• Place the unit on a plane ground. Pay attention to the fact
that the weight of the unit with accessories is approx. 30 kg.
• Install the unit in a dry and low-dust environment.
• Avoid draught (air-conditioning, ventilator, open window) at
the installation place since this might cause errors during
the temperature measurement by the sensor.
• The Erkopress _motion is connected to the compressed air
equipment available (mains pressure > 6 bar, inner diameter
of the feed cable at least 4 mm) and to electricity.
• The Erkopress ci motion will be connected to electricity
independently of a compressed air equipment.
• A reliable operation of all functions is only guaranteed at a
unit temperature of 15 °C.

favourites, this foil is selected out of the list of foils as described under “select foil“. New foils, either future
Erkodent foils or foreign foils, are entered with the functional field »New foil« and are saved in the list of
favourites.
After the desired foil is selected from the list of foils, the display shown at point 1. will be visible. To save the foil
as favourite, select »to favourites«.
Recommendation: If an Erkodent
foil will be saved with the factory
parameters, the changed one
should be saved as new foil with
a different name in order to avoid
any mix-up.

If Erkodent launches a new foil the necessary data will be found on the label (example: Erko new, thickness 1.8
mm, rated temperature 150 °C, cooling time 1:40 min.).
The foil will be saved under input »New foil«. In case of foreign foils the rated temperature and cooling time have
to be determined using the special functions (page 9). The new foils can be saved in the list of favourites and
selected via this list.
Note: Max 240 °C can be entered as rated temperature. The cooling time has to be at least 30 sec. Otherwise
there might be malfunctions.

Special functions: The special functions allow to switch the
heating on and off independently of the program.
To determine the rated temperature (thermoforming tempera-
ture) of a foreign foil, select »heating on« and clamp the foil in
the foil frame as described at “thermoforming“. As soon as the
foil frame clicks into place under the heater (illustrations), the
heater switches on and the sensor measures the temperature
of the foil. If afterwards the foil shall be thermoformed, select
»START« to initiate the thermoforming process.
No information in regard to rated temperature and cooling time is available:
To check the thermoformability, pull the foil out and touch with a blunt instrument.
If permanent impressions result, generally the foil is ready for thermoforming
(illustration).
The heating switches off if the foil is pulled out of the heating area, »heating out« is
selected or if the sensor measures >240 °C. The temperature shown on the display
is the temperature measured at last. If the foil is thermoformable, this temperature
corresponds to the rated temperature.
To determine the cooling time, stop the time from beginning of the adaptation. For
the first time after approx. 1 minute select cooling time »STOP«, the cylinder moves
upwards, the foil can be pulled out. Manually check the foil temperature, attention
risk of burning! The right cooling time is achieved if the foil has approx. room tem-
perature on the surface. The foil can now be saved as described under “enter new
foils“.

possible cause:
The support for the foil reception has not
moved down the red protection shield.
Form pot position changed during thermo-
forming/switch defective.
When the support for foil reception is
raised, the heating position switch is not
reached/switch defective.
Foil reception was not in the heating posi-
tion for more than 10 sec. during heating.
The form pot was not in the thermoforming
position for more than 10 sec. at the end of
the heating time.
Heating was for longer than 10 min. in oper-
ation/IR temperature sensor defective.
Compressor needs longer than 90 seconds
to build enough pressure,
pressure system untight.
possible elimination: *Customer Service
Make sure that the foil reception is snapped
into place, push it completely into the unit,
otherwise CS*.
Do not pull out the form pot during the thermo-
forming process/CS *.
See Error 001, »Heating switch« must light up/
CS *.
The foil reception must be pulled out
only briefly and must be pushed back
into place within 10 seconds.
The form pot must be in the rearmost, locked
position for the thermoforming process. If not,
the program is aborted after 10 sec.
After 10 minutes of heating, the heater switch-
es off for safety reasons / CS *.
Check compressed air system, CS*.
Drive support for foil reception step
by step downwards (motor down) or
upwards (motor up) in the respective
end position. (Several times press
touch fields)
Example: red light up, position switch
is switched on.
Maintenance:
• To ensure that the unit maintains its full function,
the rubber seals require replacing once a year
when the unit is permanently in use. The new
sealing rings should be firmly pushed into position.
• Extremely dirty high-grade steel granules should
be purified or replaced.
• The air discharge apertures at the side of the
model pot must not be blocked.
Maintenance Erkopress _ motion
The condensation water level
in the water separator must not
exceed the max. marquage.
To release water push the black
drain for water removal upwards

Troubleshooting:
Error
Machine not ready to use, no display
in the touch panel
Heater does not start
Pressure cylinder does not, or incom-
pletely extend
Pressure cylinder does not seal
(blowing sound)
Program reacts absurdly
Absurd temperature indication
Adaptation not sufficient
Note, only Erkopress ci motion:
When processing thin flexible foils,
holes may form in the foil. If the
pressure drops below 1.5 bar, this will
be displayed.
Do not interrupt the thermoforming
process! A good thermoforming
result is most likely.
Possible cause:
Power supply defective, room
temperature below 15 °C
Foil reception not locked under the heating
Protection shield not extended
Form pot is not in the rearmost
position
Not enough pressure
(Erkopress __motion)
Worn sealings
Not enough pressure

Display pressure loss:
Possible elimination:
Check wall socket, machine plug, fuses,
operating temperature > 15 °C.
Check position of the foil reception.
Foil reception must be in the rearmost,
locked position, or CS (Customer Service).
Push form pot with model backwards into the
unit until it clicks into place.
System pressure at least 6 bar,
pressure line with min. 6 mm inner
diameter, without creases.
Replace sealings
System pressure at least 6 bar,
pressure line with min. 6 mm inner
diameter, without creases.
Restart, switch machine off for 30 sec. and
switch on again.
Clean sensor window, avoid draught near the
unit, if necessary CS sensor check.
Remove granules from the sealings.
Replace sealings
Remove the sharp edges on the model,
embed the model deeper, if necessary
choose thicker foil material.
