Use and maintenance manual TIGER 370 CNC --MR

Cutting head

The cutter head makes the cut. It is contained inside guards preventing accidental
contact with the tool and moving parts. It is moved by an electro--- mechanical
cylinder (step motor), and runs on a twin linear guide with ball---bushing sliding
blocks. This system makes the structure highly rigid, providing a better cutting
finish with less vibration and noise.

Cutting vice

The vice is the unit that clamps the workpiece during cutting; it consists of a vice
support, commonly known as a “lead nut” fixed to the work table on which a
mobile jaw is mounted. The vice is operated manually by a handwheel and locked
by a Pneumatic cylinder.

Functional parts

Control Panel

The control panel has a protection rating of IP 54 and contains the electronic
equipment. Access to the control panel is protected by a safety panel mounted on
hinges and fastened with screws, specially designed to prevent tampering. The
control panel swivels on two articulated joints so that it can be positioned by the
operator for greater ease---of---use and safety.

Feeder

The material, locked by means of the pneumatic vice, is delivered by a carriage
which conveys it along ground guides. The numeric check controls, with great
precision, the step motor of the infeed carriage, enabling the operator to set, on
the same bar, 32 batches of pieces to be cut, each with different amounts and
lengths.The material, locked by means of the pneumatic vice, is delivered by a

European standards. For the correct use of the machine we recommend that the
instructions contained in this chapter are carefully followed.

Use of the machine

The TIGER 370 CNC---MR circular saw is designed to cut exclusively non---fer-
rous profiles and solid metal sections. Other types of material and machining are
not compatible with the specific characteristics of the saw. The employer is
responsible for instructing the personnel who, in turn, are obliged to inform the
operator of any accident risks, safety devices, noise emission and accident
prevention regulations provided for by international standards and national laws
regardingtheuseofthemachine.Theoperatormustbeperfectlyawareofthe
position and function of all the machine’s controls.The instructions, warnings and
accident prevention standards in this manual must be respected without question
by all those concerned.The following definitions are those provided for by EEC
MACHINES DIRECTIVE 2006/42/CE :

H “Danger zone”: any zone in and/or around a machine in which the presence of a

person constitutes a risk for the safety and health of that person.

H “Person exposed”: any person finding himself either completely or partly in a

danger zone.

H “Operator”: the person or persons given t he responsibility of installing, operating,

adjusting, maintaining, cleaning, repairing or transporting the machine.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility whatsoever, either civil or crimi­nal, should there be unauthorised interference or replacement of one or more
parts or assemblies on the machine, or if accessories, tools and consumable
materials are used that are different from those recommended by the manu­facturer itself or if the machine is employed in a plant system and its proper
function is thereby altered.

General recommendations

BLE

Any maintenance work on the hydraulic or pneumatic systems must be
carried out only after the pressure in the system has been released.

The operator MUST NOT perform any risky operations or those not
required for the machining in course (e.g. remove swarf or metal shavings
form the machine while cutting).

Remove equipment, tools or any other objects from the cutting zone; al­ways keep the working area as clean as possible.

Do not use the machine for cutting pieces which exceed the cutting ca­pacity described in the technical specifications or are less than 5 mm

Before starting any cutting operations, ensure that the workpiece is se­curely held in the vice and the machine has been set correctly. A number
of examples of how to clamp the different profiles correctly in our ma­chines are shown below.

Never move the machine while it is cutting.

Do not use blades of different sizes to those recommended in the ma­chine’s specifications.

When cutting very short pieces, make sure that they are not dragged be­hind the support shoulder, where they could jam in the blade.

Use and maintenance manual TIGER 370 CNC --MR

When using the pneumatic vice (version MA) check that the jaws actually
move right up to and effectively block the piece, as the maximum travel
in only 6 mm, and check that the clamping pressure is correct.

When working on the bandsa w, only wear gloves when handling materials
and tool change or adjustment operations. Only carry out one operation
at a time and do not hold more t han one ite m or operate more than one
device simultaneously. Keep hands as clean as possible.

Warning: if the blade jams in the cut, press the emergency stop pushbut­ton immediately. If this does not free t he blade, slowly release the vice,
remove the piece and check that the blade or its teeth for damage, if
need be replace the blade.

Before carrying out any repair works on the machine, consult the MEP
Technical Service; this can also be done through an agency in the country
in which the machine is being used.

