The Pneumatics Enclosure (PE) is an imperative component in the ATC System.
Pieces necessary for this components setup include:
The PE Box itself,
The Control Cable (goes to the controller)
The Motor Cable (goes to the motor)
Optional:
The Manual Tool Change Wire with button (optional and used for a MTC Change)
Run/MTC Enable Wire. (Goes to the VFD)
Hoses
- (1) 8mm w/ 1/4" quick pneumatic connector
- (1) 6mm hose with splice on one end
- (1) 6mm hose
- Pro tip, add a strip of tape of a different color to a one of the 6mm airlines (doesn't matter which one, as long as its the same one), at both ends so you can easily identify the hose, since the 6mm hose is exactly the same.
Here is a picture of the 1/4" quick connector included. Making this common connection is the customers responsibility, but if you're setup for press fit connectors, the hose is 8mm OD
This end of the plug goes into your dryer, the other end into the inlet of your PE annotated by .65mpa/95 PSI. Plug the 110v power cable into an outlet, if international where 110v isn't available locally you can cut the wall end of the plug off, and wire it to a plug native to your region. The power supply in the PE is auto sensing and will switch automatically to 220v.
Next onto the left side of the PE.
This is why taping a single hose for marking on both sides would be helpful to you.
Here I applied tape to the de-duster line and is the hose with the splitter. Again, it doesn’t matter which one you apply it to, and it isn’t required, but it’ll make it easier for this step for sure. Then the other hose goes in the tool port here, and the tool change port on the motor
The line with the splitter goes in the dust port (at the bottom)
And the other hose goes to the Tool port (at the top)
After that you line up the 2 pin, 3 pin, 4 pin & 5 pin connectors and push them in, and lock them in place.
The 3 pin MTC and 2 pin Run ports are optional and for use with the MTC Button
Now your ready to hook up the ATC Spindle Motor
