2.3 Drives
2.3.1 Overview
The travel axes of the ByVention are based largely on familiar components also used in other Bystronic machines. The main drive elements are described briefly below.
Cutting bridge, X-axis
The X-axis drive has a rack-and-pinion design. The drive motor is mounted on the cutting bridge. The rack and pinion is installed on the machine stand. The cutting bridge has a cantilever design and is held by two linear guides.
Cutting carriage, Y-axis
A spindle drive is used to move the cutting carriage. The motor and spindles are fixed in the cutting bridge. The spindle nut can move and is fixed to the cutting carriage.
Tool, Z-axis
The Z axis is a spindle drive. The motor and spindles are fixed in position and the spindle nut moves with the cutting head.

2.3.2 Position encoder
The position encoder generates electrical pulses as a function of the distance traveled. Inside the position encoder is a disc with markings that are detected by an optical measurement system similar to a light barrier. By counting the number of pulses generated, the CNC can find out the distance traveled.
The internal optical measuring system generates two pulse signals shifted in phase by 90° to each other. This allows high measurement resolution and can be used to determine the direction of rotation. In addition, the position encoder generates a zero pulse every revolution, which is used for the move to reference function. The signals are transmitted via an RS422 interface.
All three directions of travel (X, Y and Z) are measured using a position encoder.

Assembly
With collet open, push the position encoder onto the locked shaft (7) until the flange rests against the housing. Fix the position encoder to the flange using the three position encoder clips (8). Make sure that the O-ring (9) is seated properly. Attach the special tool to the collet (1). A hex socket wrench SW 8 and an Allen key SW 3 can be used instead of the special tool.
If the zero pulse needs to be adjusted, this can be done by turning the lever (4) or the hex socket wrench.
Fix the lever (4) or hex socket wrench in the required position, and use the lever (5) or Allen key to tighten the collet (tightening torque 2.2 Nm). Remove the adjustment tool and screw on the blanking plug (6).
Collet chuck torque is 2.2 Nm.

2.4 IO box
The IO box is used to transfer sensor and actuator signals via a common cable. We specify which boxes are sensor IO boxes and which are actuator IO boxes: their function cannot be chosen to suit. Most of the signals from proximity switches in ByVention are grouped via IO boxes and transferred to the cIOCON card.
The IO box is not a bus system. each signal cable is looped through separately. Only the +/- supply and ground line are common to all sensors and actuators of an IO box.

2.5 GASCON6 The GASCON6 unit is located on the cutting bridge under the top cover.
2.5.1 Description
The GACSON6 process-gas unit is a compact device that electronically controls the pressure of various gases.
A digital signal processor (DSP) forms the heart of the GASCON6 electronics. The main mechanical component is a specially adapted slider combination that is driven by a solenoid piston.

Fig. GASCON6
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
30 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
2.5.2 Function
The CNC transmits the required gas pressure to the GASCON6 via the SSI or HSL interface. The DSP processes the signal. The DSP contains the pressure controller and the subordinate current regulator.
An integral pressure sensor detects the actual pressure value. The electronic controller measures the current through the proportional valve solenoid and regulates the current to the required value by pulse width modulation (PWM). The generated magnetic field moves the piston of the proportional valve. The piston transmits the force to the slider, thereby setting the required outlet pressure. A return spring presses the slider against the piston.
Another pressure sensor monitors the intake pressure. If the stipulated gas pressure is greater than the intake pressure, the GASCON6 sends an error message to the CNC.
2.5.3 Automatic calibration
The GASCON6 has an automatic calibration function. The electronics in the GASCON6 calibrate the pressure sensors and measure the sensor offset automatically. This is done when the electronic system is switched on, after the hardware has been initialized and the CNC connection made.
Note: It is essential that the cutting gas supply valves ( electrically controlled valves ) are closed during initialization, otherwise the calibration will not work, resulting in an unsatisfactory cutting quality.

2.6 Gas mix The ByVention resonator is designed so that it can only operate with a ready-made gas mix. This kind of gas is called premix. A new gas mix unit is used to control the gas supply, which is described briefly below.
2.6.1 Distinctive features
The following components used in the standard gas mix unit (see diagram below) are not included in the new unit:
• CO2 mass flow controller • CO2 gas filter • Pressure switch (-S2) • Pressure switch (-S1) • He mass flow controller • He gas filter • Pressure switch (-S3) • Pressure switch (-S4) • He flooding valve (-Y2) • N2 mass flow controller is replaced with premix mass flow
controller
The Premix gas control unit has integral hardware detection i.e. the electrical connections to the gas mix circuit board (X1, X2) are identical. The missing actual-value signals for He and CO2 are replaced by a reference voltage of 7 to 10V. The LCS detects whether these signals are present to identify whether it is a gas mix or Premix unit. The reference voltage is generated from the LCS +/-15V supply.

ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
32 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
2.6.2 Mechanical design and specification
The gas mix block of the Premix unit has a more compact design owing to the smaller number of parts. The block is cooled directly and no longer has an additional cooling plate.
Laser gas consumption, Bylaser2200M Fastmix : 100 Nl/h Fastmix time : 15 minutes Normal mix : 6 Nl/h Premix gas specification 3.1414 % Carbon dioxide CO2 Quality 4.5 ( ≥ 99.995%) 31.414 % Nitrogen N2 Quality 5.0 ( ≥ 99.999%) 65.445 % Helium He Quality 4.6 ( ≥ 99.996%)
Accuracy of mix : ± 2 % relative
2.6.3 Error messages
The following warnings and errors from the LCS are new to Premix mode:
W118 Too large a difference between the actual and setpoint values for the Premix gas controller
W119 The pressure in the Premix gas bottle has dropped to 2 bar
E118 Too large a difference between the actual and setpoint values for the Premix gas controller
E119 The pressure in the Premix gas bottle has dropped to 1 bar
The other errors for He, CO2 and N2 no longer appear.

3 Transport and start-up Before start-up, check whether the customer / forwarder has correctly performed all items of the installation guide.
3.1 Unloading Transport and unloading are performed by the forwarder. The customer then installs the machine according to the layout plan and levels it roughly. All necessary details are given in the installation guide.
3.2 Leveling the mineral cast frame
ByVention has a mineral cast frame. Raise all four feet to level the machine.
CAUTION The weight of the machine must never rest on the round feet.
These are used only for stabilizing the machine and are not designed to be load-bearing elements. Even raising or supporting the machine on the round feet is not permitted.
Fig. Position of the leveling feet
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
34 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
The machine now stands on three leveling feet and can be aligned using a spirit level. Place the spirit level on the milled surfaces of the bridge. After aligning the machine, lower the round feet until they are under slight pressure.
Then position the material table and check table height with a spirit level (table castors and machine on same level).

3.5 Beam alignment
3.5.1 General information
The beam guidance system of the ByVention is based on the principle of “flying optics”. In this system, the distance from the laser module to the cutting head changes depending on the position of the cutting head. Initial alignment of the mirrors in this system is carried out when installing and preparing a new machine for use. A distinction is made between “angular” and “linear” alignments. Linear alignment is carried out once by Bystronic service personnel when they first install the machine. Correction of the angular setting of the individual mirrors may, for example, be necessary after replacement or cleaning. When changing the angle of a mirror, note that this also results in a change at all subsequent mirrors.
Scope of these instructions:
These instructions apply to ByVention. They serve as a beam-alignment reference guide for the service engineer.
3.5.2 Purpose and aim
• This section describes how to align the beam guidance system from the last deflecting mirror in the resonator up to the cutting head.
• The optics are aligned so that the beam is reflected from the center of one deflecting mirror to the next. This is done in each position of the "flying optics". The beam can deviate by a tolerance of ±0.1 mm from the crosshairs image, i.e. from the center, of the alignment gage.
• At the cutting head, the beam must exit through the center of the nozzle aperture and in a direction normal to it. This must be achieved at all four corner points of the machining area. The beam can deviate by a tolerance of ±0.5 mm from the cross-wires image, i.e. from the center of the Z-axis alignment gage.
Precise alignment of the laser beam is important for the following reasons:
• Only when the beam is precisely centered on the deflecting mirrors and lenses is it guaranteed for the laser beam to pass through the beam guidance system cleanly without any of its properties impaired.
• Optimum cooling of the deflecting mirrors is only possible if the incident beam is centered.
• Precise alignment increases the service life of the optical system.

44 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
3.5.3 Security
Safety must be given top priority when carrying out maintenance work on a machine. Since the risk of an accident increases with the number of people working on the job, the maintenance tasks and specifically the beam alignment job must be carried out by just one person. In addition, it is compulsory to secure the working area to prevent unauthorized people entering, and to wear laser safety goggles.
CAUTION Whenever working with a cover open/removed, always move the
keyswitch on the control cabinet to Laser Beam Alignment position and remove it. This de-energizes the drives.
CAUTION
Owing to the increased risk posed by the laser radiation and moving axes during alignment, this work must be performed in the absence of a third party.
Read the beam-alignment section through carefully before starting beam alignment.
The safety door protects the operator from the laser beam and injury from drives, etc.
Bypassing the safety door is forbidden.
Take utmost care when covers are removed; this may cause dangerous situations for other people too who are not involved in the job.
Fence off the danger zone.
DANGER
Danger! Invisible laser radiation. Laser class 4.
Avoid any irradiation of eyes or skin by direct or stray radiation.
Laser safety goggles must be worn. Risk of crushing by moving parts. Remain outside the range of motion of bridge, carriage, Z-axis and flying optics.
When working in pairs, the person working at the alignment gage must also have the hand-held controller.

