1. Notes on safety

In the interests of your own safety, please observe the following safety instructions:

General
• Trainees must only work on a station under the supervision of an instructor.
• Observe the data in the data sheets for the individual components, particularly
all safety instructions!

Electrical
• Electrical connections are to be wired-up or disconnected only when the power
supply is turned off!
• Use only extra-low-voltages of up to max. 24 V DC.

Pneumatic
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible pressure of 8 bar (800 kPa).
• Do not switch on the compressed air supply until you have established and
secured all tubing connections.
• Do not disconnect air lines under pressure.
• Particular care is to be taken when switching on the compressed air supply.
Cylinders may advance or retract as the compressed air is switched on.

Mechanical
• Attach all components securely on the mounting plate.
• No manual intervention is to take place unless the machine is at rest.

2. Short description

View Lifting module

The workpieces are lifted from the Sensing module to the measuring module by
means of the Lifting module. The actuators used are a rodless lifting cylinder and an
ejecting cylinder. The moving compressed air tubing and electrical cables are routed
via the cable guide.

The end position sensing of the cylinders is effected by magnetic or inductive

proximity sensors.
