Solenoid 30-13112 UNCLAMP/CLAMP:

Warning: E-Stop and turn off the machine before any electrical installation

Remove a NPT plug from the air manifold inside the lubrication cabinet and install the solenoid[4] to the air manifold into the location APC DOOR INTERLOCK/PROGRAMMABLE AIR shown on the AIR - LUBRICATION SYSTEM - PICTORIAL.

Connect the red hose at the location with the red ziptie and connect the green hose at the location with the green ziptie.

Note: The ports that these hoses are installed to will determine if the vise remains clamped when power is cut to the machine. Test at end of installation.

Plug cable 33-0631[9] in at P50 on the I/O board. Plug the other end of the cable into the APC Door Interlock/Programmable Air location[1] on the solenoid bracket.

Plug the solenoid into 33-0631 at the APC Door Interlock/Programmable Air molex connector[1].

Connect cable 33-0732[7] onto the pressure switch on solenoid 30-13112[4]. Plug cable 33-0738[8] into P13 on the I/O PCB and connect the the other end to cable 33-0732[7].

Solenoid 30-11050 Air Blast:

Remove a NPT plug from the air manifold inside the lubrication cabinet and install the solenoid to the air manifold into the PROGRAMMABLE AIR BLAST SOLENOID location shown on the AIR - LUBRICATION SYSTEM - PICTORIAL.

Connect the black hose to the solenoid.

Plug the solenoid into the PALLET AIR BLAST/PROGRAMMABLE AIR molex connector[6].

Connect cable 33-0732[7] onto the pressure switch on solenoid 30-13112[4]. Plug cable 33-0738[8] into P13 on the I/O PCB and connect the the other end to cable 33-0732[7].

Solenoid 30-11050 Air Blast:

Remove a NPT plug from the air manifold inside the lubrication cabinet and install the solenoid to the air manifold into the PROGRAMMABLE AIR BLAST SOLENOID location shown on the AIR - LUBRICATION SYSTEM - PICTORIAL.

Connect the black hose to the solenoid.

Plug the solenoid into the PALLET AIR BLAST/PROGRAMMABLE AIR molex connector[6].

Note: The air lube cable part number will determine where this solenoid connects to:

• If 33-9085A, plug the solenoid into the TAB UNION SOL connector.
• If 33-9085C, plug the solenoid into the PALLET AIR BLAST connector.
• If 33-9085D, plug the solenoid into the PALLET AIR BLAST/PROGRAMMABLE AIR connector.

Table Locations

DT-1/2 - DM-1/2 - VF-1/2

The programmable air manifold can be installed almost anywhere on the table. Verify that the conduit has enough slack and does not catch on the waycovers when at its travel limits. 

VF-3/4/5

The programmable air manifold can be mounted to most locations on the table. Verify that the conduit has enough slack and does not catch on the waycovers when at its travel limits.

VF-5/40XT/50XT

Install the programmable air manifold to the right side and middle of the table[1]. Verify that the conduit has enough slack and does not catch on the waycovers when at its travel limits.

VM-2/3

The programmable air manifold can be mounted to most locations on the table. Verify that the conduit has enough slack and does not catch on the waycovers when at its travel limits.

Note: These machines come standard with Table Auxiliary Air Supply. To install the programmable air manifold, a new location on the CALM air manifold will need to be used. Depending on the machine configuration an adapter will need to be made to add the programmable air solenoid.

The user supplied programmable vise should be installed to the desired table location[1].

Use the included T-nut to attach manifold bracket to the table[2].

Install the cable clamp conduit into the right rear sheet metal panel of the machine as shown[3].

Jog the table into the furthest corner from the cable clamp conduit to set the travel length of the cable.

Jog the table into the closest corner of the conduit cable clamp and verify that the conduit doesn't interfere with the Z-Axis waycover, OMI sensor, or WIFI camera if these options are installed.

Plug the user supplied vise and airblast into the air manifold on the table.

Red ziptie location for clamp.

Green ziptie location for unclamp.

Black ziptie location for air blast.

Press SETTING and set Setting 276 Workholding Input Monitor to 15.

The clamp force of the Pneumatic Vise can be adjusted by adjusting the Air Regulator[1] on the Clamp/Unclamp solenoid. The higher the pressure, the greater the clamp force.

Verify the pressure switch functions by running the spindle in MDI: M03 S100;

Lower the air pressure all the way by turning down the regulator until the machine alarms with Alarm 180 Fixture Not Clamped. Adjust the pressure back to the desired pressure.

Press [CURRENT COMMANDS] and navigate to Devices > Workholding > Vise 1.

Press [ALTER] to setup the vise.

Press [E-Stop] and select 3.Custom Pneumatic Vise.

M70/71 CLAMP/UNCLAMP

M116/M117 AIR BLAST ON/OFF

Note: Use M70 Pn / M71 Pn to clamp or unclamp the vises setup on the workholding page. The P code defines the vise number. The range is P1 - 8. For example M70 P1 clamps Vise 1 and M71 P1 unclamps it. The system will default to Vise 1, if no P-Code is specified with M70 or M71.

Clamp/Unclamp can be operated from the Workholding tab or by commanding the Foot Pedal.

Air Blast can be operated from the Devices tab.

Verify the pressure switch functions by clamping the workholding and running the spindle in MDI: M03 S100;

Lower the air pressure to zero by turning down the regulator[1] until the machine alarms with Alarm 180 Fixture Not Clamped. Adjust the pressure back to the desired pressure.
