The equipment conforms to current technology and approved safety requirements. Domino D-Series Laser marking systems are produced by Domino Laser GmbH Germany. For Sales and support contact Domino. This safety standard, however, can only be achieved if all intended and required measures have been taken and are constantly observed.
Page 16: Designated Use
HEALTH & SAFETY DESIGNATED USE The D-Series laser marking system is exclusively designated for fully automated marking of packaging materials and products by laser radiation. If the laser marking system is used for improper purposes, all liability claims will be refused. The technical specifications listed in “TECHNICAL REFERENCE”...
Page 17 HEALTH & SAFETY Before turning the laser equipment on, check and ensure that: • The laser system has been installed and guarded to Class 1 laser safety standards (EN60825), see “CLASS 1 GUARDING” on page 1-9 • Only authorised personnel should be present within the operating area of the laser marking system.
Page 18: Safety Symbols
HEALTH & SAFETY SAFETY SYMBOLS In this manual the following safety symbols have been used to alert the reader to the text of the safety instruction next to it. This manual provides specific safety instructions for the operation of the laser marking system.
Page 19: Specific Dangers
HEALTH & SAFETY SPECIFIC DANGERS Electrical Energy In the D-Series laser marking system, the maximum operating voltage is the connected mains voltage, which can pose a hazard to health. The mains voltage to be maintained is shown on the name plate. Work on live components must only be performed by authorised personnel.
Page 20: Harmful Dusts And Vapours
HEALTH & SAFETY Class 2 The accessible laser radiation is visible and is harmless for accidental exposure to eyes for periods of less than 0.25 seconds. Class 2M The accessible laser radiation is visible and is harmless for accidental exposure to eyes for periods of less than 0.25 seconds, provided additional optical instruments are not used.
Page 21: Class 1 Guarding
HEALTH & SAFETY CLASS 1 GUARDING The following type of guarding, using the recommended materials and construction techniques, is required to achieve a Class 1 installation. Access Guards Access guards are required to prevent direct human access to the laser beam. In practice, this requires full guarding of the area between, and including, the laser output lens and the area to be marked on the substrate.
Page 22: Materials
These labels are supplied with the laser system. Additional labels are available from Domino Printing Sciences plc as part of the Guarding Labels Kit, Part Number L007628. 1-10...
Page 23: Specific Precautions During Maintenance Or Repair Work
• Never look directly into the Laser beam (not even, when wearing protective goggles) • Never expose skin to laser radiation • Never insert flammable materials into the radiation beam. Laser protective goggles, approved for the respective intended purpose can be ordered from Domino. L025317 Issue 1 March 2011 1-11...

Page 46 INSTALLATION The Shaft Encoder input is directly connected in parallel with the Product Detect Interface. For this reason the electrical specification is identical as well. For the same reason, the standard encoder cable has no “Z” connection in order not to get signal collision with the product detector.

Page 59: Use Of Interlock Loops
INSTALLATION USE OF INTERLOCK LOOPS Functionality The D-Series Interlock circuit is controlled by a certificated E-Stop relay PNOZ S4 from PILZ. By means of 1 or 2 interlock circuits safety category 2,3 or 4 can be reached. With CAT4 a cross fault monitoring detects shorts between the interlock loops.

Page 62: Safety Category 2
INSTALLATION Safety Category 2 To reach the safety category 2, only one interlock circuit is used. Typically one guard door switch contact controls the interlock circuit. The control wheel needs to be turned to the upper left position as shown in the X29 diagram on page 2-30 (factory setting).

INSTALLATION Timing The next picture shows the general E-Stop Relay timing: L025317 Issue 1 March 2011 2-33...
Page 64: Typical Installation Faults
INSTALLATION Typical installation faults Interlock 1 is connected with guard door 1 and interlock 2 with guard door 2. In this case the principle of redundancy would be violated. Furthermore the operator has to open both doors to make the next relay start possible. Active electronic parts such as transistors or light barriers feed an external voltage into the interlock circuit.
Page 65: Compressed Air Connection, Chilling
INSTALLATION COMPRESSED AIR CONNECTION, CHILLING The Laser Head is equipped with a connection for compressed air with a typical flow rate of 280 litres per minute (10 cubic feet per minute (cfm)) - actual air flow is duty cycle and ambient dependent. This air cools the laser and keeps the objective lens free from dust.
Page 66: Connection Of Compressed Air To The Laser
INSTALLATION Connection of Compressed Air to the Laser WARNING: Maximum operating air pressure is 3.5 bar! Connect the hose from the air installation kit to the laser compressed air inlet. A pressure control valve is at the air inlet. It limits the air flow into the laser cabinet to 450 liters per minute and opens at a supply pressure above 3 bar.
Page 67: Air Flow Settings
INSTALLATION Note: Contact Domino. before disconnecting the silencer or connecting a hose to the air outlet 2 at the laser. If two hoses are used for the compressed air outlets these have always to be seperated from each other and to be placed in differnt ways for safety reasons.

The DPX500, DPX1000, DPX1500 and DPX2000 will be equipped with a connector for the Domino D-Series Laser System. WARNING:...
Page 72: Guarding
INSTALLATION GUARDING Guarding must be installed surrounding the laser head marking area in order to achieve a Class 1 installation of this Class 4 laser system (See “CLASS 1 GUARDING”). INITIAL OPERATION WARNINGS: Initial Operation laser marking system must only be performed by qualified personnel and in accordance with all valid regulations and safety instructions.
Page 73: Installation Wizard
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION WIZARD This procedure is for trained personnel only. When logged with password "user4" this installation wizard will not be available to the operator. The Installation Wizard is the simple way to configure the printer. Note: System settings can only be changed after entering the Supervisor password, that is only known by employees authorized to carry out this level of change.
Page 74: Positioning Code On The Product
INSTALLATION POSITIONING CODE ON THE PRODUCT The position of the code on the product depends on two factors: (1) The location of the product detector (print-go), relative to the mark window on the product; and (2) The ‘Encoder Delay’ setting in the software. The D-Series laser can start marking as soon as the print-go signal is received.
Page 75 INSTALLATION The encoder delay can be set on a message-by-message basis, which allows a single product detector location to be used for multiple sizes of product or to allow different code locations on products of the same size. To set the encoder delay login as administrator and navigate to: System Setup, Settings, Marking Engine, Marking Mode.
Page 76: Achieving Maximum Line Speed
INSTALLATION Achieving Maximum Line Speed The D-Series includes a feature to extend the marking field when a moving product is marked as it moves past the print head. This feature is used to achieve maximum line speed. Marking mode has to be configured for "Marking on the Fly". Therefore adjust the marking mode via: System Setup, settings, Marking Engine, Marking Mode Screen setup for Marking on the Fly...
Page 77 INSTALLATION Example of a setup message to be marked. Marking starts when the marking field of the product is moved into the marking area of the laser. Product movement direction Product Marking field on product Marking area To achieve maximum line speed, the field can be extended behind the marking direction.
Page 78 INSTALLATION To extend the marking field in Dynamark 3, move the object in the opposite direction to the movement outside the marking field. Marking starts as the product marking field enters the marking area. Product movement direction Product Marking field on product Marking area Note: Moving the mark on the screen, whether in the real or extended fields, can...
Page 79: Making Marks Longer Than One Field Size
INSTALLATION Making marks longer than one field size By using extended fields it is possible to mark an object that exceeds one field size. The procedure is the same as described previously on extending the marking field in Dynamark 3. Move the marking object out of the real field against the product movement direction and into an extended field.
