1 Introduction
All isel CNC base machinery (corresponding MD 2006/42/EC partly completed
machinery) respectively isel CNC machinery (corresponding MD 2006/42/EC complete
machinery) of type FlatCom (evenso machinery of type EuroMod, OverHead and
ModuStar) are proven CNC machinery. They provide the user a wide range of possibilities
for 2D or 3D processing of work pieces.
Machinery are constructed in different sizes and accomplishments. The base are exactly
fitted and variable mountable standard profiles and drive units. Depending from the
machinery demands according kinematics the units are mounted. The appearance of
machine of one type is always the same. Applications of a concrete machine respectively
the tool mounted on the Z axis are variously.
All CNC base machinery / CNC machinery of type FlatCom have a unique control and
safety concept as well as a unique design of the mechanics. Each single machine becomes
configured, measured and tested for many hours before delivery to the customer.
For every delivered CNC base machine / CNC machine a check protocol is archived under
the special order number at the manufacturer isel Germany AG. The customer can request
this protocol. All CNC base machinery / CNC machinery are surveyed with circle form tester
QC10 from Renishaw® in all three interpolation planes resp. Laser interferometer.
As presupposition for your work you need basic knowledges in CNC technics and PC
application. It would be good to know also the terminology of the current valid MD:
- MD 98/37/EU applicable until 28.12.2009
- MD 2006/42/EU from 29.12.2009 obligingly by law
Please note this manual that you
•install and do commissioning of CNC base machine / CNC machine correctly
•can work safety, fast and effectively
•keep away danger from persons and the equipment
•can fully profit from the capabilities of CNC base machine / CNC machine
The statements in this manual orientate to a standard complexity of deliver the CNC
machine is ready for operation. Notes not related to the machine (e.g. accessory or
software) you can skip when reading the manual the first time.
The statements in this manual are basing on the following configuration / technical state of
the CNC machine control system:
all motor amplifiers have monitoring of standstill state
Operator software is: ProNC /6/ or / Remote /7/ higher then version 1.45.6.0

2 Intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse
isel CNC machinery / isel CNC base machinery are CNC controlled machinery with more
than one linear axis resp. one or two optional rotation axis. The motor power amplifiers will
be driven via a PC based CAN-CNC-control (CANopen standard). All control and power
electronics for the axis is mounted in a control cabinet.
Differences between CNC-machine and CNC-base-machine:
isel CNC machine:
In the new, at 29.12.2009 legally binding machine directive 2006/42/EC, is the term
“machinery” defined as follows (quote from EC directive, acticle 2, letter a):
„machinery“
an assembly, fitted with or intended to be fitted with a drive system other than directly applied human or
animal effort, consisting of linked parts or components, at least one of which moves, and which are joined
together for a specific application.
Each isel-CNC-machine delivered with a tool (e.g. milling or engraving spindle, metering
device, measuring device like CCD camera or triangulation laser, water jet nozzle, plasma
burner), is for the purpose of the directive 2006/42/EC a machine, because she was
manufactured for a specific purpose resp. specific application and therewith a specific
usage.
The usage results from the kind of tool which is mounted on a moveable axis, e.g.:
tool = milling tool usage for milling, drilling
tool = engraving tool usage for engraving
tool = metering device usage for metering
tool = water jet nozzle usage for water jet cutting
The manufacturer isel Germany AG is able to effect a legal prescribed risk assessment for
the CNC-machines. CNC-machines will be delivered with a machinery enclosure.
isel CNC base machine:
In the new, at 29.12.2009 legally binding machine directive 2006/42/EC, is the term “partly
completed machinery”defined as follows (quote from EC directive, acticle 2, letter g):
„partly completed machinery”
An assembly which is almost machinery but which cannot in itself perform a specific application. A drive
system is partly completed machinery. Partly completed machinery is only intended to be incorporated
into or assembled with other machinery or other partly completed machinery or equipment, thereby
forming machinery to which this Directive applies;
Each isel-CNC-base-machine delivered without a tool and therefore not for a specific
application is for the purpose of the directive 2006/42/EC a partly completed machine.
The CNC-machine / CNC-base-machine is used for work in dry rooms (workshops,
laboratories) and industrial firms (max. ambient temperature: 40°C)
CNC-machine:
oThe CNC-machine (complete machine) is according to the type mounted on the machine tool
appropriately used. That is, the concrete tool of the CNC machine specifies the intended use of
the machine within the meaning of the Machinery Directive (Annex I, Section 1.1.2). Under this
premise, the CNC-machine is suitable for milling, drilling, cutting, engraving, metering, measuring
or water jet cutting. The CNC-machine is not suitable for graphite machining.

