SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: Before proceeding, contact CINCINNATI
Laser Service for pre-installation instructions.
LIFTING AND MOVING
Machine weights are provided in Section 4 -
SPECIFICATIONS.
The main frame is lifted using four standard lifting
clevises attached to four lifting links (C.I. Part # 920584)
with spacers (C.I. Part # 921838). The four lifting links
(supplied by CINCINNATI) are attached to the inside of
the main frame with 1”-8 UNC SHCS bolts. See Figure
2-1.
When lifting with chains, cables, or straps, use the maximum
length possible to reduce the side loading generated at the
lift points. Use spreader bars or intermediate lifting beam
if ceiling height will not allow a high pick.
Before lifting the main frame, be sure that lifting
links (C.I. # 920584) and spacers (C.I. # 921838)
are installed. Do not use eyebolts or other devices
not designed for excessive side loads. Using
improper lifting devices could result in serious
injury or death to bystanders and/or cause
extensive damage to the main frame and ber
laser.
IMPORTANT: Extreme care must be taken not to subject
the machine to shock loads. The machine must be
lifted and set down gently.
The load frame can be lifted using straps with S-hooks at
each of the four outer corners. The S-hooks are hooked in
the access holes located at the bottom of the load frame.
Adequate padding must be used at all points to protect the
machine’s nish. The straps can be gathered and lifted with
a hook attachment. See Figure 2-2.

FOUNDATION
A Foundation Plan drawing is provided shortly after the
machine is ordered. This drawing provides the user with
detailed information required to locate the equipment and
the eight machine anchors. The customer should prepare
the eight anchor locations prior to arrival of the equipment.
The eight pads must be pre-leveled to lie in the same plane
within .50 inches (12.7 mm), and the anchor holes should
be drilled as specied on the Foundation Plan drawing.
CINCINNATI INCORPORATED provides anchors, studs,
nuts, and shims for nal leveling.
If the machine is to be installed near shock inducing
equipment such as punch presses, turret punches, etc.,
contact CINCINNATI INCORPORATED.
INSTALLATION OF MACHINE
After setting the machine on the anchor studs, place
washers and nuts on studs, but do not tighten. Installation
consists of the following steps:
1. Remove lifting clevises and spacers.
2. Remove all steel banding and protective wrappings.
3. Install fume fan (optional) and fume duct connecting
to fume plenum with ange and fasteners provided.
Seal connection with a bead of RTV silicone. Make
the electrical connection to the fan drive motor with
wiring provided.
4. Connect the customer-furnished fume exhaust system
to the fume duct exit port.
5. Complete preliminary leveling procedure described
below.
6. CINCINNATI Service will install the operator control
station and complete nal electrical connections to the
control.
7. Install gas lines, wiring, and hoses as described in the
pre-installation manual.
CHILLER
The water chiller is a free-standing unit requiring only oor
support. Cooling lines are connected to the main frame and
laser at the gas and coolant location mounted to the rear
of the machine. Hoses are furnished to connect the chiller
when located as shown on the Foundation Plan. Consult
CINCINNATI INCORPORATED if an alternative chiller
location is required. See Section 4 - SPECIFICATIONS
for chiller uid specications.
LEVELING
Main frame leveling adjustments are made using
jackscrews provided at the mounting pads. Figure 2-3
shows the mounting pads. The machine foot mounting
pads are located on the outside surface of the main frame
in the four corners.
Figure 2-3 Main Frame Leveling Adjustments
2-3 EM-552 (R-09-16)
Slotted shims are inserted between the machine foot and
steel spacer block as shown on the Foundation Plan drawing.
After shims are inserted, jackscrews are to be backed off
or removed. The procedure for leveling is described in the
next sections.
PRELIMINARY LEVELING
1. To check cross-leveling, place a precision level on
machined pads on each end of the main frame. For
preliminary leveling, a level with .004 inch/ft. precision
is sufcient (0.33 mm per meter). See Figures 2-3 and
2-4. Lift machine with jackscrews and shim under
mounting feet (shims are provided).
2. Longitudinal level is checked on the top of the X-axis
guide way. Adjust as described above. (See Figure
2-5.) Longitudinal leveling does not require a precision
level.
A very powerful magnetic eld surrounds the
magnet track. Keep all metal (steel) tools away
from this track. Place a piece of wood (2x4) over
the magnetic track to protect it and personnel.
FINAL LEVELING
Final leveling should be done with a CINCINNATI
INCORPORATED Service Representative present.
The purpose of nal leveling is to ensure that the gantry
does not rotate about the X-axis as the gantry moves from
end-to-end. Excessive rotation will cause laser beam
misalignment during operation.
1. Use a 15 inch (380 mm) precision spirit level with a
sensitivity of .0005 inch/ft. (0.04 mm per meter).
2. Place the level on the top of the gantry and position the
gantry at X = zero. See Figure 2-6. The gantry may be
moved by manually pushing it when drives are off, or
by using JOG mode when drives are on.
3. The top of the gantry is not machined. Therefore, it
will be necessary to shim one or both ends of the level
to establish a reference reading and make the level
sit solidly in place. Paper shims can be used for this
purpose.
4. Observe the position of the bubble while moving the
gantry from X = zero to X = Maximum travel. The
maximum acceptable deviation is one division of the
level (.0005 inch per ft. or 0.04 mm per meter) as the
Figure 2-4 Cross Leveling (Preliminary)
