Term Meaning
Laser Device for generating laser radiation. Lasers consist of a resonator that comprises a
laser active medium and a partially reflective and translucent mirror.
Laser device Laser plus components for operating the laser such as control technology, energy sup-
ply, cooling system, gas system etc.
Laser system Machine, to which a laser device is connected or should be connected later. The
terms machine and laser system are used as synonyms in this document.
Laser network A laser network is comprised of several processing systems which are connected to a
laser device via laser light cable. The processing systems can use the laser radiation
in alteration.
Processing optics Processing optics is a generic term. It can mean either a laser cutting head, a laser
welding head or a combination head depending on the machine.
Terms Tab. 1-2
Machine The user may use the machine only in the industrial sector.
The installation, operating and transport conditions prescribed by
TRUMPF must be adhered to and the maintenance work must
be performed. The installation and operation must comply with
the relevant national regulations that are valid in the country of
operation. The user must adhere to the national regulations.
The laser device may be operated, only if all protective and
safety devices are in place and working.
In case of malfunctions, the laser device must be switched off
immediately and prevented from being switched on again.
The user may laser cut three-dimensional workpieces with the
machine. Only metallic materials may be processed with the
machine.
Laser protection device The machine's laser protection devices, for example the window
of the safety cabin, are designed for the wavelength and the
power of the laser device delivered with the machine.
If a laser device is connected with a different wavelength or
power, of if the machine was supplied without a laser, then the
user is obliged to check the effectiveness and suitability of the
existing laser protection devices. The user is responsible for safe
operation.
Exemption from liability Any other form of use is considered unauthorized use. TRUMPF
is not liable for any damage, especially personnel injuries and
production failures resulting from this. The risk is borne solely by
the operator. The warranty will be voided.
Laser systems are classified into laser classes as per the Euro-
pean Standard EN 60825-1 (USA: ANSI Z136.1, ANSI B11.21).
The laser class corresponds to the hazard level of the laser light
emitted.
class Description
1 The accessible laser radiation is not dangerous under sensibly predictable
conditions.
2M The accessible laser radiation lies in the visible spectral range of 400 nm
to 700 nm. It is not dangerous for eyes in the case of short exposure time
(up to 0.25 s) as long as the beam is not observed through optical instru-
ments (magnifying glass, lens, telescope). Additional radiation parts
outside the wavelength spectrum of 400-700 nm fulfill the conditions of
class 1M.
2 The accessible laser radiation lies in the visible spectral range (400 nm to
700 nm). It is not dangerous for the eyes when the exposure time is lim-
ited (up to 0.25 s). Additional radiation parts outside the wavelength spec-
trum of 400-700 nm fulfill the conditions of class 1.
Eyes are normally protected from the laser light by turning away and clos-
ing the eyelids.
3R The accessible laser radiation is in the wavelength spectrum of 302.5 nm
to 106 nm and is hazardous to the eye. The power or the energy is maxi-
mum 5x the limit value of the permissible radiation of class 2 in the wave-
length range of 400 nm to 700 nm.
4 The accessible laser radiation is very dangerous to the eyes and danger-
ous to the skin. Diffused radiation can also be dangerous. The laser radia-
tion can lead to a risk of fire and explosion.
Safety precautions must be implemented for laser devices of class 4; ade-
quate eye protection is primarily important.
Laser systems of class 4 are usually sufficiently powerful to burn the skin,
ignite fires and ionize the atmosphere during focussing. Thus, a series of
additional safety measures is required.
Overview of laser classes Tab. 1-3
Pilot laser TruDisk The laser device can contain class 3R laser diodes. The red
light of the laser diodes is used for adjustment work on the
machine.
Notes
■ The extinguishing openings at the compact dust extractor are
marked with a label and closed by a lid.
■ Caution when opening the extinguisher opening – flames can
emerge.
Conditions
■ The extinguisher system is switched on.
■ Extinguishing gas cylinder is open.
Note
Keep a fire extinguisher to hand at all times. A fire can re-ignite
if oxygen is added.
Conditions
■ The extinguisher system is switched on.
■ Extinguishing gas cylinder is open.
Note
Keep a fire extinguisher to hand at all times. A fire can re-ignite
if oxygen is added.
Using the MultiCoater The MultiCoater is an option for the compact dust extractor (fil-
tering installation). The MultiCoaters works cyclically or in contin-
uous operation to apply calcium carbonate or trass powder (dis-
pensing material) to the filter elements of the compact dust
extractor.
If the MultiCoater is used for preventive fire protection ("inertiza-
tion"), dispensing material is added continuously to the sepa-
rated, highly reactive dust to minimize the risk of fires.
Notice! Even the use of a MultiCoater does not provide a
100% protection against fire.
The effectiveness of the preventive fire protection depends on
the metering of the dispensing material added. The dispensed
quantity and the metering interval are controlled by parameters
and depend on the material to be processed.
During start-up, the MultiCoater will be configured for a particular
operating mode: "Inertization" or "Precoating".
If the conditions for the "Inertization" mode change, the user may
only change the configuration of the MultiCoaters in consultation
with the manufacturer.
Notes
■ If the MultiCoater is configured for "Precoating" operating
mode during start-up, there is no sufficient preventive fire
protection compared to the "Inertization" operating mode due
to the reduced addition of dispensing material to the sepa-
rated dust.
■ If the user deviates from the parameters defined during
start-up without consulting the manufacturer, then the
user is solely responsible for the effectiveness of the
resulting preventive fire protection.
Oil residue on workpieces Oil residue on workpieces, especially oil spills on, for example,
rolled or deep-drawn workpieces will vaporize during laser proc-
essing. The oil vapor becomes incrusted onto tube walls and fil-
ter elements.
If there is a high concentration of oil vapor and deposits, then
there is a risk of fires and explosions due to sparks.
Required safety device If it is usually oiled workpieces that are machined in the laser
processing machine, then the compact dust extractor has be
equipped with a MultiCoater to protect the filter elements in the
compact dust extractor (filtering installation) and to minimize the
fire risk.
Using the MultiCoater The MultiCoater is an option for the compact dust extractor (fil-
tering installation). The MultiCoaters works cyclically or in contin-
Notes
■ If the MultiCoater is configured for "Precoating" operating
mode during start-up, there is no sufficient preventive fire
protection compared to the "Inertization" operating mode due
to the reduced addition of dispensing material to the sepa-
rated dust.
■ If the user deviates from the parameters defined during
start-up without consulting the manufacturer, then the
user is solely responsible for the effectiveness of the
resulting preventive fire protection.
Magnetic flux density The magnetic flux density is maximum on the surface of the per-
manent magnets in the primary part. If the distance is 30 cm, the
measured value is less than 100 μT (micro tesla).
According to modern medical standards, values up to 100 μT
with a permanent load and a frequency of 50 Hz, are medically
harmless for persons in good health (DIN VDE 0848, Part 4).
Ferromagnetic attractive The permanent magnets create a magnetic field. The ferromag-
force netic attractive force is 1000 N.
The attractive force will act suddenly, and depends on the sur-
face and on the mass of the object concerned.
Hot components!
CAUTION
Burns!
Ø Keep switch cabinet closed.
Ø Before opening the switch cabinet: switch off the main
switch and secure against being switched back on. Wait for
the correct cooling phase (at least 5 minutes).
Machine versions complying For machine versions complying with NEC, the switch cabinet
with NEC doors as well as all other electrical switchboxes may not be
secured with safety switches.
These switch cabinet doors and switchboxes are labelled with
two warning signs (see "Warning signs at the machine",
pg. 1‐44).
Configurable control The configurable control interface (referred to as KSS in the fol-
interface lowing) is an option for the laser processing machine.
The user can configure automatic movement sequences themself
with this KSS, without having to add or replace hardware or soft-
ware components in the machine control system.
With the KSS, both fixtures supplied and configured by TRUMPF
can be actuated on the machine, as well as those supplied and
configured by the user.
Dangers during transport Clamping fixtures can weigh up to 450 kg, depending on the
and assembly design.
Clamping fixtures for IHU workpieces usually have swivel axes,
which have to be secured during transport or assembly.
Danger while teaching During the teaching process, the operator is in the machine's
work area.
A danger is posed to the operator by pneumatically moving fix-
ture parts when a program is being run in test mode.
Danger zone inside the If the doors of the safety cabin are closed, the safety circuit will

