KONGSBERG C-series precision cutting system: versatile digital cutting solution

Production settings: Set quantity, precision/speed priority, reference point, layout, positioning method, and material handling.

Speed setting: Choose high-precision or high-speed mode according to your needs.

Corrugated direction setting: Ensure that the indentation direction matches the material's corrugated direction.

Vacuum area selection: Select the vacuum area according to the material contour to ensure the best adsorption effect.

perform tasks

Before pressing the start button, it is necessary to confirm that there are no obstacles on the table, no one is approaching the danger zone, the material positioning is correct, and the cutting tools have been calibrated.

Chapter 4: Advanced Operational Techniques

Vacuum optimization

Close the vacuum area outside the material area to reduce airflow waste.

Move the material position to minimize cross zone.

Cover open areas with tape or waste to enhance adhesion.

Thick material cutting (45-50mm)

Disable camera operation.

Prohibit material thickness measurement.

Disable the 'Reference depth from top' function.

Refer to the bottom for cutting depth.

Composite processing of cardboard

Adopting a three-step method: HPMU milling the top layer → HF VibraCut vibration knife cutting the middle layer → HPMU milling the bottom layer.

Multiple processing

Suitable for deep indentation or thick material milling:

Copy layers and set different depths.

The first pass has a depth of 50%, and the second pass has a depth of 70%.

When milling thick materials, it is recommended that the depth of each pass be equal to the diameter of the milling cutter.

Reverse homework

When processing from both sides of the material:

Based on the ruler: Use the left and right baffles to flip and align to the left.

Based on camera: Read the positioning mark, flip it and read it again.

You need to enable the reverse operation function in the tool configuration and specify the flipping method in the layer (Turn flips around the X axis, Tumble flips around the Y axis).

Multi regional production

Suitable for ultra long materials or continuous operations. Each workspace is equipped with an independent control panel (ready light, ready button, vacuum button). Operators can load and unload materials in Zone B while processing in Zone A, achieving a streamlined operation. Note that the crossbeam may partially enter adjacent areas, and operators should avoid triggering the safety system in hazardous areas.

Chapter 5: System Settings and Calibration

To ensure machining accuracy, the system needs to complete the following settings:

X1-X2 angle correction: Ensure that the X-axis is perpendicular to the Y-axis.

Table size calibration: measure the effective processing range.

Measurement station position calibration: Ensure accurate measurement of tool height.

Ruler position setting: precise positioning of left and right baffles.

Main reference point setting: Fixed drilling cross markings on the table.

Surface mapping of countertop: Draw a height map to compensate for cutting depth.

Measurement station calibration: Calibrate the height of the measuring foot.

Reference point system

Main reference point: Fixed and unchanging, all user reference points are based on this.

User defined reference points: Multiple can be set for fixed position repetitive tasks.

Panel reference point: Set the current laser position as the reference point at any time through the operation panel.

Joystick settings

Customizable jog step size, fast push joystick for large step, slow push for small step.

Chapter 6: Tool Configuration and Adjustment

The C series supports two tool positions, P1 and P2, and can install multiple tool heads. The system automatically identifies tool types through hardware coding on the tool board.

Tool adjustment process

Enter the "Tool Configuration" dialog box.

Select the tool that needs to be adjusted.

Click on 'Adjust Activity Tool' and select the corresponding wizard:

Lag setting: The distance from the center of the rotating tool to the tip of the tool affects the accuracy of the curve.

Tool height calibration: Automatic measurement of tool tip height with added offset.

Rotation adjustment: Make the tangent direction of the tool consistent with the direction of motion.

Center offset adjustment: Align the tool center with the motion path.

Tool offset adjustment: Align the tool position with the laser point.

Perform test cutting and fine tune parameters.

Multiple tools of the same type

By using the dip switch on the tool board, numbers 1-4 can be set, and the system automatically remembers the adjustment parameters for each tool.

Chapter 7: Detailed Explanation of Tool System

measuring station

The C series comes with an automatic measuring station as standard, which automatically measures the height of the cutting edge every time the machine is turned on, tools are changed, or the safety system is triggered, without the need for manual adjustment. To increase the cutting depth, offset can be added through tool height calibration.

HDU heavy-duty tool head

Suitable for V-notch knives, HD knives, 150mm indentation wheels, indentation adapters, and punching wheels.
