1General safety instructions
The laboratory resp. the classroom must be equipped according to the rules of EN 50191:
•There must be Emergency Stop equipment in the training area and at least one Emergency Stop outside
the training area.
•The training area must be protected against any unauthorized switching-on, e.g. by key-operated
switches.
•The training area must be protected by fault current protective circuit (RCD).
– RCD circuit breaker with differential current ≤ 30 mA, type B.
•The training area must be protected by overcurrent protections -
– fuses or circuit breakers
•The training area must be supervised by a person who is responsible for the activities.
– This person must be a skilled electrician or a person instructed in electrical engineering with the
knowledge of all safety requirements and safety precautions on file.
•Any damaged device or faulty device may not be used.
– Any faulty or damaged device has to be blocked and removed from the training area.
General requirements regarding a safe operation of the devices:
•Do not lay cables over hot surfaces.
– Hot surfaces are marked with a corresponding warning symbol.
•The permitted power loads of cables and devices may not be exceeded.
– Do always compare the current values of the device, the cable and the fuse.
– In case of non-compliance, you have to use a separate upstream fuse as an appropriate overcurrent
protection.
•Any device with earth connection must always be grounded.
– If there is a ground connection (green-yellow laboratory socket) available, the connection to the
protective ground must always be effected. The protective ground must always be contacted first
(before voltage) and must only be separated last (after voltage separation).
•If not specified differently in the technical data, the device does not have an integrated fuse.

safety laboratory cables.
Any damaged or faulty safety laboratory cables have to be blocked instantly and to
be removed from the training area.
1.3 Information for the electrical connection of the systems
For the supply of the CP-Factory/ CP-Lab systems, according to the regulations of the EN 60204-1 (VDE
0113-1) part 8.2.8, a supply cable with an additional protective earth conductor is required. Since a leakage
current of > 10mA may flow depending on the expansion, an additional protective earth conductor with
10mm² is required.
See also DIN EN 60204-1.

1.4 Handling the system
1.4.1 Dangers when using the machine
The system has been constructed in accordance with the state of the art and the recognized safety rules.
Nevertheless, there might occur dangers to life and limb of the user or a third person when used, as well as
negative impact on the system or on other material assets.
You may only use the system:
•for the intended use
•in excellent condition concerning safety regulations
Any faults which might affect the safety must be eliminated instantly!
1.4.2 Safety precautions in normal operation
Please use the system only if all safety devices are fully functional.
Please inspect the system regarding externally discernible damages and the functionality of the safety
devices at least before starting the operation.
Do not touch the running station.
Before any circuit assembly, disassembly or modifications in a circuit:
Switch off the compressed air supply and the power supply.
Observe the general safety regulations: DIN 58126 and VDE 0100.
1.4.3 Dangers caused by electrical energy
After finishing the maintenance works you have to check the safety devices regarding their function.
Only an electrically or electronically trained person is allowed to execute operations on the electrical supply.
The terminal boxes have to be kept close all of the time. Any access is only allowed if supervised by a
training person.
Please do not operate electrical limit switches manually when searching for an error, but use the tools.
Please do only use low voltage 24 VDC.
1.4.4 Dangers caused by pneumatic energy
Tubes coming off due to compressed air may cause injuries. Take away the pressure instantly.
Caution! When switching on the compressed air, the cylinders may drive in or out automatically.
Do not uncouple the tubes when under pressure. Exception: Debugging. In this case, you have to hold the
tube end tight. Do not exceed the permitted working pressure. See also data sheets.
1.4.5 Maintenance and fault clearance
Carry out all prescribed setting and servicing work in due time (see data sheets).
Protect the compressed air and the electrics against an accidental commissioning.
During all maintenance, servicing or repair works, the machine must be disconnected from the power supply
and the compressed air supply, and it must be protected against an unintentional restart.
Please check that all screw connections which have been loosened during the maintenance, servicing or
repair works are firmly seated.
1.4.6 Organizational measures
All existing safety equipment has to be checked regularly.

3.1 Transport
On delivery of the stations, special attention must be payed on transporting them only by a suitable
industrial truck.
The weight of a station may amount up to 500 kg.
i
Warning
Before the transport, all supply roads must be cleared to be passable for the
industrial truck. If necessary, you have to install warning signs or barrier tapes.
When opening the transport boxes you have to be very careful because additional
components like computers may also be delivered with the box and have to be
protected against dropping out.
Caution
If the transport box is opened and the possibly additional components are taken
out, you can remove the station and bring it to its place of destination. Please
check the stability of all profile connectors with an Allen key size 4-6. It might
happen that the connectors are loosened during the transport due to inevitable
vibrations. Please pay special attention to any protruding components, sensors or
other small parts may easily be damaged during an improper transport. Do not
grab the station at or even under the pedestals – high risk of being crushed or
jammed!
3.2 Set up
3.2.1 General notes
You have to install the system in a frost-free room with a maximum relative humidity of 70 % and a
maximum ambient temperature of 25 ° Celsius. In countries with a higher humidity or higher temperatures,
you have to install air-conditioning systems for constant ambient conditions. You first have to check any
electrical disturbing sources like welding systems, big motors and contactors regarding their EMC and if
necessary to shield them in order to obtain the values permitted in the guidelines. A stable ground is
essential for a trouble-free operation in order to avoid subsidences. You have to see for an appropriate
distance between the system and the wall. Keep away any dust from the station resulting from construction
works (covering).

3.3 basic module linear
3.3.1 General information
The basic module linear consists of a two-lane conveyor line which is 1200 mm long. The conveyors are 80
mm wide.
The conveyors are for transporting boards on carriers.
The carriers are equipped with a read/write ID-system. This ID-system represents an important item of the
CP Factory System. Current data of the workpiece to be transported is written on the carriers. Thus all
information essential for the process is transported together with the carrier and is therefore available at
every station.

3.4 Mechanical setup
The basic module linear has been constructed for operation from both sides. The sides are built identically;
there is an independent electrical system, pneumatics, a drive unit and the operation for every side. It is also
possible to install and operate an application module on only one side of the basic module linear. You can
continue controlling the other side by its own operating panel. The basic module linear is equipped with
mechanically adjustable feet. Should it be necessary to move the basic module linear to another place, it
can be lowered to its rollers and thus be transported easily.

The modules can be operated in two ways - as a single station or in a chain with further modules. When
connected to a further module, it is necessary to replace the deflection at the end of the band by means of a
support plate. The switch is an exception, if this is operated as a single station, it is not possible to eject or
introduce workpieces via the switches.
Installation Options example
With the pluggable tape deflections there are different possibilities to control the transport flow. Depending
on this, different modules can be operated individually or in combination.