3.5.4 Adjustment principle for the deflecting mirrors
Turning the setscrews clockwise moves the mirror towards the deflector vee-block.
Turning the setscrews counterclockwise moves the mirror away from the deflecting prism.
Both coarse and fine adjustment is provided.
Coarse adjustment: Unscrew the three Allen screws and remove the cover, then use an open-ended wrench to adjust the nut roughly. This adjustment method is not necessary after cleaning an optical component.
Fine adjustment: using setscrew B with the cover in place.
Dismantling the mirror: remove mirror holder I, which holds the mirror, by unscrewing the four mirror screws K.

3.5.5 Initial settings
• The initial setting for the setscrew is 32.5mm measured from the deflector vee-block.
• In the pre-assembled deflecting mirror, the gap between deflector vee-block and mirror holder equals 1mm at all three setting points.
3.5.6 Adjustment facility for deflecting mirrors
The deflecting mirror can be adjusted in two planes around the common pivot point B. The pivot point is always located opposite the chamfered edge of the mirror mounting.

3.5.7 Beam alignment devices
The beam alignment device consists of a tube containing a pair of cross-wires. A target plate can be inserted through a slot.
The following sections describe how to deliver a laser pulse onto the plate. The laser radiation that hits the cross-wires is absorbed by them. This results in a white cross on the burn image. The position of this cross in the burn image indicates in which direction the beam needs to be adjusted, if at all.

3.5.8 Preparatory tasks prior to adjustment
Have materials ready
• Mat. -Ensure equipment needed for safe working is provided (safety goggles, marking tape etc.)
• Semi-cardboard target plates
• Glass-ceramic target plates (plaster)
• Beam alignment devices
• 3 mm Allen key (adjustment easier to see with offset Allen key)
• Mirror cleaning materials Mechanical check
• The machine stand must be correctly leveled
• Transport securing devices on resonator removed
• Alignment gage cross-wires cleaned
• Replace the cross-wires with copper or stainless steel wire of the same thickness (1.5 mm) if they are damaged.
• to ensure that the laser module is working properly, the laser beam must not be aligned during the run-in phase. The beam must not be aligned or checked until the machine has warmed up. Warmed-up means: The laser has been running for at least 30 minutes at 50% of maximum laser power.

Laser power, single pulse [W] 2200 400-600
Pulse width, single pulse [ms] 200
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet

Note:
Precise and clean working is a basic requirement for trouble-free alignment.
Alignment is always performed from the resonator to the Z-tool.
A burn image must be circular (max. 1.2 times the width = slightly oval). It must have a sharp outline and be centered.
Move the beam and not the cross-wires. It is easier to compare with burn patterns obtained when the machine was first commissioned or during the most recent maintenance.
If the mirror is tilted on insertion or swarf gets into the mirror seating, this will cause deflection of the beam and hence to a poorer cutting result or damage to the beam path (“bellows burn”).
Tighten the mirror holder screws reasonably firmly. They must not be able to work loose. (Machine vibration)
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
50 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
3.5.9 Alignment process
The alignment device is used to check whether the laser beam is in the center of a mirror surface. It is fitted in place of a mirror. A cardboard plate is inserted into the alignment device and a single pulse triggered manually. The laser beam is visible as a burn on the plate. A cross-wire shadow (white) indicating the position of the beam can be seen on the burn. If necessary, the beam is corrected by adjusting the preceding mirror.
Note: Before actually starting alignment work on the machine, it is useful to check that the resonator, i.e. the telescope lens, is delivering an optimally aligned laser beam.
3.5.10 Beam adjustment ByVention
The procedure below describes the alignment of the three beam paths in sequence, starting from the resonator and working towards the tool.

