Machine code: DEV8 The DEV8 micro percussion marking machine is a “CE” marked product, built in accordance with the norms of the European Community, as described in the 2006/42/CE Machine Directive, 2014/30/UE Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive, 2014/35/UE Low Voltage Directive and successive amendments.
Intended use The DEV8 micro percussion marking machine – produced and sold to be installed and integrated into a production line or as an adjunct to pre-existing machinery – conforms to the current laws and is destined solely for professional use by appropriately authorised and trained personnel.
There must only be one operator responsible for operating the machine. Stand-alone The DEV8 marking machine can be used as a stand-alone machine not integrated into a production line or other devices that extend the compatibility with the essential health and safety requirements of the 2006/42/EC Directive by adding safety repairs.
During the warranty period, in accordance with the contract agreements and with reference to Your orders, Delta visione s.r.l. is completely available for interventions on the DEV8 Marking System provided that: • The causes of malfunction are not due to improper or wrong use of the machine •...

DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Description and characteristics General description The DEV8 scribe machine is made up of two main parts (see the figure below): • Marking Head • Hardware-software Control Unit. Figure 4 – Overall view Item Description...
sistemi di marcatura industriale sistemi di visione artificiale Marking head The marking head contains the body of the punch that performs the marking operations, and the motors and transmission elements for moving the punch. All the moving parts of the marking head are isolated by a protective metal cover, which can be removed exclusively for maintenance purposes by unscrewing the fastening screws and with the machine at a standstill.

System management software manual) The DEV8 marking machine uses a software interface that can be run directly from the integrated keyboard or from an external keyboard connected to one of the USB ports situated on the side panel of the Control Unit.
DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Stop button Figure 12 – Control Unit (top view) The STOP button is situated in the upper left part of the control panel (see the figure above). The button can be pushed at any time, causing the immediate interruption of machine operation. If any further operations are attempted, the following message will be displayed: In addition to the above error message, the red LED on the left-hand side of the display will light up.

DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Installation This chapter describes how to install the machine. For the details relative to the size and operative space please refer to the manufacturing drawings supplied with the machine. Page 19...
Installation Once removed from its packaging, the DEV8 marking machine can be prepared for commissioning. Connections Electrical connection The machine has a 230 VAC PC-type VDE power socket. To avoid the presence of current inside the machine during maintenance operations, the mains connection must have a device for shutting off the main power supply.
Noise The DEV8 marking machine was designed in such a way as to reduce to a minimum the sound emissions caused by the movement and drives of the punch. The system is however used for marking parts whose shape and material may vary considerably and so its noise emissions therefore also vary.
Stand-alone operation The DEV8 marking machine can be used as a stand-alone machine not integrated into a production line or other devices that extend the compatibility with the essential health and safety requirements of the 2006/42/EC Directive by integrating measures to reduce the acoustic pressure.
DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Putting the machine into operation To put the machine into operation for the first time, proceed as follows: 1. Place the marking unit in the operating area or integrate it into an existing line.
sistemi di marcatura industriale sistemi di visione artificiale Operational faults A machine used correctly and subjected to the necessary cleaning and maintenance guarantees that it will function properly in time. If operational faults occur, the operator has some system diagnostic tools at his disposal, accessible using the functions available on the TEST menu (see the “test Menu”...
• NOISE: The DEV8 marking system has been designed in such a way as to reduce to a minimum the sound emissions caused by the movement and drives of the punch. The system is however used for marking parts whose shape and material may vary considerably and so its noise emissions therefore also vary.
DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Commands and signals The machine is controlled by means of the touch-screen monitor located on the top of the Control Unit. The management software of the marking system allows controlling all standard operative functions of the machine, setting up the various marking options, monitoring the correct machine operation, receiving the error messages and perform the relative corrective actions.
DEV8 – Use and Maintenance Manual Ordinary maintenance This section describes the ordinary maintenance procedures. If deemed necessary, you can contact the support service of Delta visione (see the details in the “Maintenance service” section). Prerequisites and cautions The maintenance operations must be performed with the machine off and in full compliance with all applicable safety regulations.
