isel flat bed installation GFV Introduction The isel GFV Flat Bed Machining Systems are proven CNC machines that offer an abundance of possibilities for three-dimensional processing of work pieces. The machines are built and equipped in various sizes and designs. Tailored standard sections and drive elements that are combined according to requirements form the basis.
isel-flat bed installation GFV Intended use The flat bed equipment is a machine tool with several linear axes and a rotary axis. Motors and switches of the driving axes can be driven via computer. By default*, the complete control and power electronics of all axes are located in the external 19" Penguin II data terminal.
isel flat bed installation GFV Safety notes • The machine may not be operated in an explosive atmosphere. • The machine is encased all around. The enclosure protects you against moving tools, decreases the operating noise level, and restrains the chips. During processing, the hood is bolted and can not be opened.
isel-flat bed installation GFV Scope of delivery The standard scope of delivery of the flat bed installations includs: • Aluminum basic rack including - enclosure - suction tube and connection adapter • Driving axes including limit switches • Operating console •...
Normally, the cover of the enclosure turns upwards. Thus, you must keep approx. 50 to 60 cm of free space in addition. > 500 mm Dimensions and spacial requirements Model GFV 44/33 1010 1750 2300 GFV 44/73...
isel-flat bed installation GFV Transportation Remove the transport safeguards at the rack feet. Use only suitable lifting devices (fork-lift truck, lifting truck, see figure). Only raise the machine from below. Do not pull it up at the cover. During a later transportation, please ensure that the voltage supply and connection cables are not damaged.
isel flat bed installation GFV Place the machine onto a plane and solid surface. You can balance small unevennesses of the floor using the feet. To level the machine accuratetly, you need a spirit level with a minimal precision of 0,5 mm/m. 1.
isel flat bed installation GFV Memory For the computer to work error-free, approx. 600 Kbytes of conventional main memory and approx. 140 kilobytes of high memory should be available. You can check your memory when calling the Memmaker DOS program. There, enter: EMS —>...
isel-flat bed installation GFV Operating console The operation of the GFV is performed using a movable operating console. It helps to install the machine in an user-friendly manner. Emergency-Stop ... removes power from the drive controller. Unlatching by turning to the right.
isel flat bed installation GFV Activating the software The iseldrv.exe machine driver is already installed (DOS) on the control computer (CNC servo controller). You only have to load it before any start of the machining software. It is recommended to load the driver using the drv.bat batch file. (You activate the program and inform the computer where the default settings are stored for your machine.) If the file does not exist yet you can easily generate it yourself (edit drv.bat).
isel-flat bed installation GFV Operating modes - Auto In the AUTO operating mode, a loaded program is automatically executed and thus your workpieces are machined. During processing, the cover is locked. You can only open the cover after the machine has reached the HOME position and the machine (spindle) is switched off.
isel flat bed installation GFV Accessories You can order the following matching accessories for the GFV: • Clamping set (bolt lever, 2 dead stop rails, hollow wrenches) • Supplementary mounting material for the T-slot plate • Supplementary collets for the spindle: 1 to 5 mm in 0,5 mm steps, 6 mm and 1/8"...

isel-flat bed installation GFV Exhaust system For an exhaust system, a suction tube with a connecting piece for the standard diameters 32, 35 and 38 mm is pre-installed. Connect a vacuum cleaner here. The other end of the suction tube ends at the Z- axis.
isel flat bed installation GFV Cleaning/maintenance Turn off the mains switch before every cleaning and maintenance operation and pull the power plug in order to prevent the machine from starting inadvertently. - Clean the machine regularly with a broom or vacuum cleaner to remove all chips (no compressed air).

isel-flat bed installation GFV You will find two black plastic stoppers on the side of the Z-axis. Beneath these, the lubricating nipples are to be seen when the slide is located at the upper or lower end limiting switch position. Remove the stoppers, push or move the slide to the end limiting switch position* and lubricate through the now visible lubricating nipples (S) (two above, two below).