WARNING Before moving the axes, make sure that no one is present in the
danger zone.
Fig. Overview of alignment procedure
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
© Bystronic Laser AG, 2006 51
Note:
For reasons of safety (open cover at back of machine), beam alignment of the X and Y axis is performed through the MrAdmin tool and with the key-switch switched in the control cabinet.
Align the Z axis with the safety door and covers closed from the Manual Mode menu.
3.5.11 Aligning beam path X
• Since movement of the cutting bridge occurs in this beam path, the beam must follow a parallel and central path along the whole length.
• Deflecting mirror 1 mounted on the cutting bridge sets a precise path that cannot be changed.
• To center the beam, the resonator must be aligned using the three adjustable feet.
• You should also bear in mind that all further measurements will be made at two positions.
Procedure
1. Secure the danger area against unauthorized access.
2. Move cutting bridge to position 1. The position of the Y-axis is not crucial.
3. Open the safety door so that the drives are de-energized and trip the door switch.
4. Set key-switch on the resonator to Lock and take the key out. This locks the shutter and switches off the high voltage
5. Move the key-switch in the control cabinet to Laser Beam Alignment position.
6. Remove the covers to allow access to the mirror.
7. Undo the four screws on the mirror holder and remove the mirror holder.
8. Place the protective cap on the mirror and fix mirror to the bracket.
9. Fasten the alignment gage on the mirror mounting.
10. Slide a target plate into the alignment device.
11. Move key-switch on the resonator to Unlock.
12. Start the MrAdmin tool and switch to the Laser tab
13. Click the Manual button
14. Set laser power to the desired setting by clicking Set Power
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
52 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
15. The danger area must be checked and a verbal warning given before performing an operation.
16. Click the Shutter open button, input shutter opening time, press the confirm key on the hand-held terminal and fire a laser pulse
17. Check the burn image and slide the target plate across so that a second burn image can be produced beside the existing one.
18. Move the bridge to position 3 by hand. Take care not to damage the mirror during the movement.
19. The danger area must be checked and a verbal warning given before performing an operation.
20. Click the Shutter open button, input shutter opening time, press the confirm key on the hand-held terminal and fire a laser pulse
21. Move bridge to position 1 again.
22. Check the burn image. If the burn images are exactly centered, as below, clean the mirror before fitting it, then continue with the procedure described under Aligning beam path Y
23. If the burn images are not centered (e.g. as below), adjust resonator position and repeat steps 15-23 until the burn images are centered.
Before adjusting the resonator, set the key-switch to Lock and remove the key.
24. Set key-switch on the resonator to Lock and take the key out.
25. Remove the alignment device and install the mirror.

Adjusting the resonator position
1. The three feet allow adjustment of the resonator in the
horizontal plane, while the four screws provide vertical adjustment. You should normally raise/lower all resonator feet and/or move them horizontally by the same amount (a mark can be helpful). Before you can move the feet you need to undo all the lock nuts and screws on the resonator feet.
2. If both burn images are exactly centered, as shown below, retighten all the screws on the resonator feet and secure with locknuts.
3. Afterwards check the alignment once more. If the beam is still centered, remove the alignment gage, then clean and fit the mirror. Now you must proceed with alignment of beam path Y.

54 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
3.5.12 Aligning beam path Y
Note:
To align beam path Y, the cutting bridge should be positioned as close as possible to the resonator (X+). This is important, because then a small alignment error in beam path X has less impact on the subsequent alignment of beam path Y.
Procedure
1. Secure the danger area against unauthorized access.
2. Move the cutting carriage to position 2 so that it is possible to remove the mirror and fit the alignment device.
3. Open the safety door so that the drives are de-energized and trip the door switch.
4. Set key-switch on the resonator to Lock and take the key out. This locks the shutter and switches off the high voltage.
5. Move the key-switch in the control cabinet to Laser Beam Alignment position.
6. Remove the covers to allow access to the mirror.
7. Undo the four screws on the mirror holder and remove the mirror holder. Place the protective cap on the mirror and position the mirror in the appropriate place.
8. Fasten the alignment gage on the mirror mounting.
9. Slide a target plate into the alignment device.
10. Move key-switch on the resonator to Unlock.
11. Move cutting carriage to position 1.
12. The danger area must be checked and a verbal warning given before performing an operation.
13. Click the Shutter open button, input shutter opening time, press the confirm key on the hand-held terminal and fire a laser pulse
14. Move cutting carriage to position 2.
15. Check the burn image. If beam deviation is severe, adjust deflection mirror 1 and repeat steps 9-13.
16. Slide the target plate across so that a second burn image can be produced beside the existing one.
17. The danger area must be checked and a verbal warning given before performing an operation.

18. Click the Shutter open button, input shutter opening time, press the confirm key on the hand-held terminal and fire a laser pulse
19. Move cutting carriage to position 2.
20. Check the burn image. If the burn images are perfectly centered, as below, set key-switch on the resonator to Lock, remove the key, clean and insert the mirror, then proceed according to the Aligning beam path Z section
21. If the burn image is not centered (e.g. as below), the beam must be centered by adjusting the previous deflecting mirror 1.
22. To align the beam, turn the adjusting screws on the deflecting mirror 1 slightly.
23. Now check the beam again.
24. Repeat the procedure from step 9 onwards until the desired result is obtained.

Sheet dimensions and cutting area
The maximum permitted sheet size is 3086mm x 1562mm. In inches this equals 120" x 60" + tolerance of 1.5". The minimum sheet size is 1200mm x 1000mm.
If the sheet is larger than the maximum cutting area, it is split up into separate sheet segments. The maximum permitted cutting area is 772mm x 1562mm. The length of the last sheet segment must be at least 500mm (machining process A) or 650mm (machining process B).
Fig. Dimensions
It should be noted that all dimensions are based on BYWORK coordinates. On the machine, the X (= length) and Y (= width) dimensions are swapped over.