cooler must be switched off immediately.
■ If the process cooler is switched on and off via the machine's
power supply: switch off the MAIN SWITCH of the machine
or
■ If the process cooler has its own power supply: switch off the
MAIN SWITCH on the process cooler.
The laser cooler variant: If the machine is not equipped with its
own cooler, then the switch cabinets in the body of the machine
will be cooled via the laser cooler.
Teleservice activated!
WARNING
Injury and damage to property.
Ø Only persons trained by TRUMPF may take part in a Tele-
service session.
Ø If doubts arise regarding the qualifications of the persons
involved or if comprehension issues arise, TRUMPF can
refuse Teleservice or terminate the Teleservice session.
Exhaust air compact dust The user must comply with the national regulations for handling
extractor, regulation outside the exhaust air of the compact dust extractor and the dusts it
of Germany contains.
Exhaust air compact dust For the laser processing of stainless steel and materials from
extractor, regulation which harmful substances can arise as suspended dust, the
Germany exhaust air of the compact dust extractor must be conducted to
the outdoors.
In Germany, the limits for the return of cleaned air into the room
air are defined in "Technical Rules for Hazardous Materials
TRGS 560".
Note
For the laser processing of mild steel or aluminum, for example,
the cleaned air of the compact dust extractor may be fed back
into the room air.
Cleaning the machine The machine may only be cleaned with an industrial vacuum
cleaner which meets at least the standards for "dust-class M"
according to IEC/EN 60335-2-69.
Further Information The databases from GESTIS contain limit values for dust con-
centrations and notes about danger (hazardous substance infor-
mation system of the German Social Accident Insurance). The
databases are available via the Internet in German and English.
Note
If there is a danger of dangerous emissions, the user must carry
out measurements and implement safety measures.
Rotary indexing table, light By default, the loading & unloading area for the rotary indexing
grid and laser scanner table (option) is safeguarded by a vertical light grid, by a laser
scanner as well as with protective walls. The safeguarding of the
danger zone is effective in all of the control system's operating
modes.
■ The rotation of the rotary indexing table will only be enabled
if neither laser scanner registers any object within the pro-
tected field.
■ Interrupting a light grid will trigger a feed hold while the
rotary indexing table is moving.
■ If the laser scanner detects an object in the danger zone, a
feed hold will be triggered.
ACKNOWLEDGE DANGER
ZONE button
Escape door for machines In an emergency, the danger zone within the safety cabin can be
with a rotary indexing table exited via the service door or via the escape door on the oppo-
site side.
The working range inside the safety cabin is entered and exited
via the service door. The escape door is only to be opened in an
emergency, from inside. It is not an access door to the working
area.
Safety cabin For machines with a rotational changer: The machine is sup-
plied with a completely enclosed safety cabin with a roof and
access doors on the left and right. One of the doors is fitted with
a laser protection window. The safety cabin is designed for a
maximum laser power of 4000 W.
For machines with a rotary indexing table: The machine is
supplied with a completely enclosed safety cabin with a roof as
well as one access door and an escape door. The access door
is fitted with a laser protection window. The safety cabin is
designed for a maximum laser power of 4000 W.
The doors are electrically secured and monitored by the control
system. The laser beam is only ignited if the doors are closed. If
a door is opened during machining, then a feed hold will be trig-
gered.
Both opening a door as well as pressing the EMERGENCY
STOP push-button will immediately stop the movement of the
workpiece changer.
Do not access the roof of the safety cabin.
The access doors as well as the escape doors from the safety
cabin must be freely accessible from both sides and must not be

Key-operated switch In TEACHIN operating mode, the separate teach panel can be
TEACHIN used to manually program 3D workpieces and move NC axes.
The TEACHIN operating mode is activated or deactivated on the
control panel with the TEACHIN key switch.
In TEACHIN operating mode, the machine axes move at
reduced speed and only if the operator keeps at least one ena-
ble key constantly pressed. If no enable key is pressed then a
FEED HOLD will be applied.
Safety Integrated The machine is equipped with the control software Safety Inte-
grated by Siemens. The functions of this safety concept are
effective with open or closed safety devices (safety cabin, light
barrier, light grid, laser scanner, etc.) and during teaching. Safety
Integrated is effective in all control operating modes.
MobileControl App If the remote control of the machine is activated by the Mobile-
Control app (option), the following safety measures become
effective:
■ Operation by the control panel is disabled. A red/yellow
warning frame is shown on the control panel.
■ The Internet connection is limited to the local WLAN of the
machine.
■ The remote control is activated by a WPA key created
dynamically at the machine.
■ The mobile terminal cannot access the Internet while the
remote control is active.
■ The WLAN connection is terminated as soon as the remote
is disabled via the MobileControl app.
Suction system in the work The work area of the machine is vacuum-cleaned through the
area open surface of the scrap conveyor. The air which is suctioned
off is guided to the compact dust extractor through the 2 connec-
tion sockets and a piping system.
The extraction and filtration system (compact dust extractors)
provided by TRUMPF in combination with the machine is
designed in such a way that the aerosols and dust emitted are
efficiently separated if the machine is used as intended (refer to
the "Hazardous substances" section.
Laser status lamp The laser status lamp (orange) indicates that the laser device is
assigned to the machine or that laser radiation is escaping at the
processing optics.
Laser status lamps are part of the machine's safety equipment
and are monitored by the control. A faulty laser status lamp will
block the beam path to the machine, resulting in a FEED HOLD.
It will have to be replaced.
- Climbing on prohibited.
The user must take the following measures before the personnel
start working on the machine:
■ Train personnel appropriately.
■ Inform the personnel about the possible dangers and the
safety measures.
■ Keep personal protective gear ready.
■ As far as possible, ensure personnel wear protective gear
(e.g. gloves, safety shoes, hearing protection, safety
glasses...).
■ Define responsibilities for safety, operation, maintenance, set-
ting work and service.
■ Require that personnel read the technical documentation of
the machine. Recommendation: obtain written confirmation
from the personnel.
■ Inform the personnel about the measures for protection
against radiation:
− Instruct the personnel in operating processes of the laser.
− Use protection against radiation correctly, e.g. wear laser
safety glasses.
− Instruct the personnel about the accident prevention pro-
cedures.
− Explain the biological effects of laser radiation on eyes
and skin.
■ For fault diagnosis and error correction, a connection will be
made via Teleservice by TRUMPF between the machine and
Technical Service. When the machine is commissioned the
user will be informed about the sequence and possible risks
of the Teleservice. The user must provide safety instruction
to operators who are involved in the Teleservice.
Protection against radiation Only personnel trained and instructed in laser radiation and

Switch cabinet cooling The air conditioning unit sucks the warm air from the switch cab-
inet and blows cold air back into the switch cabinet. Cooling is
switched off while the switch cabinet doors are open.
Note
Damp rooms are not suitable for the operation of the control sys-
tems, mainly because contact corrosion can develop on contac-
tors and relay contacts, resulting in control system errors.
Note
The compact dust extractor may only be installed in the interior
space.
Regulation in Germany:
■ For the laser processing of stainless steel and materials from
which harmful substances can arise as suspended dust, the
exhaust air of the compact dust extractor must be conducted
to the outdoors.
− In Germany, the limits for the return of cleaned air into
the room air are defined in "Technical Rules for Hazard-
ous Materials TRGS 560".
■ For the laser processing of mild steel or aluminum, for exam-
ple, the cleaned air of the compact dust extractor may be fed
back into the room air.
Exhaust air system The exhaust air system beginning at the clear gas duct port of
the compact dust extractor must be installed by the customer.
The pipeline must be installed as follows:
■ Max. of two 90° tube bends (radius = diameter x 1.5).
■ Max. length: 10 m.
■ Tube diameter: at least 300 mm.
MultiCoater (option) The compact dust extractor may be optionally equipped with a
MultiCoater.