CNC Base machinery / CNC machinery: Type FlatCom
Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 9
oAppropriate processing materials are light metals, plastics, wood, glass, platinum materials, etc.
oNot permitted are materials which produces during processing harmful gases
oThe CNC-machine is prepared for an extraction unit device. This extraction unit is preferably
suitable for dry dust (wood dust, fiberglass / fiberglass dust, platinum dust, etc.).
The CNC base machine (partly completed machine) can be added by you as the buyer
of the base-machine with a variety of appropriate processing tools to a CNC-machine
(complete machine) in compliance with the requirements of the machinery directive. You
are responsible for CE certification if you use the machine itself resp. sell (bring to
market). The CE certification also includes the legally required identification of a safe
machine by the CE mark.
CNC-machinery for milling processes:
oThe CNC-milling-machines are designed for milling/drilling of the following materials: aluminum,
copper, brass, plastics (e.g. GRP / fiberglass), wood
oThe processing of magnesium is prohibited because of fire.
oDuring the processing of steel / stainless steel only engraving or a processing with low cutting
forces is possible.
oIt shall not be used milling spindles with a toolholder greater than ISO 25 or HSK 25 (hollow
shank taper). The speed of the spindle drive may not be higher than the corresponding
processing speed for the material.
oAll machines are designed for milling spindles (spindle machining, induction motor) with a
maximum of 3 kW drive power.
oCutters and drills may be used up to a maximum shaft diameter of 12 mm.
oThe tools form cutters and conical formers for timber industry may be used up to a maximum
cutting diameter of 40mm and a shaft diameter of 12 mm.
The rapid traverse velocity should not exceed the values of 150mm/sec till 200mm/sec
depending on the machine size.
The feed rate of the processing tool in the material must be determined technologically
and should be smaller than the rapid traverse speed.
For the secure clamping of the tools in the tool holder, the user is responsible.
To the reasonably foreseeable misuse belongs the operation of the machine by two
persons. It is prohibited that one person presses in test-mode (see also 6.2 Operation
modes) the acknowledge button (ACK) and another person is touching into the
machines workspace or do work in another way when the safety door is open and an
axis movement is going on.
There must be no manipulations on the locking of the safety door.

CNC Base machinery / CNC machinery: Type FlatCom
Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 10
3 Safety information
The machine must not be used in explosion endangered environment.
The CNC machine has an enclosure resp. sliding door around, but not above the
working area. The clear panes (material: Polycarbonate or PETG) are fixed in the
machine frame resp. sliding door. They guarantee the protection against moving parts
and breaking parts of tool or work piece possibly ejected out of the working area inside.
The CNC machine is open to top, so there is no complete protection against breaking
parts (Residual risk). The enclosure reduces noise level and keeps slivers in milling or
drilling operation. During operation the sliding door is kept shut (closed and locked)
and so it can not be opened. This safety module (door interlocking, the so called
Schmersal) must not be manipulated or removed.
Without complete, intact enclosure resp. sliding door including undamaged
Polycarbonat / PETG panes a CNC machine delivered with CE mark must not be
put into operation.
The CNC base machine without enclosure resp. sliding door is a partly completed
machine due to MD 2006/42/EU and is delivered without CE mark. The Declaration of
Incorporation is valid.
As operator of the CNC base machine you are responsible for implementation of
suitable protection actions as result of your risk assessment. Those actions have
to comply with all safety requests of MD 2006/42/EU.
Be always careful that work pieces are tightly clamped. The use of save and suitable
parts / devices for work piece clamping is one of the tasks of the operator. Unsave or
not suitable devices for work piece clamping can cause unfasten of work piece from
device during operation. This can result in heavy damage and accidents with fatality or
personal damages. In this case injury of tool, work piece, clamping device or other parts
of the machine can occur.
In emergency the Emergency HALT switch is to be pushed. Pushing this switch results
in disconnection of the power supply for power electronics in the motor amplifiers resp.
the frequency converter for the working spindle by the main relay controlled by the
safety module. Emergency stop complies with Stop category 1 due to EN 60204-1:2006
(controlled stop and subsequent switch off the power supply for motor amplifiers).
The key switch on the CNC operator panel may be used only by knowledgeable and
instructed persons, because in TEST mode there is an increased risk of damage.
Please keep the replacement key switch under your personal check.
The operator has guarantee sufficient ventilation according accruement of dust or gas,
caused by the operation process of working pieces.
If the sound pressure level near the machine should be higher then 70 dB(A) the
operator has to wear an applicative ear protection.