Machining processes
As already mentioned, a sheet is divided up into separate sheet segments. The way in which this segmentation, or more precisely machining, is performed, is called a machining process. There are two different machining processes.
Machining process A = segment without overlap
Fig. Machining process A
Machining process A divides a sheet into segments each of maximum size 772mm, with no overlapping of segments. The width of each segment can vary, because it cannot always be filled with parts right up to the edge.
Machining process B = segment with overlap
Fig. Machining process A
Machining process B also divides the sheet into segments each of maximum size 772m, but in this case they overlap by 150mm. This means that under certain circumstances more parts can be nested on a sheet. It is not guaranteed, however, that parts in one segment will overlap into an adjacent segment. This depends largely on the parts geometry and the nesting, and the user cannot control this.

4.6.2 Programming
A ByVention machine is defined in BYBASE in the machine database by the Machine type field. The field must be set to BYVENTION to enable certain additional options in BYWORK.
Individual parts are programmed as usual in BYPART. Apart from the maximum parts size (772mm x 1562mm), there are no constraints placed on the programming.
Cutting plans are produced in BYWORK. If a ByVention machine has been selected, some of the standard dialog boxes and functions are no longer available. Instead, a new dialog box and a couple of special functions for ByVention plans have been added. The differences are listed below.
Nesting
Nesting is performed segment-by-segment from left to right, and always in an individual sheet segment. The order in which segments are machined is from right to left however. Since nesting is from left to right, the right-hand sheet edge is usually the "fringe". Thus if possible, the whole plan is rotated through 180° (only if without overlap) and shifted to the right-hand edge of the sheet.
Fig. Nesting
Separating cuts
Severance cuts are placed automatically. The severance cut is always made at a variable distance from the parts (default = 10mm). During cutting on the machine, the severance cut is always made before the parts.
If the residual sheet is shorter than 1200mm, additional segments plus the severance cuts are added at the end (i.e. on the far left), so that the residual sheet can be removed automatically.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
© Bystronic Laser AG, 2006 79
Manual functions
Most of the existing functions for making final changes manually have been retained. Unlike a standard machine, however, just one segment at a time can be edited for a ByVention machine. This means that a segment must always be enabled for the manual functions (insert, move, rotate and delete part).
A segment is enabled by clicking inside the segment concerned. The active segment has a yellow surround, and the usable area a gray background. All parts assigned to this segment are shown in light blue. All the other parts appear dark gray and cannot be selected for the manual functions.
Special functions
New functions that can only be used on ByVention plans appear under the Special/ByVention menu. These are described below.
Compress segments
This function removes empty segments and reduces the margins of existing segments. In addition, the remaining segments are shifted to the right-hand edge of the sheet. The function automatically checks all limiting conditions during the compression so that a valid plan is always obtained in the end.
Fill with segments
This function can be used to fill up a plan with empty segments (including the necessary severance cuts). The segment width and a possible overlap can be specified for this function. This function also checks the limiting conditions to ensure a valid division of the segments is always obtained.
Rotate plan
This function rotates the whole plan through 180° and shifts the segments to the right-hand edge of the sheet if possible. If the plan cannot be rotated (e.g. because the far-right segment is too short for the left-hand edge), then an error message to this effect is displayed.
Check plan
This function checks whether there are parts on the plan that lie solely in the left-hand overlap zone of a segment. Such parts can cause problems and should therefore be moved out of the overlap zone. The problem parts are shown in red.
Options
The ByVention tab has been added to the Job parameters dialog box. The new options are described below.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
80 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
Strategy
Without overlap The segments are arranged without an overlap.
With overlap The segments are arranged with an overlap. If during automatic nesting no part fits in such a segment, a segment without overlap is added.
Segment
Variable segment width The segment width is automatically adjusted to suit the parts during automatic nesting.
Fixed segment width The segment is not adjusted during automatic nesting.
Maximum segment width The segment will not be wider than the value set here. If the Fixed segment width option is enabled, all segments are made as wide as the maximum segment width if possible.
Separating cut
Always separate leftover sheet When this option is enabled, the residual sheet is always filled up with empty segments and severance cuts.
Top overcut Indicates the length of the overcut from the separating cut at the top edge of the sheet (machine X+ side). The severance cut including Top overcut has a maximum length of 1562mm + 10mm.
Parts distance Indicates the minimum distance of parts to the separating cut.
Operating mode Indicates the mode with which to perform the separating cut.