External laser device cooling circuit Tab. 2-9
Notes
■ If the machine does not have a machine cooler, the optical
components of the machine are cooled by means of the
process cooler for the laser device (chiller). This means that
the process cooler provided by the user or the in-house
water system must have a 4 KW higher cooling capacity than
a machine with a machine cooler.
■ For the required cooling capacity for process coolers with a
water-air cooling circuit, see: Required cooling capacity for
water-air cooling circuit.
Cooling water requirement The cooling water requirement for an external process cooler or
characteristic curve an in-house water system is dependent on the laser power and
the maximum supply temperature of the external cooling unit.
The characteristic curves indicate the minimum cooling water
requirement at maximum power input (service case), dependent
on the maximum supply temperature.
Note
The following characteristic curves are only valid for the laser
device TruDisk. This does not takes account of the 4 KW higher
cooling capacity for cooling the optical components of the
machine.
Calculating the minimum The required minimum differential pressure between the supply
differential pressure and return at the connection point is obtained from the supply
temperature and the flow rate calculated.
Notes
■ If the cooling capacity of the external cooling circuit is set too
low, the cooling unit's regulation reserve reduces. This could
result in frequent operational malfunctions of the laser device
due to excess temperature.
■ TRUMPF recommends incorporating a safety margin of
0.5 bar in the calculated minimum differential pressure for the
design of the hose cross sections and hose lengths.
Required cooling capacity The following cooling capacities are required for process coolers
for water-air cooling circuit with a water-air cooling circuit1:
Note
The required pump pressure at the connection point is calculated
from the total pressure loss: pressure loss at the connection
point as per the characteristic curve "Pressure difference" + pres-
sure loss from supply line = total pressure loss.
Note
The laser light cable is installed by Technical Service.
The laser light cable (LLK) is guided in a cable rack from the
installation site of the laser to the machine. If a standard cable
rack is installed, this belongs to the machine's scope of delivery.
Screens are integrated in the front side of the safety cabin for
the functions "Residual run time display" and "Work area moni-
toring". The monitors can be delivered as an option.
Alternatively, the user has the option to insert their own screens
in the recesses provided for this purpose. The screen for observ-
ing the work area is mounted and connected on the left and the
screen for displaying the residual run time on the right.
What does the customer If a customer's screen is to be installed, the user must mount
need to do? the screen in the safety cabin wall and connect it electrically
themselves.
Screen specification TRUMPF recommends installing screens with the following spec-
ification:
Mechanical interface The following mechanical interface is available for the screen in
the front side of the safety cabin:
Screen holder To fasten the screens in place, a screen holder, type VESA MIS-
F (600 mm x 200 mm) can, for example, be installed.
Cover for screen recess For the customer screen option, the recess for the screen in the
safety cabin is provided with a cover on delivery of the machine.

Cover attachment from inside Fig. 79719
2. Remove the cover for the screen recess at the front side of
the safety cabin.
What does the customer Professional gas installation is a basic prerequisite for smooth
need to do? commissioning and trouble-free operation of the installation. The
following chapter must therefore be passed along to the special-
ist company for industrial gases you have contracted with in a
timely manner in accordance with the planning aid.
Notes
■ Recommendation from TRUMPF: Contact your gas supplier
regarding the gas supply.
■ Installation must be performed by a qualified industrial gas
company. A specialized company certified by the DVGW
(German Technical and Scientific Association for Gas and
Water) or a gas and water fitter is not suitable.
■ The gas installation at the customer site must be laid up to
the connection points on the machine.
■ Observe applicable standards
■ Separate gas connections are required for the gas supply of
fixtures. It is not permitted to used the gas supply from the
machine.
Note
Compressed air cutting gas: see "Compressed air supply" sec-
tion.
Purity
Typical consumption during The cutting gas consumption depends on the nozzle diameter
high-pressure cutting and on the cutting gas pressure:
N2 high pressure
Minimum input pressure (required flow 27 bar
pressure at the connection point of the
machine)
Cutting gas pressure 20 bar
Nozzle diameter 2.3 mm
2 When using nitrogen with low purity, oxygen impurities of 100 ppm and
above can cause discoloration of the cutting edges during high-pres-
sure cutting. This can only be avoided by using nitrogen with a purity
of 5.0 or by a cutting gas supply from a gas tank (the nitrogen purity
in the gas tank is usually 5.0).
This symbol indicates the connection point for the cutting gas in
the installation plan.
The customer must provide the cutting gas supply lines up to the
connection point on the machine:
■ The supply lines must be installed up to the connection point
on the installation plan indicated by the symbol on the left.
■ Pipes should be used for the entire gas installation from the
gas cylinder or central gas tank to the connection point of
the machine.
■ The vaporizer must be designed to accommodate the maxi-
mum consumption of all connected machines. The line from
the vaporizer to the connection point must be kept as short
as possible.
■ Set up the external gas installation in such a way that the
supply lines to the connection point of the machine and the
connection point itself are unable to ice up.
■ As a general principle, a stopcock must be mounted before
each branch in a ring pipeline in order to make it possible to
shut down the each ring pipeline segment separately.
Note
The gas temperature must not exceed 50 °C. This is of
particular importance if the required gas pressure is generated
by means of pressure booster systems!
Pipes ■ Oil and grease-free lines made of special quality copper pip-
ing ("refrigerator quality", inert-soldered with simple forming
gas) are sufficient for the cutting gases.
■ Use Swagelok clamping ring screw fittings.
■ Secure sealing points with flat gaskets.
Notes
■ Teflon tape, liquid Teflon, sealing sprays, lubricants and lubri-
cating pastes must not be used.
■ Stainless steel pipes are not necessary.
■ Protect pipes against contamination during transport and stor-
age.

Cylinders or bundles ■ The supply of cutting gas with pressure reducers for cylin-
ders or bundles require increased handling, however, due to
Cylinder banks or cylinder ■ Switchover devices are required for uninterrupted operation
bundle banks with bottle or cylinder banks.
■ The switchover is performed manually or automatically.5
■ Cylinder banks or cylinder bundles are frequently installed at
some distance from the laser machine. For this reason, the
use of a tapping point pressure reducer close to the laser
system is recommended.
Note
The pressure must be monitored by installing the specified pres-
sure regulators on the supply unit. The pressure regulators must
be secured against the maximum input pressure (intrinsically
safe).
Gas tank ■ A tank system is appropriate for safe gas supply at a gas
consumption of at least about 200-400 m3/week.
■ The optimum tank size depends on the tapping quantity and
on the local conditions.
■ The customer should consult the gas supplier.
What does the customer Professional electrical installation is a basic prerequisite for
needs to do? smooth commissioning and trouble-free operation of the installa-
tion. The following chapter must therefore be passed along to
the specialist company for electrical installation you have con-
tracted with in a timely manner in accordance with the planning
aid.
Decentralized power supply In a standard case, the user has to install 3 individual electrical
connections for the laser processing machine:
■ For the basic machine.
■ For the laser device.
■ For the external laser process cooler.
Central power supply Optionally, the laser processing machine can be equipped with
a central power supply. All machine components, including the
the laser device and the external process cooler are then pow-
ered via a common electrical connection.
Notes
■ The tolerance range applies to the short-term supply fluctua-
tions. Impermissible voltage fluctuations endanger the fault-
less operation of the machine and reduce performance.
■ In the event of continuous impermissible fluctuations, e.g. a
network stabilizer or an undervoltage supply is recom-
mended.
■ The line tolerance must be determined if the nominal voltage
is 380 V or 415 V at 50 Hz.
■ No isolating transformer is required if the tolerance is
between 360 V and 440 V.
■ NEC: the specification complies with the standards of the
American National Standard (ANSI) C84.1-1989 Table 1,
"Voltage range A".

Fault current circuit breaker A fault current circuit breaker provides protection from fault cur-
(RCD) rents due to directly or indirectly touching live parts.
■ If a fault current circuit breaker is used to provide protection
from direct contact, an isolating transformer must be used.
This is because the leackage current resulting from the
design is >30 mA.
■ If a fault current circuit breaker is to be used to provide pro-
tection from indirect contact, this must be selected depend-
ing on the machine's leakage current.
Notes
■ Whether a fault current circuit breaker has to be used
depends upon the local electricity company.
■ The machine must be separated from the power supply by
an isolating transformer if the leakage current of the machine
is higher than the fault current set when using a fault current
circuit breaker (EN 50178, Point 5.2.11.1, VDE 0160).
■ On the line side, only fault current circuit breakers of type B
(sensitive to all types of fault current, EN 50178,
Point 5.2.11.2; VDE 0160) are approved to provide protection
against direct or indirect contact.
Power supply configurations The power supply for the connection is configured as a TN sys-
tem with grounded star point. The connecting cable has four
cores (L1, L2, L3 with clockwise phase rotation and PE).
With IT and TT line structures as well as asymmetrical lines (one
phase grounded - corner-grounded delta network), the machine
must be connected via an isolating transformer.
Note
A surge diverter is required if the machine is connected to an IT
system.
Isolating transformer The following requirements apply for the isolating transformer:
■ Construction service: at least 125 % of the maximum con-
nected load.
■ Power-on time: 100 %.
■ Short-circuit voltage: ≤2.4 %.
■ Winding structure (circuit): DYN5.
■ Secondary voltage:
− At 50 Hz: 400 V.
− At 60 Hz: 460 V.
■ Additional connections on the primary side for adjusting the
line voltage: +10 V, +20 V, –20 V, –10 V.
■ Recommendation: insert transformer with copper coil. Alumi-
num wound transformers are not recommended because of
their inherently higher impedance.
■ Registration for the corresponding country, e.g. CE marking
for Europe or UL for USA.
Note
The isolating transformer does not belong to the machine's
scope of delivery. It must be provided by the user.

Motion unit
The hydroforming package protects the motion unit from dirt and
wear. The following components belong to the hydroforming
package option:
■ Protective hoods for the motors of the X, B and C axes.
■ Metal fins for protecting the Y axis bellows.
Beam guidance
Optical components The laser beam is directed through the barrel to the deflection
mirror in the B/C gearbox and channeled to the processing
optics. Quartz lenses in the processing optics focus the beam
through the nozzle onto the workpiece.
The laser light is coupled with a laser light cable (LLK), coming
from the beam source, from above via the cable carrier into the
Z barrel in the collimation.
The collimation has a quartz lens. The beam diameter is
adjusted in the factory using this lens.
In addition to the beam source, the LLK, the collimation, as well
as the processing optics are among the optical components of
the machine. The laser light cable, collimation and optics form
an optical unit and depend on the beam quality.
Notes
■ The laser light cable and collimation may only be replaced
together. The replacement may only be performed by
TRUMPF service engineers. After replacement, a basic
adjustment of the beam is required.
Improper replacement will lead to the destruction of the
collimation and laser light cable!
■ Notice! The new generation of cutting optics for the TruLaser
Cell 8030 (L60) may not be used on the predecessor
machine TruLaser Cell 8030 (L45) or on a machine of the
TruLaser Cell 7000 series (L31).
The raw beam diameter is too large for the focusing lens
and will lead to the thermal destruction of the optics.
■ On the TruLaser Cell 8030 (L60) machine with a LLK diame-
ter of 100 μm, it is possible and permissible to use dynamic
cutting optics of the predecessor machine TruLaser Cell 8030
(L45) or the TruLaser Cell 7000 series (L31).
Deflection mirror in the B/C The deflection mirror in the B/C gearbox directs the laser beam
gearbox to the processing optics. The deflection mirror is air-cooled.
Option FocusLine: The deflection mirror is an adaptive mirror,
which controls the focal position with compressed air.

Sensor system The sensor system of the cutting optics features dedicated soft-
ware which is checked when the optics are set up and automati-
cally updated if required.
The software consists of two components: the bootloader to load
the software and the software program itself. The electronics of
the cutting optics use this software to communicate with the dis-
tance regulation (ControlLine) of the machine.
Magnetic coupling The processing optics are held by a magnetic coupling. The
magnetic coupling consists of an overload flange, mounted on
the barrel, and an overload plate at the processing optics. The
holding force is generated by permanent magnets. The overload
flange is the primary part (permanent magnet). The overload
plate is the anchor part.
In case of a collision of the processing optics with workpieces or
objects in the work area, the electrical monitoring circuit between
the primary part and the anchor part is interrupted; the process-
ing optics are released from the flange.
Note
The green LED on the magnetic coupling lights up when the
processing optics are docked correctly on the magnetic coupling.
Notes
■ Catch-ropes can be used in combination with a bellows.
■ The foam rubber in the yoke plate seals and protects against
dirt. If damaged, the foam rubber must be exchanged.
■ When exchanging the bellows, the two metal cable ties
(inside and out) for fastening the bellows must be
exchanged.

Overview of the safety cabin with a rotational changer Fig. 71420
The aerosols and dust emitted when laser cutting metal are
extracted from the working range of the machine and directed to
a suction and filtering system (compact dust extractor) via a pipe
system, where they are separated efficiently.
The work area of the machine is vacuum-cleaned through the
open surface of the scrap conveyor. The suctioned air is guided
to the compact dust extractor via 2 connection sockets and a
piping system.
When the exhaust system is in operation, there is underpressure
inside the safety cabin.
During machining, a cyclone arises around the workpiece and
the fixture. The airflow must be permitted to flow unimpeded so
that the work area can be vacuum-cleaned effectively. This is to
be observed in the constructive design of the fixtures and fixture
holders.

Set of drawings The clamping fixture's scope of delivery includes a set of draw-
ings in the device's terminal box:
■ Fixture with identification of the clamping units, clamping cyl-
inders and sensors (Bero) as well as the fixture dimensions.
■ Identification of the measuring points and fixture reference
point run on the workpiece changer.
■ Measurement data table: The measurement data table con-
tains the reference values determined during start-up of the
fixture, which establish the reference to the machine zero
point (G500).
■ If available: Fixture-specific transport regulation.
■ Optional documentation:
− Pneumatic schematic and electrical schematic.
− Layout, input and output addresses of the KSS.
− If required, fixture-specific transport regulation.
Fixture port The fixture is mounted on the workpiece changer at the prescri-
bed fixture place and is connected to the fixture interface pneu-
matically and electrically.
All actuators of the fixture, such as clamping devices, sensors or
positioner, are configured, controlled and operated via the config-
urable control interface.
The actuators are program-controlled opened and closed in auto-
matic mode. In setup mode, the clamps are operated via switch
elements or via manual functions.
Note
Fixture interface: See "Supplement to operator's manual", "Con-
figurable control interface (KSS)", chapter "Interface description".
Note
KSS configuration and operation: see "Supplement to operator's
manual", "Configurable control interface (KSS)".
Reference point run to the Every fixture has a mechanical, fixed zero point (B1) that is
machine zero point measured at the factory during start-up of the fixture and entered
in a measurement data table. The mechanical zero point may be
a measuring ball, a RPS bolt, a cross-hairs or another mechani-
cal component on the fixture.
The fixture zero point B1 always refers to the reference point A1
on the workpiece changer.
Notes
■ Do not change the mechanical zero point of the fixture.
■ Reference point run of the fixture, reference points, zero
points and measuring points (C and D): see Set of drawings
for the fixture, sheet 3.
■ Reference point run to reference point A1 on the workpiece
changer: see set of drawings for the fixture, sheet 3.
■ In the program, the fixture zero point B1 usually corresponds
to the programmed workpiece zero point.
■ Project-specific solutions may deviate from the default speci-
fications.
You can monitor the clamps for proper clamping at the display
on each of the clamps:
■ The clamp is clamped correctly when the display is extended
and the LED for the clamping cylinder lights up in green.
■ If the display is not extended, the clamp is either open or not
clamped correctly.
Note
Emergency triggering: In an emergency, the clamp can be
opened manually by pushing the display down on the clamp.
Swivel unit In the following example, two swivel units are mounted opposing
each other on the support frame of the clamping fixture.
The swivel unit swivels the swivel frame each by 180° with the
clamped workpiece during machining into the end position. The
swivel axis is actuated via the KSS.
The positioner as well as the clamping nests are firmly con-
nected to the swivel frame.
You can monitor the clamps for proper clamping at the display
on each of the clamps:
■ The clamp is clamped correctly when the display is extended
and the LED for the clamping cylinder lights up in green.
■ If the display is not extended, the clamp is either open or not
clamped correctly.
Emergency triggering: In an emergency, the clamp can be
opened manually by pushing the indicator down on the clamp.
Support unit The support unit consists of index pins and slats. For insertion of
the raw part into the clamping fixture, the workpiece is placed in
the correct position in the index pin.

2 Positioning bolt
Positioner Fig. 86284
Notes
■ The fork depends on the workpiece. The fork may also have
to be replaced when the workpiece is changed.
■ Run in the positioner again only after the separating cut at
the end of the processing. If the positioner is run in too early,
damage (deformation or breakage) to the workpiece can
result.

■ For processing with the solid-state laser: see "Technical infor-
mation on solid-state laser".
Optical laser cable The machine is shipped standard-equipped with a laser light
cable ((LLK) permanently installed between the laser device and
the machine.
The laser light is coupled to and routed in an optical fiber. The
optical fiber is a thin thread of silica glass.
Note
A renewed basic adjustment of the beam guidance is required
after the LLC has been replaced, which may not be performed
by anyone other than trained specialists.
Note
Laser device control interfaces: See "Interface description Tru-
Disk" manual.
Remote diagnostics The remote diagnostics for the laser device take place through
the remote diagnostics port on the machine.
Cooling system The laser device has an internal cooling circuit which is usually
connected to an external cooling unit or a domestic water instal-
lation.
14 The part precision that can be achieved depends, among other things,
on the type of workpiece, its pre-treatment, the sheet size, the material
and its position within the working area. The technical specifications
are based on different component variants, due to the modular pro-
gram of the TruLaser Cell. They depend on the options in use.

then user management by issuing passwords (standard) does
not work.
TRUMPF scope of delivery The scope of delivery of the Access Control Key System option
by TRUMPF includes the following components:
■ Interface adapter (analysis device) mounted in the machine's
control panel housing.
■ Reading device (key adapter) for RFID chips is mounted on
the control panel.
■ User management and assigning rights in the machine con-
trol.
Notes
■ The downloads are free of charge. Download under:
https://www.euchner.de/Service/Downloads
■ A commercially available USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 connection
line (up to max. 3 m) is required for connecting the EKS key
adapter via the USB interface. On the EKS side the line
requires a type B USB connector; for the USB interface a
type A connector.
Programming the RFID chips The Euchner software "EKM Light Version" or "EKM single-user
version" is used to program the RFID chips.
This software has a specific input dialog box for TRUMPF
machines.
Note
The software is only available from Euchner. First, a standard
version is installed for the user who must then establish contact
to receive the dialog specific to TRUMPF machines for writing
the RFID chips.
Please contact the following persons at Euchner.

Identification The user logs on at the start of the shift using the chips and
logs off again when finished by removing the chip from the read-
ing device. During login, the machine control saves the user
identification (user ID) in the message history (Diagnostics main
operation) as well as in the "user event logfile".
The personnel number programmed on the chip can be used by
the machine control and the operator to identify the different
users.
The machine control can evaluate the following user IDs: 1 to
65535.
User groups The machine control evaluates the following user groups:
■ "Production" user group (equivalent to Euchner authoriza-
tion 8).
■ "Standard" user group (equivalent to Euchner authoriza-
tion 7).
■ "Advanced" user group (equivalent to Euchner authoriza-
tion 5).
Programming authorization "0" is not permitted.
When the operator logs off (removes chip), the "Production" user
group is always active.
If no chip is inserted in the reading device, there is no user-spe-
cific evaluation. In this case, the "Production" user group is
active.
Note
For user rights, see: User group.

Loading place and In the machine control, a distinction is made between production
production place place, fixture place and loading place.
■ Production place: Those segments on the workpiece
changer at which the workpiece is loaded and processed are
referred to as "production place". A maximum of two fixture
places are assigned to every production place.
■ Loading place: The area in front of the workpiece changer
where the workpiece is set up (loaded or unloaded) is refer-
red to as "loading place". Every loading place is assigned to
a safety area.
Rotary indexing table For a machine with rotary indexing table there are two load-
loading places ing and unloading areas (loading place 21 and loading place 22).
The operator can optionally configure the loading and unloading
place. The following configurations are possible:
■ The workpiece is manually loaded on both loading places.
■ The workpiece is automatically loaded on both loading pla-
ces.
■ The one loading place is manually loaded and the other one
is automatically loaded.
■ It is loaded and unloaded, either manually or automatically,
onto the same loading place.

Button Description
Set the job at the start of the list.
Production plan A production plan includes jobs (NC programs for part process-
ing) that are processed in the order selected by the operator.
When doing this, only the released jobs will be produced.
The operator starts the production plan. Then; the individual jobs
are automatically called up one after the other and processed.
Parts are produced until the production plan has been gone
through or until the operator ends the production plan.
Production place Production place refers to the area on the machine where the
workpiece is produced. A number is assigned to every produc-
tion place in the machine control:
Conditions
■ The tooling status is valid and has been activated.
■ The configuration of the workpiece change has been created.
■ The program is stored in the internal management system.

