The V automatic cutting machine has been designed and built for cutting materials such as fabric or simi-
lar in single-layer, single-sheet, or multiple formats. To perform this operation, it is equipped with a
cutting head installed on the robotic beam that moves on a bristles conveyor.
The V machine consists of a conveyor cutting table (4 where the material to be cut is positioned. The
cutting table surface is made up of a set of multi-needle bristles that support the fabric, allowing the
blade to move through the bristles needles without damaging them. The suction passes through the bris-
tles and reaches the fabric to be held during cutting.
The "Cutting Beam" (1 moves along the entire length of the cutting conveyor, and the "Robotic Cutting
Head" (2 moves above the cutting beam. A blade is installed inside the cutting head and moves alter-
nately to cut the fabric. Depending on the provided V model, other tools can also be installed on the
cutting head.
After the cutting conveyor, the unloading table (5 is positioned, consisting of a conveyor belt. The cut
fabric automatically or manually moves from the cutting conveyor to the unloading table, where it can be
collected.
Underneath the unloading table, there is the electrical box (7, the main switch for turning the machine
on/off, and the blower that generates suction inside the cutting area to hold the material.
To create a vacuum to hold the material, the cutting surface must be covered with a high-intensity poly-
thene paper sheet that is impermeable to air. The roll of polythene paper is placed on its support (6 lo-
cated at the entrance of the cutting table.
The operator can control the cutting process and set parameters to cut the markers (cutting files through
the software installed on the computer (8 placed on a console fixed to the unloading table. Commands
to move the beam and cutting head are given through the operator panel "HMI" (3 located on one side
of the beam.
During the cutting procedure, the operator must be positioned next to the machine at a safe distance to
monitor the execution of the cut and potentially modify the execution settings of the work cycle.

Polyethylene paper roll: Placed on a shaft that rotates on bearings. After a mattress has been laid or
moved onto the cutting table, the operator must cover the entire cutting table with a poly paper foil. If a
surface is not well covered, there is a loss of suction and the vacuum generated is weak. When machine
does a bite, the suction generated in the cutting zone hold the poly foil attached to the fabric and the bris-
tles conveyor pulls the foil rotating the roll.
Guide bar: The polyethylene paper roll rotates around this bar before being placed on the mattress. The
bar adheres the foil to the mattress.

To avoid accidental contact of the moving machine with people and/or objects that may be inside the
danger zone, the cutting beam is equipped with actuators that move upon contact, activating electrome-
chanical sensors that cut off power to the motors  points labeled 1 in   on the previous .
Obstacle detection bumpers are mounted on both sides of the cutting beam. To operate the machine, re-
move the obstacle that has collided with one of the safety bumpers, return the bumper to its neutral po-
sition and reactivate the motors.

4.9.2  EMERGENCY BUTTONS
The machine is equipped with five "emergency stop" buttons (red mushroom with mechanical lock as
shown in   (labeled with number 2:
e next to the HMI operator panel;
e onthe opposite side of the cutting beam;
e next to the computer console;
e at both fabric entry corners;
e at both corners of the unloading table.
Activating an emergency button causes an immediate interruption of all machine functions by turning off
the motors. The cutting process can be resumed by releasing the stop button (it must be turned clockwise
until it clicks, restarting the motors, and following the procedure for resuming job.
NOTICE
QO The activation of an emergency button is indicated by turning on the orange indicator next to
the computer console and by the status indicator light above the cutting head housing, which
emits a flashing orange light.

4.9.3  OVER-STROKE CONTROLS
The V cutting machine has three levels of over-stroke controls that work in cascade and prevent excess
movement:
e The electronic cam, managed at the software level, prevents the cutting beam and cutting head from
moving beyond the set limits.
e Electromechanical limit sensor: There are 2 limit sensors present that activate if the cutting robot exits
the working area. The limit sensors are installed on a side bracket of the beam and on one side of the
cutting head, covered by the housing  point 3 in  . If one of them is triggered, it halts any
movement of the machine by cutting power to the motors. To restart the motors, move the cutting
head or cutting beam away from the triggered sensor by approximately 5cm; once the emergency
light on the computer console is turned off, you can operate the switch to restart the motors and con-
tinue with the work.
e Mechanical end stop: a pair of impact buffers mounted on both ends of the cutting table and on both
ends of the beam intercept the beam and/or cutting head at solid points to stop their travel without
causing damage to sensitive parts of the machine. The machine will hit these bumpers after the limit
switch has already been activated (the beam and/or cutting head will move by inertia for some dis-
tance after the motors are already off. To resume work, follow the procedure described in the previ-
ous point.