Emergency devices

In accordance with Standard CEI 204---1:

H Chapter 5 Section 6 Sub--section 1 ”Emergency stop device”: “the emergency

stop device immediately stops all t he dangerous and other functions of the ma­chine”.

H Chapter 6 Section 2 Subsection 4 point 7 “Safety guards”: “the removal of

safety guards protecting dangerous parts or zones of the machine causes the ma­chine to shut down immediately. When the guards are returned to their original
position the machine must be reset in order to resume work”.

...Emergency devices applicable to the TIGER 370 CNC ---MR:

1. Emergency stop: a non--- return mushroom---head pushbutton, colour red on
yellow background, is located on the control panel of the machine. To release
the pushbutton, the actuator must be rotated 45° . After the emergency situ­ation has been resolved, the machine must be reset.

MEP S.p.A.

Use and maintenance manual TIGER 370 CNC --MR

2. Thermal--- magnetic circuit breaker: this device incorporates two power fail-
ure protection systems. In fact, in the event of a power failure, it disconnects
all the electrical components, causing the machine to shut down immediately
and prevents it from automatically starting up again when power is restored.
The device also resets the thermal relay fitted to protect against current over­loads.

3. Head casing safety switch: to access the cutting zone it is necessary to open
the front door, pressing the relevant button on the control console. This de­vice cannot be removed and has timed opening; therefore, it can only be
opened 5 or 10 seconds after the processing cycle has stopped.

Noise level of the machine

Noise can cause hearing damage and represents one the problems faced by many
countries who adopt their own standards. In accordance with the EEC MA-
CHINES DIRECTIVE 2006/42/CE , we are listing the standards that specify noise
levels for machine tools. This chapter also reports the noise levels produced by
the TIGER 370 CNC---MR during its various operating phases and the methods
used for measuring these levels. The Italian standard governing this aspect is
D.M.n.277/91 drawn from EEC Directives 80/1107, 82/605, 83/477, 86/188, 88/642,
UNI EN ISO 4871 (1998).

Noise level measurement

Noise levels are measured using an instrument known as an Integrator noise--­meter which registers the equivalent continuous acoustic pressure level at the
work station. The damage caused by noise depends on three parameters: level,
frequency and duration. The equivalent level concept Leq combines the three
parameters and supplies just one indication. The Leq is based on the principle of
equal energy, and represents the continuous stationary level containing the same
amount of energy, expressed in dBA, as that actually fluctuating over the same
period of time. This calculation is made automatically by the integrator noise --­meter. The measurements are taken every 60 seconds, in order to obtain a
stabilised value. The reading stays on the display for a sufficient time to enable a
reading to be taken by the operator.Measurements are taken by holding the
instrument at approximately 1 metre from the machine at a height of 1.60 metres
above the platform at the operator’s work s tation. Two measurements are taken:
the first while the machine operates without cutting anything, the second while
cutting in manual mode.

Electromagnetic compatibility

As from 1 January 1996 all electrical and electronic appliances bearing the CE
marking that are sold on the European market must conform to Directive
2004/108/CE e 2006/95/CE and 2006/42/C

EE. The prescriptions regard two

specific aspects in particular:

1. “EMISSIONS: during its operation, the appliance or system must not emit spurious
electromagnetic signals of such magnitude as to contaminate the surrounding
electromagnetic environment beyond clearly prescribed limits”;

2. “IMMUNITY: the appliance or system must be able to operate correctly even when
it is placed in an electromagnetic environment that is contaminated by disturbances
of defined magnitude”.

Machine installation

Packaging and storage

MEP S.p.A. use packing materials that guarantee the integrity and protection of
the machine during its transport to the customer.

The type of packing differs according to the size, weight and destination.
Therefore the customer will receive the machine in one of two following ways:

1. on a pallet with straps and heat---shrink plastic;

2. on a pallet with straps, heat--- shrink plastic and a wooden crate.

In both cases, for correct balancing the machine must be handled using a
fork-- lift truck, inserting the tines at the points indicated by the arrows, using
the reference marks on the crate itself.

Before carrying out lifting operations, make sure that the weight of the ma­chine, as indicated on the crating or other packaging, is within the forklift truck
load limit.

Do not handle the packed machine using slings.

When storing, machines palletized and shrink--wrapped must not be stacked
two high, and machines pallettized and crated must not be stacked three high.

To install the machine, first remove the packing, paying particular attention not to
cut any electric wires or hydraulic hoses; if necessary use pliers, a hammer and a
cutter.
Open crate in the illustrated order:
