Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 7/36 A Introduction A 6. Work station safety To ensure security and productivity, read this manual before starting-up the equipment. • This marking equipment is designed to function at a room temperature between 5 0C (41 0F) to 45 0C (113 0F). • Do not use this marking equipment in an explosive environment. • Grounding must be done according to the regulations in effect to ensure the safety of the personnel. The connection to the single phase power supply is made with a standard, 3 pin plug with grounding. It must be equipped with an adequately calibrated 30 mA differential cut-off and protection device. • This marking equipment is not designed to operate in damp premises. • During marking, do not place fingers or objects in the area reserved for stylus movement. Keep hands away from the marking zone. Disregard for this recommendation may result in the operator being lightly pinched by the point of the stylus. • Depending on the application (tooling or heavy parts), it is recommended to wear safety shoes and work gloves. • Do not remove the power supply cover: electrocution risk. • In case of a long marking cycle or fast pace, the stylus’ temperature can reach 100 0C (212 0F). Beyond this temperature, the system is in security mode. Use a cooling system in a high temperature environment. • The air exhaust from the stylus can project metal dust or chips, if necessary wear safety glasses (in the event of the stylus cooling by compressed air). At the time of disposal, wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended to dismantle the mechanical elements of the machine. Some guiding elements (pinions, bearings, bars) are dismantled while hot and may release toxic fumes. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 8/36 A Introduction A 7. Warranty conditions and operating instructions This equipment is designed to mark material using Pro-Pen electromagnetic styli only. Any other use, or the use of styli other than those provided by Pro-Pen is not recommended. Pro-Pen will not be held responsible for the results. • The compressed air system must meet all standards (in the event of the stylus cooling by compressed air). • Never lubricate any part of the stylus or carriage guide bars. Pro-Pen will not be held responsible for injuries resulting from disregard for the above operating instructions or other general safety rules applicable to the use of this equipment. Furthermore, disregard for the instructions will void the warranty. When marking or doing test marking, the stylus must always have a part under it with which to make contact. If it strikes only air, these are the risks: • mechanical deterioration of moving parts • void of the manufacturer’s guarantee For more information, please refer to the warranty details delivered with the machine. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 9/36 B Operating instructions for the machine B 1. Description of the machine The P5000 EM is a digitally controlled micro-percussion marking machine. The marking head is attached to a column stand with a Z axis. The Z axis is adjusted manually using the crank handle and the ruler along the frame for positioning. This machine works by moving the stylus along the X and Y axes of a grid. The control electronics and the screen are integrated. This combination of technologies allows for rapid marking of alphanumeric characters and logos. The LCD screen is located on the front of the machine. The same keyboard used for a PC connects to the top of the marking head. As an option, a PC linked to the control board by an RS232 connection, can be used to manage marking thanks to the program developed in a Windows® environment. 1 2 3 4 6 5 1 : Z axis crank handle 2 : Ruler 3 : Marking head 4 : LCD screen 5 : Electromagnetic stylus 6 : CAN plug Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 10/36 A Operating instructions for the machine B 2.

Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 18/36 D Installation D 1. Installation Unpack the machine and install it at the work station. The machine must be installed in a workspace allowing the operator easy access to the adjustment handle for the Z-axis and clear visibility of the marking area where the stylus is moving. The marking area must be easily accessible. It is possible to counter-sink the table of the machine into the work table in order to prevent it tipping if too much force is applied to the vertical adjustment handle. See the table drawings for the dimension of the required rectangular cut-out. 2. Connections
Safety precautions The different elements of the equipment must be connected with the power off. The power supply should be connected last.
View of connectors To start up the machine, 4 connections are necessary: 1 1 3 2 4 1 : 1 bridged male SubD9 connector, for the reset function 2 : Compressed air (in the event of the stylus cooling by compressed air) 3 : Keyboard 4 : Power supply Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 19/36 A Installation D
Keyboard connection Connect the keyboard connector socket to the machine. There is a female connector, type DIN, on the electronics board.
Compressed air connection (in the event of the stylus cooling by compressed air) The ideal air pressure is 4 Bar (58.015 PSI) - 6 Bar (87.023 PSI). Foresee an air inlet pipe, 6 mm (0.236 in) diameter for the pneumatic cooling of the stylus. (instant connector) • The compressed air system must meet all standards.
