6.3 Calibration the Vision3 sensor offset to the Cutting Blade
The Intec ColorCut LC600 engine includes a Vison3 sensor which is a 7th Generation
ARMS system (AutoMatic Registration Mark Sensor). The Vision3 sensor uses a CCD
camera to automatically detect registration marks, enabling accurate cutting and
ColorCut Pro to adapt cutting lines and compensate for any scale or skew errors.
The Vison3 sensor is mounted offset to the cutting blade holder, so your ColorCut Pro
application must be calibrated to compensate for the offset (distance ) from the Sensor
to the cutting blade.
NOTE: The sensor offset value is stored within the software application,
so if you plan to use multiple machines, you must set the sensor offset
on each computer therefore, if you are using ColorCut Pro Job server, on
a different computer as a production machine, you will need to set it on
that machine also in order to cut accurately.
Calibrating the Vison3 camera offset is extremely easy, as the software will automatically
do it for you (It can be done manually if you wanted to).
To use the AutoFind feature to set the Vison3 sensor offset, use the PEN CALIBRATION
TOOL. The pen tool is used to draw a circle, the centre of which is used to define
to point of the cutter blade, then the Vison3 ARMS sensor reads the location of the
circle and the software calculates the offset automatically for you.
1.
Place the Calibration Pen Tool
C
Holder 1
. (Normally the position for the
Blade Holder). .
2.
Set the appropriate pressure for the
Calibration Pen Tool
(Not too much pressure or you may break the pen).
With the LCD panel showing the HOME screen, you will be able to see the values
for TOOL1's SPEED and FORCE. If the screen below is not show, then press
(ON-LINE) to display the HOME screen.
Use the Left / Right keys to set the Force. (to 160 g)
Speed is not important for this, but you don't want
it too slow, or this will take a long time, so set the
speed using the UP / DOWN keys to set the speed.
(any value > 500mm/s))
When finished press the [Enter] key to accept the settings,
Now follow the steps for your Software application: ColorCut Pro.