• Plan menu: Set/Delete cutting sequence functions are always applied to all the parts. The cutting sequence is always set segment-by-segment from right to left.
• Nesting menu: Set/Invert/Delete window functions not available.
4.6.4 Handling existing parts
Parts not explicitly programmed for ByVention may contain unsuitable technology settings. The machine may not accept the cutting plans. It is recommended to overwrite the existing technologies with the ByVention Technology Wizard. You can find the settings in ByWork under Job Parameters/Postprocessor3.
Fig. Job Parameters/Postprocessor3
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet

4.6.5 Linking job and parameters
A link between job and parameter file is compulsory for ByVention. It is not possible to select or edit the cutting parameters at the machine.
Fig. Postprocessor
In the Postprocessor window under Cutting Param., select the relevant cutting parameter from the local database or select the parameter directly from the CNC (see instructions below).
Select the path for the cutting plan under CNC data path. The cutprogs folder on the CNC can be specified directly for the data path, provided it has been configured as instructed below.
After the file export, the parameter set is entered in the cutting plan.
ByVention reads only the parameter-file name from the cutting plan, and then selects the parameter file from its database. The selected file path in BYWORK has no function.
The parameter files for BYWORK must be named according to the convention shown in the example below.
VENTION3015_8120_2200_1.0161_3_5_N2_GALVANIZED.PAR
Machine type, controller version, laser type, DIN number, material thickness, cutting head, gas type, additional information
The contents of the parameter files is not important, the machine looks for a parameter with the same name in your database.
Note: The CNC ByVention controller only accepts parameter files containing uppercase letters only.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
84 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
4.7 Loading cutting planson the CNC In ByVention, cutting plans and parameters are saved directly on the CNC.
Cutting plans can be loaded directly into a folder in the CNC and thus into the job list via the network.
Run Explorer and enter the IP address of the CNC in the address line as shown in the screenshot below. Copy the cutting programs to the cutprogs folder.
Fig. CNC folder structure
The param folder contains all machine parameters. It is recommended to copy these to the BySoft computer to create cutting plans.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet

4.8 NCP Machine Distributor The NcpMachineDistributor program has been developed as an add-on for the ByVention machine. It serves as a cutting plan distributor. The program monitors a freely definable directory at regular intervals for new cutting plans. If it finds a plan in this folder and if the appropriate ByVention machine is switched on, it copies the plan to the machine. This allows the programmer to prepare a plan at night when the machine is not switched on and ensures that the plan is then immediately available on the machine the following morning when the operator switches the machine on.
4.8.1 Installation
The program is installed on any Windows computer connected to the network. The program is installed by simply copying it. The .NET 2.0 framework must be installed on the computer.
4.8.2 Description
The NcpMachineDistributor program contains two basic modes. A State mode and a Setup mode. The State mode is used to copy cutting plans to the machine. The Setup mode is used to edit settings.
Fig. Modes
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
86 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
4.8.3 State mode
Select the Mode menu to put the program into Run mode. This checks the source directories and copies any cutting plans that are present. If the program is terminated in Run mode, it automatically starts up in Run mode then next time the program starts.
Fig. Mode
4.8.4 Setup mode
Select Edit, Add Destination Machine from the menu to add a new machine. This also allows you to select the source and destination directories.
Fig. Edit
4.8.5 Dependencies
The program was developed with C# under .NET 2.0 and therefore requires that the .NET 2.0 framework is already installed.

5 Remote diagnostics Remote Diagnostics (= RD) lets Bystronic Customer Services and the customer access data on the various machine modules such as the CNC or the laser. Using Remote Diagnostics, Bystronic Customer Services can identify machine faults and target maintenance work.
5.1 System configuration The Remote Diagnostics system comprises an RD server and a number of RD boxes. The units are connected together via the Internet. TCP/IP and HTTP are used as the communication protocols. The system is operated using a Web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, etc.).

5.1.1 RD box
The RD box is normally installed in the FMS network of the laser machine at the customer's site. It requires an Ethernet connection plus operating voltage. The RD box is supplied without monitor or keyboard. Linux Debian is installed as the operating system. One RD box can be used to retrieve information from a number of machines and their associated modules (CNC, MMC, PLC, laser, etc.).
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
96 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
5.1.2 RD server
Bystronic Laser AG looks after the Remote Diagnostics server. The RD server administers the RD boxes installed at the customer sites and performs user authentication.
5.2 Description of operation If the RD box is installed at the customer’s site, and the connection has been activated by the customer, the RD box is automatically logged onto the server via the Internet and SSH tunnel.
The Hotliner can log onto the RD server https://rds.bystronic.com by entering the Internet address in a Web browser, and then entering the user name and password.
Fig. Login
After logging on, those groups assigned to the user (based on the user name) are displayed. Those RD boxes enabled by customers are then displayed in these groups, identified by the customer name.
Fig. Group 1 start-up screen
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
© Bystronic Laser AG, 2006 97
The System Administrator can see all groups that exist and their logged-on customers = RD boxes. He/she can make changes and updates to groups and users.
Fig. Start-up screen for all groups
Selecting the customer of interest starts retrieval of the diagnostics data.
First of all, the diagnostics command is sent to the Web server in the customer's RD box; then the Web server in the RD box sends a request to each connected module (CNC, MachineService, LaserView, SysInfo, etc.); each of these modules, provided it is configured, sends back its current status, which is indicated in the user's browser by either green (= no problem) or red (= problem exists). The configuration of the customer machinery is also transferred with the same interrogation query.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
98 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
Fig. Customer screen
If a module in the subordinate branch has a problem, then the higher-level node is also displayed in red.
In addition, the red indicator shows two different fault situations:
1. The module is not responding to the query: the node is shown in red and the word (Offline) is also displayed.
2. The module is responding to the query but is returning an error status: the node is shown in red.
Fig. Service offline
Selecting the relevant module on the left-hand Navigation side displays the more detailed diagnostics data on the right-hand side (see Fig.: Service Laserview). Which data is displayed here and in which order depends on each individual module; it is not within the scope of this document to specify this more precisely. More details can be found in the relevant product information.

