Step 4: Adjusting the Pressure of the Compressed Air

After CAM data is sent to the machine, air is supplied during the following operations. The air pressure is automatically increased or decreased to match the material to mill.

  • When the spindle rotates
  • When the milling bur is replaced
  • When cleaning operations are performed such as those after milling finishes
Procedure
  1. Pull up on the upper knob (the air pressure adjustment knob) ().
    Pressure_ADJ
  2. Adjust the air pressure.
    1. Slowly turn the upper knob to adjust the air pressure to 0.3 MPa.
    2. Slowly turn the upper knob to increase the air pressure to 0.4 MPa.
    WARNING

    Turn the air pressure adjustment knob slowly and carefully.

    Otherwise, the machine may move suddenly, posing a risk of injury.

    IMPORTANT

    Be sure to adjust the air pressure setting to 0.4 MPa. An air pressure higher than 0.4 MPa may result in a malfunction. If the pressure is too low, the desired results will not be obtained.

    Pressure_ADJ2
    • : Increase the pressure.
    • : Decrease the pressure.

    When the supply of air starts, the air starts to flow and the pressure drops temporarily. However, it is not necessary to increase the air pressure back to 0.4 MPa.

  3. Push down on the upper knob.