Power supply connection This machine comes equipped with an SMPS (switch mode power supply). No power supply voltage adjustment is necessary. However, if the machine doesn’t start (screen off, power supply ventilator not running...): • Check that the power cord is correctly plugged in to both the machine and the power supply. • Check that the switch is in the "I" position (On). • Check the condition of the fuse. - Unplug the power supply cord. Put the On/Off switch in the "O" (Off) position. - Remove the fuse carrier (1) located below the power filter. - If necessary, replace the fuse (2) with a new one (4 A TT) and plug the machine back in. 1 2 1 : Fuse carrier 2 : Fuse Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 20/36 A Installation D
Grounding connection The marking equipment must be grounded in order to provide: - a safety feature for personnel - a set electrical potential which serves as a reference - a means of protection against radiated parasites High quality grounding is necessary on-site. If this is not the case, put in place grounding specifically for the equipment. 3. Coordinate system The coordinate system used in our machines is shown in following diagram. 1 : Axis origin 2 : X axis 3 : Y axis 4 : Z axis 5 : Column 6 : Marking zone • X axis: horizontal axis going from left to right • Y axis: horizontal axis going from the column to the operator • Z axis: vertical axis When a marking cycle is launched, the stylus always begins at the origin point and returns to the origin at the end of the cycle. The coordinates are given as an absolute value in relation to this point. The Z axis is the vertical position. This axis is used to manually adjust the height of the stylus for marking parts of different sizes. A vertical positioning indicator can be found on the right side of the machine. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 21/36 A Installation D 4. Hold the part to be marked Situation 1 Used with Pro-Pen plate-holder (optional) To mark plates or small parts with a thickness of less than 2 mm (0.079 in), use the plate holder to position the parts and prevent them from vibrating when the stylus taps. Situation 2 No plate-holder used To mark small or large parts, create the necessary tooling to position and clamp the parts under the machine. If the part is flexible, this tooling must provide firm support under the part to be marked. It must be held on the worktable using the three T grooves. The position of the marking zone with relation to the T grooves is indicated on the dimensional drawing of the worktable. A poorly clamped piece can generate high sound levels, thus becoming harmful after long periods. 5. Adjusting the height of the stylus Determining the optimum operating distance of the stylus according to the part to be marked. This distance is between 1 mm (0.039 in) and 5 mm (0.197 in). Using feeler gauges, position the point of the stylus 4 mm (0.157 in) above the part to be marked. Execute a marking. The whole marking line should be legible. Depending on the results, increase or decrease the distance between the stylus and the marking surface. • If a stylus is set too high, it doesn’t mark because the point doesn’t touch the plate consistently while tracing the characters. • If the stylus is set too low, it doesn’t mark because it cannot vibrate. The point withdraws inside the stylus and remains in permanent contact with the plate. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 22/36 A Installation D 6. Definition of operating distances of a stylus Max. distance Maximum adjustment distance DM Carry out a series of markings while progressively lowering the head until a uniform marking is obtained. With the help of feeler gauges, measure the distance between the point of the stylus at rest and the marked surface. Make a note of this distance. Min. distance Minimum adjustment distance Dm Lower the head until the stylus is barely touching the part to be marked. Raise the head and set the distance from the point of the stylus to the surface to be marked at Do (optimal distance), between 0.5 mm (0.02 in) and 1 mm (0.039 in). Amplitude Amplitude of a stylus A Subtract the min. distance (Dm) from the max. distance (DM) to obtain the operating amplitude of the stylus. This distance corresponds to its operating range, or its capacity to absorb variations in flatness. Reference distance Optimum adjustment distance Do Take the average of the DM and Dm. Position the stylus at this distance (Do). The max. distance (DM) and min. distance (Dm) may vary slightly from one stylus to another (production tolerances for stylus components, pressure and compressed air flow through the system). To mark curved parts using the maximum amplitude (A), set the stylus at the minimum distance (Dm) above the highest point of the part. 7. Using the P05 program Refer to the user manual for the P05 program. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 23/36 E Marking depth E 1. Factors influencing marking depth The principle factors are: • choosing the stylus • distance between the stylus and the part • marking force • choosing the marking speed To avoid creating stress on fragile parts, choose the following marking parameters: • stylus EM0/C is the preferable choice • choose a point with the largest possible radius • select marking force 25% for the marking file For very fragile parts, validate marking with mechanical resistance tests.