5.3 Security
5.3.1 SSH-V2 – Secure Shell Version 2
SSH enables cryptographically secured communication via unsecured networks and provides a high degree of security --> reliable, mutual authentication of partners plus integrity and confidentiality of the transferred data.
The main functions of the Secure Shell include:
• Login to a remote machine (PC)
• Interactive or non-interactive execution of commands on the remote machine (PC)
• Copying of files between different computers in a network.
5.3.2 SSL - Secure Socket Layer
SSL provides the facility to encrypt transmissions over the Internet and to safeguard them against outside interception. In SSL mode, a certificate guarantees both the authenticity of the contacted server and the connection to it. If an SSL-secured server is accessed, a certificate and the public key is requested and checked for authenticity.
5.4 Establishing and clearing a connection It is the customer who establishes the connection, and who can also terminate it at any time. Keys are transferred between the RD box and the RD server (SSH server) while a connection is being established and during the actual session. A connection is only established when the public key from the SSH server is recognized at the customer end. This ensures that only authorized users can use this connection.
The Hotline end is only able to terminate the connection; if the Hotliner wants to establish a connection again, he must first contact the customer so that the customer can re-activate the link.

5.4.1 Connection between RD box and RD server
The connection between the RD box (customer) and the RD server (Bystronic Laser AG) is secured by SSH. To ensure maximum security, the connection is established from the customer to Bystronic Laser AG. This has the advantage that port 22 in the firewall only needs to be opened for outgoing connections, and this can be terminated at any time by the customer.
5.4.2 Connection between Hotline and RD server
The connection from the Hotline to the RD server is implemented via SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). Bystronic customers cannot use this connection themselves because Bystronic does not wish to perform a provider function for their customers. If the customer wishes to have access to his RD box located in his factory, then he must provide this access via his own VPN.

5.6 Remote Diagnostics Box (RD box)
5.6.1 Hardware
The RD box is a self-contained black box (no fan) and has been designed so that it can be placed near the machine. The guarantee expires if the RD box is opened (seal broken).
Default configuration from Bystronic Laser AG
The RD box comes with the following default configuration:
Network: - IP address: 192.168.100.250 - Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 - Gateway: 192.168.100.200 - Broadcast: 192.168.100.255
Machinery configuration: - Bystar 3015 with Bycell Cross
5.6.2 Software
The system allows an authorized user to update the installed software via the Internet (SW update). In addition, the RD box is fitted with a flash card that contains the Interface configuration (IP addresses) and the configuration for the system services (XML file).

Logbook Program for electronic recording of logbook entries
PLC web server
Internet Explorer
5.6.4 ByVention software
Every ByVention is prepared for remote diagnostics. The programs required for this run on the CNC controller.
The digital logbook is not available for ByVention.
5.6.5 Location of the RD box
ByVision machines as per UA 06/04
The ByVention does not have a Netbox (router and switch). This means that the machine is connected directly via the CNC rack to the customer network/machine network. The external IP address of the CNC rack therefore may not comply with the Bystronic standards.
Fig. Version 1: Customer has just one ByVention
The IP address of the CNC is set to suit the customer network. The RD box is installed in the customer network and can be located in any position.
The RD box must be configured to comply with the IP-address scheme of the customer.
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
© Bystronic Laser AG, 2006 107
Fig. Version 2: customer already owns Bystronic machines
The CNC IP address is set to an unassigned number in compliance with the Bystronic standards. The CNC of the ByVention is connected to the Netbox hub. The RD box is installed in accordance with instructions.

108 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
5.6.6 Configuring the network interface
Since the RD box is a black box and the service engineer has no means of changing the network settings, these are saved on a flash card.
The default configuration of the RD-box network interface is as follows:
IP address: 192.168.100.250 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.100.200 Broadcast: 192.168.100.255
If the RD box is not operated with the default network configuration, then the settings can be changed using the flash card.
To do this, the flash card must be removed before the RD box is first used, and the file interfaces must be created (with the correct entries) in the new folder on the flash card. The file in the exampleConfig folder can also be copied over.
Fig. Interface configuration
Fig. File interfaces
When the RD box is booted up, the current settings are written to lastConfig and the settings in the new folder are adopted and the file deleted.

