Machine damage if you violate these regulations

If you violate the following regulations, your machine may get damaged and / or cause damage in the surrounding area(s).

  • Thoroughly follow all instructions and information in this section.

Intended use

The machine and the manufacturing softwareClosed Term for the software package consisting of DentalCAM and DentalCNC. have been designed for the commercial machining of dental objects by specially trained persons. The processed objects require additional work before their use on patients.

  • Only operate the machine with original equipment from vhf. If you use non-authorized equipment, the safety of the machine can not be ensured.
  • Only execute jobs that are processed wet, when you have an operational vhf wet grinding module installed.
  • Do not modify the machine or remove the machine housing.

Controlling the machine through software

You control the machine through specially designed applications which are supplied with the machine.

Maintenance and cleaning

Maintenance and cleaning is part of standard machine usage.

  • Clean and maintain the machine as required. Only then can the machine reach a long service life.
  • Only perform maintenance tasks that are described in the operating instructions for the machine.

Spindle

The spindle of your machine is a high-precision instrument.

  • Do not use any tools with high imbalance at high rotational speeds. Such an imbalance puts a great strain on the spindle’s ball bearings, which can damage the ball bearings.
  • When working in the working chamber, do not apply manual pressure against the spindle.

Unattended operation

If the machine runs unattended, the risk of material damage is increased.

  • Only allow unattended operation of the machine to occur if the following conditions are met:
  • The national and local laws allow it.
  • The working chamber of the machine is completely clean.
  • Unauthorized users cannot access the machine.
  • The room in which the machine is located has an automatic fire detection system.

  • Ensure that all conditions set forth in the chapter are met during the entire transport and / or storage period Technical data.

NOTICE

Short-circuit hazard when the machine is too cold

If the machine is transported from a cold environment into a warmer environment, a short circuit may occur caused by condensate.

  • Before switching on the machine after transportation, ensure the following:
  • The ambient air has the allowed temperature.
  • The machine has the same temperature as the ambient air. This will take at least 48 hours.
  • The machine is completely dry.

Preparing for transportation or storage

  1. Remove all blanks from the working chamber.
  2. Remove all items from the blank magazineClosed Part of the blank changer in which you store the blanks for automatic loading..
  3. If the machine was used for wet machining:
    1. Rinse the cooling liquid system.
    2. Disassemble the wet grinding module as described in the module’s operating instructions.
  4. Clean the working chamber. Ensure that the working chamber is completely dry.
  5. Clean the blank magazineClosed Part of the blank changer in which you store the blanks for automatic loading..
  6. Install the transport lock. For this, follow the corresponding steps on the attachment.
  7. Ensure that the machine housing is completely closed.
  8. Switch off the machine via the main power switch.
  9. Disassemble the machine components by following the installation instructions in reverse order.
  10. In case of overseas transport, take proper measures against corrosion.

Packing the machine

To repack the machine after preparing its transportation or storage, the following steps are necessary:

  1. If possible, use the original packaging. If the original packaging is not available, use a packaging of similar size and quality.
