Page 16

The digital position display DPA 2000S is preassembled.

INFORMATION

If you want to use the digital position display you need at least one measuring gauge. Measuringgauges are not part of the delivery volume of the digital position display.

The position display DPA 2000S offers you the option to connect absolutely measuring as wellas incrementally measuring position sensors.

Only use original OPTIMUM path-measuring systems, since the position display is only adju-sted to such path-measuring system and this way will guarantee a safe functioning.

3.1 Delivery volume

Upon delivery immediately check if the device had been damaged during transport. Comparethe delivery volume with the data on the delivery note.

3.2 Storage

CAUTION!

In case of improper storage it is possible that important components are being damaged and destroyed.Store the packed or already unpacked device only at dry environmental conditions at a temperature from 0 °C to 40 °C.

If you need to store the device or any accessory parts for more than three months and underother environmental conditions than those prescribed by this manual, contact the companyOptimum Maschinen Germany GmbH.

3.3 Adding the device

3.3.1 Requirements for the installation site

CAUTION!

When choosing the installation site, please take into account the length of the connection lines for the measuring gauges.

The installation site needs to be dry and vibration-free and comply with the ergonomic requi-rements of a working place. Observe the safety instructions for working nearby machine tools.

The working area for the operation, maintenance and repair works must not be hindered byadding the position display.

3.3.2 Installing the device

The device needs to be positioned freely at an appropriate place or be mounted to a horizontalsubsurface or to a wall using the attached fixing material.

3.3.3 Assembling the measuring gauges

GB

CAUTION!

Only use path-measuring systems recommended by OPTIMUM. When assembling the path-measuring systems imperatively follow the instructions of the manufacturer.

Before mounting it on the machine, check the operability of the measuring gauges. To do so, use the digital position display DPA 2000S or a similar device.

Install the measuring gauge in a way that it will not be damaged by cutting tools or coolants. If required, mount a cover.

If possible, mount the enclosed measuring gauges with the sealing lips showing downward.

If possible, place the reading head stationary in order to avoid damages of the connection lines by its movements.

CAUTION!

The path-measuring system and its add-on pieces can cover important components on the ma-chine tool (e.g. lubricating nipples).

Before mounting the path-measuring systems, please note such limitations in functions andmake arrangements accordingly.

3.3.4 Assembly of the reading head

Mount a fixture for the reading head.

Fix the reading head to the fixture.

Remove possibly existing assembly aids from the reading head.

Check the orientation of the reading head using a dial gauge (refer to the tolerances for the assembly given by the manufacturer).

Check if all components are moving freely.

3.4 Linking the position display to a frequency converter

The position display DPA 2000S is equipped with the function „cutting constant“ which allows toinfluence the spindle speed of a lathe in a way that the same cutting speed will result at the wor-king point of the tool independent from the workpiece radius.

To do so, the control of the DPA 2000S will directly influence the frequency converter (FC).

We mainly use frequency converters of the manufacturer LENZE for OPTIMUM lathes.Therefore, we will explain the linking of the DPA 2000S to this frequecy converter in detail below.

3.4.1 System requirements:

To operate only using the function „cutting constant“ a frequency converter (FC) having ananalog input 0 V - 10 V DC is required.

For an operation using the function „cutting constant“ for remaining options of the manual speedregulation, a frequency converter with two analog inputs is required:

0 V - 10 V DC for speed control via DPA 2000S (cutting constant control)0 V - 05 V DC for speed control via the potentiometer

The following items are required in addition:

ON/OFF switch to switch over between the manual speed setting and the cutting constant control

ON/OFF switch to switch over between the working ranges 1 and 2 for cutting constant opera-tion (refer to commissioning)Potentiometer for the manual speed setting (e.g. 1kΩ for frequency converters made by the manufacturer LENZE)Application module made by LENZE (type E 82 ZAFAC 001)Perforated disk for the speed recording (with 8 holes for small and 16 holes for large lathe chuck seats)Fork light barrier for speed recording

Please refer to the current OPTIMUM main catalog for optional accessories.

3.4.2 Electrical connection:

© 2011

G

The connection to the DPA 2000S is performed via the cable included in the delivery volumeusing SubD plugs - 15 pins (refer to page 11 paragraph 2.5)

1. Connect the grey cable (1) from the SubD plug to the black cable of the fork light barrier.2. Connect the brown cable (2) to the brown cable of the fork light barrier.3. Connect the blue cable (6) to the blue cable of the fork light barrier.4. Bridge over the green (3) and the blue cable (6).5. Connect the red cable (5) to the frequency converter at the input for the control voltage

(0 V - 10 V) 6. Connect the yellow cable (7) via the switch (NO switch) to the blue cable (6).7. Connect the white cable (9) for analog grounding GND to GND at the frequency converter

(for LENZE FU terminal 7).

Wiring diagram to connect the DPA 2000S on the following page

You need to set the maximum admissible speed of the lathe using the FC.

Danger! Do not exceed the maximum speed of the clamping devices. You can only make sure thelimitation of the maximum speed by using the FC. Set the frequency converter in a way that the maximum admissible speed of the clampingdevice will not be exceeded for both working ranges of the DPA 2000S.

In order to achieve the maximum possible speeds for the „cutting constant control“ which isresulting of the combination of your lathe with the position display it might be necessary to useclamping devices of a higher maximum speed.

If it is required to change over to manual speed setting an allpication module with two analoginputs will be additionally required. For programming data please refer to the attached manual.

When using the function „cutting constant“ the following settings of the parameters need to beprogrammed:

( „Internal parameter setting“ on page 5-36)

P19: Please enter the number of switchings on the fork light barrier per revolution (e.g.perforated disk with 8 holes = 8 switchings)

P20: Enter the value „1“ (recommended)

NOTE: The DPA 2000S supports two gear levels. Determine the two gear levels of your lathe in whichyou want to use the cutting constant functions. All control values which you have set on the DPA2000S are this way only referring to this gear level. For another gear level the modified transfor-mation will lead to deviations between the target value and the actual value, in particular forspindle speeds.

DANGER!If the lathe is operated in another gear level, the admissible maximum speed can beexceeded. This way, the retention force of the clamping devices will be reduced when thecentrifugal force is increasing. In doing so, the workpiece might get loose and fly off themachine.For your own safety use the cutting constant function only for the two selected gearlevels for which you have specified and entered the parameters.

To do so, determine the minimum and maximum speed of the selected gear levels.

Example:

Nominal speed of the gear level: 900 1/min

Set frequency range on the FC from 10 Hz to 50 Hz

Minimum speed for 10 Hz 180 1/min

Maximum speed for 50 Hz 900 1/min

P21: Enter the value of the maximum speed for the selected gear level 1.

P22: Enter the value of the minimum speed for the selected gear level 1.

P23: Enter the value of the maximum speed for the selected gear level 2.

P24: Enter the value of the minimum speed for the selected gear level 2.

When you have executed the above steps the commissioning of the DPA 2000S is terminated.

Switch over between the manual speed setting and the cutting constant control using the corres-ponding ON/OFF switch. The two switch settings need to be marked by the function markingswhich are being switched.