5.6.7 Configuring the system services (XML file)
The XML file must follow a defined format. Each service is assigned a type and a port. The IP address and the name (offline) may be different and may differ between the different machine types.
Type and Port definitions for the various services:
ByStar, -Sprint, -Speed and -Jet
Laserview (ByPump): Type Laser, Port 55210 (55910)
CNC: Type CNC, Port 55400
Machineservice: Type MS, Port 55510
SysInfo: Type SysInfo, Port 55710
PLC STL: Type PLC, Port 55801
PLC TRP: Type PLC, Port 55802
ByCell
Storemanager: Type Store, Port 55310
SysInfo: Type SysInfo, Port 55710
PLC LAG: Type PLC, Port 55803
ByVention
Laser module: Type Laser, Port 55210
CNC: Type CNC, Port 55400
SysInfo: Type SysInfo, Port 55410
Machineservice: Type MS, Port 55510
The XML file can be depicted in a tree structure to improve clarity and provide a better overview. This structure is defined using nodes.
Fig. Tree structure
ByAcademy Business Units Laser & Waterjet
110 01_06_ByVention_V03_en.doc
Once the XML configuration has been defined and the customer (RD box) named, nodes can be defined.
A node begins with the name <Node Name=“node name“> and ends with </Node>. The various services can be entered in between (<Node Name=“service“ Type=“type“ IP=“IP address“ Port=“number“/>).
The XML file is saved on the flash card, and the XML file configuration can be changed via the flash card.
To do this, the file BystronicMachinePark must be created (with the correct entries) in the new folder on the flash card, or copied from the exampleConfig folder.
Fig. Explorer BystronicMachinePark
This involves removing the flash card from the RD box, and editing the file BystronicMachinePark on another computer. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <BystronicMachinePark Language="de" Customer="Linie 11 (Test)"> <Node Name="Manufacturing Cell 1"> <Node Name="LCC1: Bystar 3015" Type="Bystar"> <Node Name="SPS (STL / TRP)" Type="PLC" IP="192.168.100.101" Port="80"/> <Node Name="Laserview" Type="Laser" IP="192.168.100.101" Port="55210"/> <Node Name="Sysinfo" Type="Sysinfo" IP="192.168.100.101" Port="55700"/> </Node> <Node Name="LCC2: Bystar 3015" Type="Bystar"> <Node Name="SPS (STL / TRP)" Type="PLC" IP="192.168.100.102" Port="80"/> <Node Name="Laserview" Type="Laser" IP="192.168.100.102" Port="55210"/> <Node Name="Sysinfo" Type="Sysinfo" IP="192.168.100.102" Port="55700"/> </Node> <Node Name="Bycell Line" Type="Bystore"> <Node Name="STOREmanager" Type="ByStore" IP="192.168.100.165" Port="19220"/> <Node Name="SPS (Storage)" Type="PLC" IP="192.168.100.165" Port="80"/> <Node Name="Sysinfo" Type="Sysinfo" IP="192.168.100.102" Port="55700"/> </Node> </Node>

6 Maintenance
6.1 Setting separating cut detection The laser sensor of the separating cut detection system measures the distance to the material to be cut/table. After the separating cut, the sensor checks whether all parts in the vicinity of the separating cut are further from the encoder head than the set distance. If not, an error message is displayed and unloading is stopped.
This distance is programmed on the back of the sensor using the yellow button and the LED display (see Fig.).
The teach-in process may only be performed after installing the sensor.

Procedure
• Move cutting table to unloading position (middle position).
• Place a 40mm (0, +5mm) metal sheet on the cutting table with the sensor's laser beam on it
Note: The sheet defines the minimum distance to the sensor. During subsequent separating cut detection, no part may protrude over this limit.
• Hold down yellow button -> red LED lights up
• After approx. 2 seconds, the LED starts to flash red (approx. 2x per second) -> keep yellow button pressed
• After approx. 4 seconds, flashing speed switches to 5x per second -> release yellow button
• Press the button briefly
• Press the key again briefly -> the LED lights up for approx. 2 seconds to confirm then goes off and flashes again briefly.
• The sensor is now ready for operation again and the switching distance is programmed.

6.3 Adjusting the table height sensors
The limit switches S14 and S15 and used to define the upper and lower limit of travel, and must be set so that they trip just after the upper and lower stop position respectively. A slight deflection of the sensor rollers is permitted. Sensors S42, S44 and S46 define the braking point before stop position (cannot be changed). Sensor S43 must be set to that the upper table position is flush with the sheet-feed height. Sensor S45 must be set so that when the parts-removal rake is moved in, it does not push the parts away ( sensor too low ) or collide with the table ( sensor too high ). Adjust closer to the cutting table as the cutting grid wears over time. Sensor S47 defines the bottom end position (cannot be modified).
Note: Set the proximity switches to a distance of approx. 0.5...1mm to achieve correct triggering behavior.
