Accessory
This is an « all or nothing » axis used for the approach and withdrawal of the marking head. The difference
compared to the digital Z axis is that there are only two different positions the « advanced » and « withdrawn »
positions. There is no possibility of obtaining different levels because the positions are determined by two
mechanical stops.
ACTIVATION PER LINE : (YES or NO)
OUTPUT NUMBER : Number of the output controlling this axis
WITHDRAWAL DETECTOR : Detects input number (if present)
WITHDRAWAL TIMER : Maximum time of actuator movement
OUTPUT DETECTOR : Detects input number (if present)
OUTPUT TIMER : Maximum time of actuator movement
It operates as follows in the course of a marking cycle:
• Positioning of stylus at the coordinates of the first point to be set
• Marking head approach
• Piece marking
• Withdrawal of marking head (while remaining within the coordinates of the last impact).
• Origin setting on the two X and Y axes
Example of Z pneumatic positioning
The head moves under the effect of a pneumatic actuator controlled by the marking controller.
It is noteworthy that if you wish to incorporate the machine into any positioning cycle, selecting the pneumatic
z axis may offer advantages. It is then simply necessary to wait for a head positioning request on the static relay
output and return the end of positioning information through a simple logic controller (instead of the travel end
detectors).
For instance, using this method, you can permit positioning at several levels so that the external logic controller
manages these levels.

The D axis is a peripheral of the marking machine permitting marking on cylindrical parts. It appears as a small
chuck allowing the rotation of the parts to be identified,
If your controller has a 3rd axis card you can set the parameters of the system so that this option may be used. To do
this, go to the configuration menu then the machine selection menu. You may then activate the use of the D axis
option.