Loading place Loading place refers to the area on the machine where the new
workpiece is loaded and the finished part is removed.
Before the production plan can be started, the loading place
must be configured and activated.
Notes
■ If there is no valid configuration for a workpiece change, the
production plan is not started.
To configure and activate the loading place, see "Configura-
tion" section: (see "Configuration", pg. 4‐139).
■ If different jobs are to be processed at a production place
(e.g. 2 different workpieces on 2 different fixtures), the opera-
tor acknowledges loading simultaneously for all workpieces
set up at this loading place.
Notes
■ For manual loading: whenever the LOADING ACKNOWL-
EDGMENT button flashes, the control is expecting a work-
piece change. Then, the operator acknowledges the loading
operation by pressing the button.
■ For automatic loading acknowledgment: the loading acknowl-
edgment is carried out by the external automation compo-
nent.
Notes
■ If no safe KSS movement is configured for the clamping fix-
ture, the fixtures also open at the start of the production plan
if the guard is open.
■ If a safe KSS movement is configured for the clamping fix-
ture, the guard must be closed first before the actuators of
the fixture can be moved.
■ Recommendation: When the production plan is started, no
workpiece has been loaded yet.
■ If the LOADING ACKNOWLEDGMENT button flashes, the
workpiece can be loaded.
■ The production plan is aborted by pressing the RESET but-
ton.
■ The workpiece status displayed must correspond to the work-
piece loaded.

Workpiece status The machine control manages the following workpiece statuses:
Notes
■ After starting the production plan, the operator must acknowl-
edge the workpiece status once. Only then can the automatic
run be started.
■ The processing program can only start if the workpiece at
the processing location has the "Raw part" status.
■ A workpiece status can only be changed and acknowledged
for the workpiece at the loading and unloading place. The
set status changes with the workpiece. The status can only
be checked for the processing location.
Error handling If the machine control identifies a faulty part, an error message
is output according to the selected strategy:
■ No reaction: No error message is to be output in the event of
a faulty part.
■ Acknowledge after every error: An error message is to be
output for every faulty part. The workpiece status must be
acknowledged.
■ Acknowledge after several errors: An error message is only
to be output when the defined number of faulty parts is
reached. The workpiece status must be acknowledged.
The troubleshooting strategy is defined in the configuration dialog
at "Missing part handling" (see "Configuration", pg. 4‐139).

Machining programs for 3D Machining programs that were created using the TruTops Cell
laser processing programming software are imported into the machine's control
and are usually executable and process-sure immediately,
depending on the complexity of the workpiece and the experi-
ence of the programmer. The NC program generated with Tru-
Tops Cell must be tested on the machine and, if need be, be
corrected by teaching with TruTops Cell Basic (option).
The corrections taught in this way are not lost. A taught or cor-
rected program can in turn be loaded into TruTops Cell and sub-
sequently edited.
Workpiece and contour The contour that is to be machined must be drawn or inscribed
on the surface of the workpiece so that it is clearly visible. It is a
good idea to use a template to do this. The accurate identifica-
tion of contour transitions (e.g. the transition of an arc into a
straight line) makes it easier to establish teach points and
increases production accuracy.
Function key Each function key is assigned one function. If the control issues
the enable, the function requested by the operator will be carried
out immediately.
The buttons with the blue LEDs show a status. The status can
be changed with the button or on the user interface in the >Pro-
gramming > Teaching menu.

Note
The interpolation type can be selected on both the teach panel
as well as on the user interface.
Teach points When teaching a path, individual path points are approached
with the machine axes. The paths between two path points are
interpolated by calculation. Here, different types of interpolation
can be selected.
The control calculates the contour path by recording individual
teach points (axis coordinates) in combination with the selected
interpolation type.
The start point for all interpolation types is the respectively cur-
rent axis position.
Note
Usually, teaching is done with the active kinematic transfor-
mation (synonymous with 5-axis transformation). The kine-
matic transformation must be activated manually.
Note
The interpolation type G01 is the default status. G01 are active
until another interpolation type is selected.

Reference optics The absolute position 0° for the B and C axes is referenced
when the machine is commissioned using the so-called reference
optics. Therefore, any further calibration of the B and C axes
must be carried out with the reference optics.
If only one set of processing optics is used on the machine,
these optics are the reference optics.
If several sets of processing optics are used on the machine,
any other mounted optics can be defined as the reference optics
if required, but not without an important reason.
Note
If new reference optics are defined using the wizard, the
tooling statuses of all other processing optics become inva-
lid. In such a case, the joint offset must be re-determined
for all other optics.
Media adapter The supply lines for the processing optics are connected to the
media adapter of the Z barrel.

Sensor
The processing optics are stuck on the B/C gear of the Z barrel
with a magnetic coupling and fastened with 3 knurled screws.
Conditions
■ The machine is ready for operation.
■ The setup state has been created.
Notes
■ As soon as the valid tooling status is activated, the additional
ADC axis of the optics references automatically.
■ If new optics are put into operation on the machine, for
which there is yet no valid tooling status, a new tooling sta-
tus must be created first.
■ Damaged or contaminated pole and contact surfaces on the
magnetic coupling lead to a malfunction.
■ Tooling status: (see "Managing the tooling status", pg. 4‐171)
The drive motors of the B and C axes are motors with absolute
encoders. These motors are referenced to the absolute position
0° during start-up. If this reference point run is lost, e. g. after a
collision, the NC axes must be referenced again.
The inclined position is checked and the C and B axes are refer-
enced manually at first.
Due to the imprecision of a manual reference point run, the B
and C axes must recalibrated afterward. (see "Calibrate the B
and C axes", pg. 5‐46)
Note
Both the manual reference point run as well as the exact calibra-
tion of the C and B axes must be carried out with the reference
optics. Reference optics

The setting work is usually carried out with a test sheet or a ref-
erence part. The test sheet is clamped in a holder. The holder is
mounted in the work area of the machine, preferably to the work-
piece changer.
This standard test sheet holder belongs to the scope of delivery
of the machine.
Note
The test sheet holder must be mounted axially parallel.
Note
Recommendation: To protect the holder, a sacrificial plate can be
clamped in: mild steel, max. 8.5 mm thick, 190 mm x 110 mm.
Basic variant scope of The scope of delivery of the Smart Optics Setup Basic option
delivery includes the following components:
■ The Smart Optics Setup station, consisting of a swivel arm
and test sheet holder, in which the test sheets for carrying
out setting work can be clamped.
■ "Measuring ball" setting device (material number 2248971)
for calibrating the sensor (option), see section "Calibrating
measuring equipment" Smart Optics Setup Station.
■ Three sets of sacrificial plates (2 sheets per set) for protect-
ing the test sheet holder from laser radiation.
Smart Optics Setup station The Smart Optics Setup station is a swivelable fixture (referred
to as the setting device in the following), which can alternatively
be used for setting work instead of the standard test sheet
holder (see "Test sheet holder", pg. 5‐14).
Both the setup position and the parking positions are monitored
by the machine control by touch switches.
■ The test sheet holder is swiveled into the setup position in
the working area. The swivel arm is locked into this position
with a toggle clamp.
■ In the parking position, the test sheet holder is swiveled out
of the working range and is held in the parking position with
a stop pin.
Note
If the setting device is in the setup position, rotation is not ena-
bled for the workpiece changer. The production plan or a proc-
essing program cannot be started.

