It is important that the parallelism of the GY axis to the backfence is set and maintained along the length of the rack. This tutorial describes how to check this parallelism without the need for measuring equipment
'''General Procedure'''
#Find range of adjustment required
#Zero GY axis to ensure range adjustment can be met
#Move to straight edge resting points, Adjust rollers at these points
#Use straight edge between resting points to adjust the other rollers to a fixed datum
'''Potential Symptoms of a problem'''
*Gripper cannot pick up offcuts
*Gripper /profile end forced away from backfence
*Accuracy problems
*Gripper wobbles after it has released profile

'''Applies to: A2026-A2030 Autoflow Mk4 with Jetta Locking motors'''
In certain circumstances, the forward clamp roller arm has stuck itself under the gripper arm. Freeing from this situation requires a set process because the GZ axis motor is braked and probably in an overload condition

This tutorial covers the setup of the Local SQL Express database instance and creating a "ProOpt" database structure on it.
<br/>
*This database installed on the 'Location' local network.
*The 'Machines' write their production data to it
*The 'Gateway' software uploads this data to the StuertzCloud server

On Autoflow 2 Sawing Centres following 5 years of use., it has been found that the internal saw centre framework can lose its rigidity. this is probably due to "bruising" or denting of the aluminium joints introducing a slight amount of play. This is exacerbated by the design where it is attached and driven on from the base up
A retrofit kit of parts has previously been created to allow additional reinforcement to be introduced within the structural framework. This kit builds upon the first kit to provide further accuracy enhancements by
#Adding left right stability with additional slide rails at the top of the subframe
#Adding front / back stability by moving the SY axis leadscrew to the same height as the saw table
====Parts required: ====
R0010272 Kit: Saw Frame Rigidity Pt 2
This kit consists of 2 carriage assemblies, specifically designed to provide further rigidity to the top of the Saw Head Assembly. In addition, 2 mounting blocks required to relocate the Saw Y Axis Assembly are also included. This allows the Saw Y Axis Assembly to continue to operate accurately, but improves the life of associated components.

* Updating software can be very complicated, so care must be taken and always ensure there is a route to retrace your steps in the event of a failure – with Baldor .mnt files this is easy because each version is a separate file and therefore easy to load the old one back in again
* In general, the Baldor (.mnt) software has been designed to be backwards compatible, but there are a few steps that needed to be taken that made this impossible. In these cases, the front end software (winMulti or winSaw) also needs to be updated – you will get an error to tell you that this is the case
* Version numbers have always followed a numerical order, so the higher the number, the later the version
* Mnt files should always be stored in
** c:\multi on MH side – called Multi X.xxx.mnt
** c:\saw on Saws or Saw side of flowline – called IgSaw X.xx.mnt

The previous design of screen cover was susceptible to cracking and failing. The new design resolves this by having a metal hinge piece and an additional clear plastic plate, with both being joined by 3M VHB (Very High Bond) tape.

<u>Problem</u>
These machines use a CX5020 PC with a 2Gb CF card running TwinCAT2 PLC system. The CF card can fail, which is effectively the windows operating system. The CF card has a very small capacity, so needs to be created from an image. This TB outlines the steps in the process to ensure a successful conclusion.
1. Create a new CF card at stuga using the beckhoff imaging tool on a CX5020
2. Boot up with the CX5020
3. Ensure PLC is set to Enable on start-up (default is config mode)
4. Rename the PC
5. Install TeamViewer host v10 or less from a USB stick
6. If you have a copy of the version of winMulti it was running, copy this in to the c:\ multi folder. If not, a “'''''new version install'''''” will be needed so copy in data from the g:\builds\PC Installs\Autoflow\Multi folder
7. Set up and customer specific network parameters to ensure TeamViewer will work when it is plugged in on site
8. Send to customer
Once on site, follow procedure A if the winMulti version is preserved, or B if it is a '''''new version install''''' +