Choosing the stylus 2 electromagnetic styli of different powers are available: EM0/C - EM1/C. The force varies according to the diameter of the tip of the point. The points come sharpened to a radius of 0.2 mm (0.008 in). Depending on the need, points can be sharpened to different radii ranging from 0.1 mm (0.004 in) to 0.5 mm (0.02 in). A EM1/C stylus with a point radius sharpened to 0.2 mm (0.008 in) comes standard with the machine. This point is suitable for most common marking needs. A EM0/C stylus is available upon request.

Distance between the stylus and the part The optimum distance (Do) of the stylus in relation to the surface to be marked decreases as the marking force decreases. Using a stylus which is positioned too low, or which is too powerful in relation to the hardness of the material, will result in distorted characters. If the stylus is set too high, the marking will be lighter but there will be portions of the characters marked which will be missing. In this case, choose a less powerful stylus. The max. distance (DM) and min. distance (Dm) may vary slightly from one stylus to another (production tolerances for stylus components, pressure and compressed air flow through the system). To mark curved parts using the maximum amplitude (A), set the stylus at the minimum distance (Dm) above the highest point of the part. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 26/36 A Marking depth E
Marking force The width and depth of the marked line varies with the defined value. The higher the force, the deeper the mark. This value is expressed as a percent.
Choosing the marking speed There are 10 speeds: The choice of speeds influences the marking quality. Marking speed Result Speed Marking cycle 1 to 3 Very high quality Slow Long 4 to 7 High quality Fast Standard 8 to 10 Average quality Very fast Short 2. Marking depth A metallographic test is performed to measure marking depth. This process is used to dissuade attempts to falsify the marking. P1 = depth of marking P2 = depth of penetration P3 = depth of warping 1 : Solid material 2 : Thin sheet metal 3 : Embossing Different definitions concerning marking depth Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 27/36 F Preventive maintenance F The maintenance operations listed here are intended as a guideline, and should be implemented upon reception of the material. In a highly polluted environment, these operations may need to be performed more frequently. Unplug the power supply plug before beginning any cleaning or maintenance operation. This maintenance list was established based on a marking frequency of: • 520 000 cycles per year (7 800 000 characters per year) • 15 characters 3 mm (0.118 in) high per cycle • 8 continuous working hours on steel strength 50 DaN/mm2 (72518.869 lb/in2) 1. Every week • Clean the guide bars inside the marking head with a dry cloth (no solvent, oil, or grease). 1 • To have access to the point, manually unscrew the stylus nose. Remove the point. • Check the condition of the stylus, then clean it thoroughly. • Clean the point with a dry cloth. 1 : X carriage guide bars 2 : Y carriage guide bars 3 : Stylus nose 2 3 2. Every three months • Have the stylus serviced by Pro-Pen. Check the belt tension. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 28/36 A Preventive maintenance F 3. Every two years Have the marking head serviced by Pro-Pen. This operation includes: • complete dismantling of the machine • cleaning of the mechanical elements • standard replacement of X and Y carriages • replacement of the guide bars and belts • verification of the condition of X and Y motors and belts • reassembly and adjustment of mechanical elements • debugging of the head in an enclosure • marking tests Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 29/36 G General maintenance G 1. General information Maintenance consists of regular monitoring of marking quality. Intensive use of the equipment can impact the guiding systems of the carriage or the stylus point, and may result in distortion of the characters. Contact your distributor to schedule an appointment for servicing. This "tune-up" does not take a long time. Check the compressed air system regularly. Based on the level of soiling, establish a schedule for cleaning or replacement. Never lubricate any part of the stylus or carriage guide bars. • Never lubricate any elements of the stylus. • Never use pliers to tighten the stylus. • Never lubricate any element of the marking head. Unplug the power supply plug before beginning any cleaning or maintenance operation. 2. Detaching the point of the stylus for sharpening The tip of the point is made from a grade of carbide suitable for creating impacts. The point should be rounded in order to hold up well on hard material. To have access to the point, manually unscrew the stylus nose. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 30/36 General maintenance G A 3. Changing the fuse Disassemble the power filter located on the side of the machine. Use a screwdriver to change the fuse. Remove the fuse from its housing and replace it with the new one. Choosing the fuse Delay fuse Nominal voltage Frequency 4 A TT 250 V AC 50 - 60 Hz 1 1 : Fuse carrier 2 : Filter 2 4. Cleaning the sensors The machine is equipped with 2 optoelectronic fork sensors which detect the end of travel in X and Y and indicate the presence of the 2 carriages at the origin. Certain exterior elements (chips, shavings...) can get stuck between the sensors and disrupt their functioning: the setting of the origin will not be accurate. To remove these foreign objects, use an air blower to direct a blast of air between the sensors. 1 2 1 : Y Sensor 2 : X Sensor Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 31/36 H Resolution of the problems H 1. Possible marking problems and problem resolution Situation Description Diagnosis Action 1 The stylus is not vibrating sufficiently and the part is not marked. The stylus is too close to the surface to be marked. Raise the marking head, then try marking again. 2 The point of the stylus doesn’t mark the part. The stylus is too far from the surface to be marked. Lower the marking head, then try marking again. 3 Intermittent characters The point of the stylus was oiled or lubricated. Dismantle the stylus. Remove the point. Clean the point with a dry cloth. Reassemble the stylus. 4 Only the upper, or lower, part of the characters are marked. The part doesn’t have a constant thickness in the Y direction. Use feeler gauges to reposition the part so that it is level. 5 Only the left, or right, part of the characters is marked. The part doesn’t have a constant thickness in the X direction. Use feeler gauges to reposition the part so that it is level. Ref. 92198 - P5000 EM_en_A 32/36 A Resolution of the problems H 2. What to do if... Situation Description Things to check 1 The screen on the front of the machine is blank. Is the power supply switched on? Is the cable properly connected? Is the On/Off switch in the On position? Is the fuse on the back of the machine in good condition? Action See: Power supply connection See: Changing the fuse 2 One of the carriages, X or Y, does not return to the origin when the start marking command is given. • The sensors are dirty. • The machine’s mechanics are obstructed. • Clean the sensor by directing a blast of air inside the fork with an air gun. • Turn off the machine and move both carriages until the stylus is in the middle of its travel. Try to execute another marking. 3 Lost in the program? Refer to the manual. Press Esc and answer "no" to the questions from the program until you’re back to the main menu. 4 Marking doesn’t start. / No access to the "Marking" menu The bridged male Sub-D9 connector or on one of the accessories is not connected. Connect the Sub-D9 bridged connector or the accessory. 5 Irregular marking The CAN plug is not connected. Connect the CAN plug.

Test code
Measurement method The measurements were taken according to the regulations of standard NF EN ISO 11201:1996. Measurement equipment used: • 01dB - Stell intergrated sonometer,SIP 95 S, # 20394 • Cal 01 calibrator, # 40141 Material used for marking: • type P5000 EM machine mounted on a column stand The unit is placed on a wood workbench in a workshop where the background noise level is negligible compared with the noise emitted by the machine. The work station, situated more than 2 m (6.562 ft) from any separator, is designed for a standing operator. The marking is carried out using a EM1/C stylus on a steel plate with dimensions of 110 mm (4.331 in) x 100 mm (3.937 in) x 3 mm (0.118 in) clamped to a base support. A new plate is used for each test.
Definition of the microphone position The microphone is positioned 1 m (3.281 ft) in front of the machine and 1.6 m (5.249 ft) from the floor.
Test conditions • marking speed: 100% • stroke force: 50% • marking of 3 lines of 18 characters 5 mm (0.197 in) high • steel plate with dimensions 110 mm (4.331 in) x 100 mm (3.937 in) x 3 mm (0.118 in) 2. Noise emission information The values given below represent the noise emitted by the machine during marking. When the machine is in use, the values mentioned are independent from the total noise level to which the operator is exposed, since the actual noise level will vary depending on the operator’s environment. • Average level: LAeq = 76 dB(A) (LAeq = "equivalent" average sound level measured using the A-weighting) • Peak level: Lpc < 108 dB(C) (Lpc = peak acoustic pressure level) When marking resonant parts (metallic, hollow, thin), wear hearing protection for sound levels LAeq > 85 dB(A) or Lpc > 137 dB(C).