Service program The utility program is started via the Wizard. The utility program
triggers a laser pulse.
Setting device The sensor body, and therefore the nozzle, are adjusted using a
setting device.
The sensor body is fastened to a slide with a path movement in
the X and Y directions of +1.0 mm each way. The sensor body
and slide are fixed with clamping screws. The sensor body and
nozzle are joined rigidly; the beam is centered to the nozzle cen-
ter by adjusting the sensor body.
Note
The protective cover can only be used for the new cutting optics
of the TruLaser Cell 8030 (L60). The protective cover cannot be
used for cutting optics of predecessor machines due to the form
fit between the bushing and the cutting insert.
1. Loosen the dial gauges and the adjusting screws until the
red marking on the screws is completely visible.
2. Loosen the knurled screws.
3. Carefully pull off the adjustment device.
4. If available, remount the protective cover for the cutting
insert.
The following four working steps are required for centering the
laser beam with respect to the nozzle:
■ Perform a reference shot to check the centering and to local-
ize the beam.
■ Correct the nozzle and carry out a test shot.
■ Carry out test shot with the C axis in 4 different positions.
■ Carry out test shot with the B axis in 3 different positions.
Conditions
■ Processing optics are ready for operation.
■ Clean, new standard nozzle, ∅ 2.3 mm.
■ Clean, new standard nozzle ∅ 1.4 mm.
■ Laser device is ready for operation and assigned to the

Notes
■ For each test shot, move the adhesive strip or use a new
adhesive strip.
■ The first test shot is usually carried out with a nozzle having
a nozzle diameter of 2.3 mm.
■ Change the nozzle after adjusting the laser beam for the first
time. The smaller the nozzle diameter, the more exactly the
beam can be adjusted to the nozzle orifice.
Recommendation: For each additional test shot, use a nozzle
with a nozzle diameter of 1.4 mm or smaller.

device", pg. 5‐38)
27. If available, remount the protective sleeve.
28. Then readjust the focal position. (see "Determining and set-
ting the focal position", pg. 5‐41)
Focal position The focal position is the vertical position of the focus (also called
focus point) with respect to the sheet surface. The exact position
of the focus is essential for good cutting results.
Machines without FocusLine For machines without FocusLine, the exact focal position is
determined by means of cutting tests and is fixed manually
before machining. It is not possible to adjust the focal position
during machining (see: section "Setting the focal position without
FocusLine").
The parameter "FocusLine setting value" in the laser technology
table has no effect in this case.
Note
The following description for how to determine the focal
position only applies to machines with FocusLine.
Focus search The service program is started via the Wizard. It cuts a refer-
ence part with a comb structure with 20 slats. The individual
Conditions
■ Processing optics are ready for operation.
■ Laser device is ready for operation and assigned to the
machine.
■ The nozzle is centered to the beam.
■ Clean, new standard nozzle, ∅ 2.3 mm.
Notes
■ When using the Smart Optics Setup station: At the start of
the utility program, the axes position themselves automati-
cally from the current axis position to the respective start
position for the laser processing.
■ The dynamic cutting optics moves 10 mm away from the
sheet surface at the time of program start.
■ If the comb structure is not cut out completely, reduce the
"Increment" parameter.
■ The focus search is carried out with a standard nozzle.

Joint offset The offset value for the X, Y and Z axes between the beam cen-
ter of the pivot of the B/C angular gear and the beam center of
the focus point (Tool Center Point) is referred to as the joint off-
set.
The joint offset of the Z axis is calculated from the tool length
plus 1 mm nozzle distance. The joint offset of the Z axis corre-
sponds to the swivel radius of the optics.
Using the service program, the joint offset of the Z axis (same
thing as the tool length) is determined. The service program is
started via the Wizard.
A measuring point is recorded to the right and left of the sheet
surface. The control calculates the tool length from these meas-
ured values and the sheet thickness entered in the dialog.
Notice! If an incorrect value is entered in the dialog for the
sheet thickness, the calculated tool length will be incorrect!

After the activation, the actual joint offset values are determined
by calibration. After calibration, the sensor is ready for operation.
Instead of the processing optics, the sensor is installed on the B/
C gearbox.
Note
A NC program can be started in the test mode using the sensor.
Measuring ball fixture The measuring ball fixture (option) is used to calibrate the
sensor as an alternative if no Smart Optics Setup station (option)
is mounted on the machine Smart Optics Setup Station.
The measuring ball fixture is positioned in the working range on
the workpiece changer in such a way that no collision with the
fixture is possible during calibration.
Smart Optics Setup Station The Smart Optics Setup function is a machine option. It can be
used in combination with the "measuring ball" setting device to
calibrate the sensor.

"Smart Optics Setup", pg. 5‐17).
Condition
■ The machine is ready for operation.
Notes
■ The last determined geometric data is kept in case of a pro-
gram interruption.
■ If the measuring ball and the measuring probe are not cor-
rectly screwed in, the measurement can be faulty.
■ To prevent a collision, a clearance of about 50 mm around
the measuring ball has to be maintained during the calibra-
tion.

9.1 Overview
The following two variants are available for cooling the optical
components of the LLK machine, collimator and cutting optics,
as well as for cooling the switch cabinet:
■ Cooling by machine cooler (optional): The machine has
an internal machine cooler which cools the optical compo-
nents of the machine as well as the switch cabinet.
■ Cooling by external laser cooling circuit (chiller): In the
standard variant, the cooling circuit of the machine is con-
nected to the external cooling circuit of the laser device. In
this case, the water stopcocks in the laser device as well as
beneath the instrument panel on the machine, must be open
while the machine is operating. In the event of an error, the
status of the shut-off valve must be checked.
In the following sections, the maintenance work for the cooling
circuit of the machine (machine cooler) will be described.
Laser device maintenance work: see section "TruDisk".
Maintenance of the external cooling circuit of the laser device:
see section "Process cooler for TruDisk".
Notes
■ No antifreeze agent is required.
■ Replace all of the water filters which are part of the cleaned
cooling circuit after each replacement of the cooling water.
■ Always seal the water container tightly to ensure that no soil-
ing gets into the water tank and that the water does not
evaporate.
■ If oil or coolant is leaking, request a service call.
Cooling water specification The cooling system may only be filled with demineralized or
deionized water that meets the following requirements.
Note
The cooling water must be replaced when the conductivity limits
have been exceeded.
Note
Refer to the machine's spare parts catalog for the Easy Kit mate-
rial numbers (country-specific).
Cooling water requirements The following Easy Kits and the following water volumes are
for the machine's cooling required for cooling water replacement, depending on the config-
circuit uration of the machine and the laser power:
Note
Cooling water requirement and Easy Kit for the cooling circuits of
the laser and chiller: see the section "TruDisk and process
cooler for TruDisk" .
Note:
This maintenance work is only relevant, if the machine's compo-
nents are cooled via the laser cooler: In this case, the machine
will not have its own cooler.
After replacing the cooling water in the laser device as well as in
its process cooler, the system checks whether the flow controller
in the machine's cooling circuit is still properly set.
Condition
■ Laser device is ready for operation and assigned to the
machine.