CNC Base machinery / CNC machinery: Type FlatCom
Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 11
The work at and with the machine is only allowed for authorized, knowledgeable and
instructed persons. Those persons have to be informed by a special instruction about
possibly appearing endangerments (especially residual risk).
Flowing water must not be used for cooling. For cooling purpose only special cooling
equipment (refer to the chapter accessory) may be used. This cooling equipment has to
generate water fog or an air flow for cooling effect. No drops of cooling medium may
appear or flow under the clamping plate.

machine is used with this control software (ProNC version 1.45.6.1 or
newer resp. Remote version 1.45.6.1 or newer).
For Back Up the control software ProNC / Remote is stored on CD-ROM
or USB memory stick for the purpose of reinstallation (Setup).
The user is responsible for archiving all his application programs (ISO,
PAL, CNC or NCP format) on USB memory stick.
The current scope of delivery of your CNC machine is defined in the
packaging note.

CNC Base machinery / CNC machinery: Type FlatCom
Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 13
4.2 Delivery status from the factory (quality management)
To verify the accuracy of the CNC machine the circular form measuring system Renishaw
QC10 is used.
Using this system the accuracy of all axles of all produced CNC machinery / CNC base
machinery becomes checked before delivery.
circular form measuring system QC10
The assembly of the QC10 is possible at each machine, and takes only a few minutes to
complete. The measuring is controlled via a simple, standard CNC program.
The data are obtained and evaluated in the diagnostic software and the errors with their
size and the corresponding impact on the overall accuracy are shown in graphical / tabular
form.
The form of recognized circles (in all three interpolation planes XY / XZ / YZ) provides
guidance on any existing machine error:
tracking error / position tolerance
straightness error / perpendicularity
measure error / backlash
quadrant transitional / circular form tolerance
The measurements are made depending on the size of the measured axes with a radius of
50mm, 100mm, 150mm and 300mm. It is always the shortest axis considered.
The delivery of any CNC machine to the customer follows only when all parameters
are within the prescribed limit. The results of the measurements are stored and
archived according the current machine resp. order.

CNC Base machinery / CNC machinery: Type FlatCom
Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 14
To test the position accuracy the laser interferometer Renishaw XL80 is used.
The laser measuring system allows both the complete testing of complex machine tools and
automation systems / special machines as well as simple positioning / motion axes.
With the available lenses extensive opportunities for static and dynamic tests are available,
e.g. the identification of the real velocity profile v = v (t) of a linear axis and thus the proof of
the continuity of meaningful signal curve:
picture: velocity profile of a linear axis with jerk limitation
The position measurement is the most commonly performed measurement on a machine.
The laser measuring system measures the positioning accuracy and repeatability by
comparing the displayed position of the machine with the laser measurement system
measured the current position.

5 Installation and connection of the CNC machine
5.1 Space requirements
The required space for the machine is limited to the outer dimensions of the machine, the
controller cabinet and the CNC control panel as well as enough space in front or side of the
machine to operate it and to be able to set up. The two-part sliding door of the machine
hood (important for FlatCom series M only) opens as downward as upward, so you need
additional space above the machine.
The space requirements for FlatCom Series L and XL are shown in the
drawings in section 12.2 (Series L) resp. 12.3 (Series XL).

Assembly instruction / Operating instruction for FlatCom Series M, L and XL page 18
5.3 Put up the CNC machine
The clamping / processing area of the CNC machine and all axes are aligned precisely at
right angles from the factory.
Never loosen the fastenings of the axles or the mounting bracket, in
which the transverse axis (X axis) is mounted. Otherwise, the machine
must be re-measured by a technician from manufacturer isel Germany
AG.
Place the machine on a plane and solid
area. You can compensate the
unevenness of the floor / table with the
adjustable feet. For precise alignment
of the machine you need a spirit level
with an accuracy of at least 0.1 mm / m.
Save the height of the machine feet
with the lock nut.

is not removeable.
The transparent panes (material: polycarbonate or PETG) mounted in the machine frame
resp. in the door ensure during operation of the machine (setup or working process)
protection against moving machine parts as well as eventually thrown work piece
fragments from the work area.
You are not allowed to put a CE marked CNC machine into operation if
the enclosure is not complete, intact or the polycarbonate resp. PETG
panes are damaged.
5.4.2 Mounting of suitable protective measures at CNC base machinery