10.1 Overview
General guidelines Utmost cleanliness and the greatest care must be ensured when
handling optical components. A clean environment, a clean work
station, and clean additional equipment are absolutely essential.
■ All work involving the removal, installation and cleaning of
optical components, as well as the adjustment of the laser
beam after cleaning, if necessary, may only be carried out by
trained personnel.
■ Optical components should be cleaned in clean rooms and
not in the vicinity of the machine itself.
■ Cover all exposed maintenance points on the machine's
beam guidance or its optics with optical adhesive tape.
■ Only the auxiliary tools included in the cleaning set may be
used.
■ Only touch the lenses and mirror wearing disposable gloves;
use cushioned tweezers if necessary.
■ Touch the lenses only on their circumference! Do not touch
the surface of the lens.
■ The optical surfaces must remain free of oil, grease and
dust.
■ Do not clean the optics with compressed air. This will con-
taminate the optical components with dirt particles.
■ Do not adjust the marked reference screws.

nical Service.
Note
The cooling temperature is factory set and may not be
changed.
12.1 Overview
Residual dust If the machine is used as intended, the filtered dust can be sup-
plied for metal recycling. It does not have to be disposed of as
special waste. The relevant national and local regulations must
be observed.
Dust identification According to German national legal provisions, the dust container
or fine dust bag must be marked as follows for disposal:
Identification
Dust from steel machining LAGA key 35101 (ferrous dust without harmful impurities)
or
EAK code 120102 (particles containing iron); EAK group: waste from
mechanical shaping (including welding and cutting)
Dust from aluminum machining LAGA code 35304 (aluminum waste)
or
EAK code 120103 (chips and cuttings containing metals other than iron);
EAK group: waste from mechanical shaping (welding, cutting, among oth-
ers)
Dust identification Tab. 6-7
A fine dust bag that can be closed can be inserted in the dust
container. The dust that accumulates is collected in this special
fine dust bag (TRUMPF material number 1831493) and disposed
of. The sack for fine dust has a maximum capacity of 30 kg.
Notes
■ Between the fine dust sack and the dust container, there is a
minimal gap to equalize the pressure. It is possible that small
amounts of dust fall through this gap into the container. If
there is dust in the container, empty it.
■ Misshapen dust containers must be replaced. The container
must be close to the dust discharge.
Note:
This maintenance work is valid for the compact dust extrac-
tor with a level sensor (option).
The compact dust extractor is equipped with a level sensor at its
closing flap. In this case the control system will report when the
dust container has reached the maximum level and has to be
emptied.
The dust container is located below the dust discharge unit. The
fine dust sack or dust container can be replaced with the com-
pact dust extractor switched on.
Notes
■ Between the fine dust sack and the dust container, there is a
minimal gap to equalize the pressure. It is possible that small
Note
The cartridge weighs 15 kg.
Conditions
■ MAIN SWITCH Basic machine is switched on.
■ The pre-coating procedure is not active; the signal light is not
lit.
Notes
■ The maximum permissible filling height for the dispens-
ing material is the lower edge of the grid insert.
■ A leaky cover seal must be replaced:
Note
Dust accumulation on the cover or inside the MultiCoater is an
indication that the parameterization of the pre-coating procedure
is not correct. In this case, inform the manufacturer.
Notes
■ The scrap container is not supplied as part of the machine.
■ Empty the scrap container regularly.

Ø Use a grease gun to fill the grease nipple until grease oozes
out.
1 Lubricant container
Scrap conveyor lubricant container Fig. 74472
Notes
■ Always use the same oil.
■ After approx. 4 weeks, depending on the operating hours,
the lubricant container should be empty. Should this not be
the case, it can be an indication that the conveyor belt is not
being adequately lubricated.
Note
Two people are needed to remove the hood.
Checking the chain tension 1. Switch off the electrical supply to the scrap conveyor by turn-
ing the key switch on the device box to its central position.
2. Undo the fixing screws on the hood. Lift off the hood working
together with someone else.
3. Check the sag of the chain with a bar or ruler.
Notes
■ Make sure that no dust is stirred up. Use an industrial vac-
uum cleaner with activated carbon filter.
■ The cleaning pusher dog belongs to the accessories for the
scrap conveyor.
■ If the cleaning pusher dog is not removed after cleaning, this
will lead to the polyester urethane strip wearing very quickly.
Installing the cleaning 1. Acknowledge the danger zone and close the access door.
carrier 2. Start and stop the waste conveyor belt in setup mode, as
soon as the plate marked in red on the conveyor belt's upper
run is visible in the conveyor's feed area.
3. Remove the fixing screws in the area marked in red.
4. Screw the cleaning carrier between the red and black bars.
Starting the cleaning cycle 5. Acknowledge the danger zone and close the access door.
6. Start the waste conveyor belt in setup mode.
Waste parts and dust in the lower run are ejected via the
discharge hopper.
7. After 2 to 3 loops, stop the conveyor belt so that the
cleaning pusher dog can be removed again.
8. Disassemble the cleaning carrier.
9. Screw the black bar back onto the conveyor belt.
10. Empty the scrap container and clean it.

All copper parts on the fixture are wear parts. They protect the
fixture against slag and damage by the laser beam.
Notes
■ Do not damage the protective plates when cleaning. Grooves
promote slag build-up.
■ A geometry deviation > 1 mm on the finished part can be an
indication of wear on the functional surfaces on the fork.

15.1 Overview
Cooling water additives The cooling water additives are supplied in bottles (Easy Kit).
The apportionment per bottle corresponds to the amount of cool-
ing water of respective cooling circuit. One Easy Kit is required
for each water change. Each Easy Kit contains one bottle with
anticorrosive agent (yellow) and one bottle with cleaning biocide
(red).

Notes
■ The degree of contamination of the filter mat(s) depends on
the ambient conditions. The filter mat might have to be
replaced at shorter intervals.
■ If the laser device and/or process cooler have their own main
switches, these main switches must be additionally switched
on and off.
Note
Generally, little water is lost from the closed cooling circuit, as
long as the water tank has been closed properly. If the cooling
circuit loses water within a short period of time, then the cause
must be found.
Note
If the laser device and/or process cooler have their own main
switches, these main switches must be additionally switched on
and off.
Condition
■ Laser device is ready for operation and assigned to the
machine.
Note
Cooling water must circulate during the cleaning cycle.
4. Switch the machine and drives back on. Production can con-
tinue during the cleaning cycle.
Note
The water container, pump and pipelines must be drained.
Flushing the cooling circuit 10. Fill the tank up to about 60% with fresh, demineralized water.
11. Close the water tank.
12. Switch the machine back on again.
Measure conductivity 18. After the third rinse cycle, measure the conductivity of the
water.
19. If the conductivity of the water is less than or equal to 20 µS/
cm, completely fill the tank and add an anticorrosive agent
Water Care-Copper.
or
Ø If the conductivity of the water is greater than 20 µS/cm:
rinse the cooling circuit. Afterwards, fill with fresh water,
flush for approx. 10 minutes and measure the conductiv-
ity again.
20. After adding the anticorrosive agent wait for about 10
minutes.
21. Afterwards, measure the conductivity of the water again. If
the conductivity is still more than 20 µS/cm, the complete
cooling water replacement must be repeated.
The cooling water replacement is completed when the con-
ductivity of the water does not exceed 20 µS/cm.
22. After completing the cooling water replacement, close the
water tank with the tank cap.
23. After completing the cooling water replacement, clean the
condenser with an industrial vacuum cleaner.
Attention: No dirt may fall into the tank in the process!
24. Clean the interior space of the process cooler with a cloth.
25. Check the water pressure at the pressure gauge. The set
pressure is 4 bar.
If the pressure is greater than 4 bar, check the water micro-
filter in the laser device for contamination.
26. After completing all maintenance work, close the process
cooler again.
27. Document the cooling water replacement on the process
cooler.
Note
The noise measurement record contains two measurements:
The noise measurement was carried out once with and once
without the soundproofing cover for the compact dust
extractor.
The "Noise level" test report contains the results for the compo-
nent with the highest noise levels - the basic machine. The max-
imum values determined also apply for all variants of automated
machines. On average, the contribution of the automation parts
to the noise level for the loudest and the typical operating mode
can be neglected.