4.9.4  CUTTING HEAD COVER SENSOR
The "open cover" sensor is installed on the cutting head (indicated with number 4 in  . It detects
the removal of the cutting head cover and interrupts any machine movement by turning off the motors.
Reposition the cutting head cover to restart the motors and continue using the machine.
4.9.5 T-MOV SAFETY DEVICES
If the machine is equipped with the T-MOV device (for lateral translation from table to table, there are
three safety devices identified with number 5 in  : an end stop positioned near the translation rail
for detecting the translation end stop, visible only by removing the side cover of the cutting conveyor;
two push actuators placed at the corners of the cutting conveyor ( .

4.10 STOP AND PAUSE DEVICES
There are three ways to suspend the ongoing work: HOLD, PAUSE, and STOP.
HOLD mode: by pressing the HOLD button on the HMI or software , the machine suspends all move-
ments: press the PLAY button on the HMI to continue the interrupted procedure. During the HOLD mode,
it is not possible to move the machine: the machine's operations are like frozen in the current situation.
PAUSE mode: by pressing the remote enter button next to the HMI when a cut is in progress, the machine
finishes cutting the current track and goes into PAUSE mode, lifting the knife and the presser foot; on the
HMI , it is possible to open the screen with the 4 direction buttons to move the cutting head. Press the
remote enter button again to resume job from where it was interrupted: the cutting head returns auto-
matically to the correct position and resumes job.
STOP mode: the STOP button interrupts the cutting procedure. To resume the interrupted job, it is neces-
sary to restart the cut: the machine resumes cutting from the next  after the STOP, or from the begin-
ning of the last  that was not completed before the STOP button was pressed.
NOTICE
If the STOP button was pressed during the conveyor movement, always check the cutting posi-
tion by doing a simulation of a  with the laser spot before resuming job.

capture the point, adjust the layer alignment in the software, and move the laser spot to the opposite
side of the layer.
4. Visually check if the laser spot is over the layer. If it is not, repeat the procedure from step 1, trying to
get closer to the layer edge, allowing less tolerance. Alternatively, ensure that the file dimensions are
compatible with the layer dimensions.
NOTICE
If the machine does not have enough space to display the maximum Y-axis clearance with the
laser spot, the head will remain at the alignment confirmation point, but the layer position has
still been captured.
WARNING:
After confirming the layer's origin, the machine moves rapidly towards the end of the cutting
area. Be careful not to be hit by the beam during this movement.
If a layer origin is placed in such a way that it doesn't allow cutting one or more patterns because they are
not entirely within the cutting area, even in subsequent windows, the operator panel will display a red bar
in the direction where the marker exceeds the cutting area   . Trying to initiate the cutting
procedure under these conditions, the software will warn that a portion of the marker cannot be cut be-
cause it falls outside the cutting area and will ask whether to proceed anyway. By confirming the choice,
the machine starts cutting while discarding the patterns that do not fit within the cutting area as it pro-
gresses through each cutting window. If the cutting start is canceled, the machine exits the procedure, and
the origin and alignment process will need to be repeated, ensuring not to exceed the cutting area's limits.

e The USB port on the computer where the protection key is inserted is damaged.
e The program was previously closed but is still running in the background: open the Windows Task
Manager and forcefully close the VCUT.EXE program.
e The VCUT program icon on the desktop is referencing an incorrect path: create a new shortcut that
points to the correct path.
e The name of the computer where the VCUT program is installed has been changed - contact OROX
technical support for assistance.
When opening a cutting file or during the cutting procedure, if you encounter a system error message
stating "unhandled exception," it could be due to the following reasons:
e The cutting file contains instructions that are not understandable by the VCUT software or CNC firm-
ware.
Solution: Validate the cutting file and ensure it is compatible with the software and firmware. If neces-
sary, recreate or obtain a compatible cutting file.
e An elaboration/execution/geometry parameter has a value incompatible with the execution of the
file.
Solution: Verify the parameters used in the profiles and try reopening the file with appropriate param-
eters.
e Modifications made to the marker via the Toolbox functions have created a cutting instruction that is
incompatible with the marker itself.
Solution: Reopen the cutting file and use the Toolbox functions differently to ensure compatibility be-
tween the modifications and the marker.
e The latest operating system update has failed.
Solution: Retry the Windows update process to ensure that the operating system is up to date.
If the issue persists or the error message provides more specific details, it is recommended to contact
OROX technical support for further assistance.

e Check the Pause Conveyor button (blue button on the unloading table control panel: it should be dis-
abled (turned off.
e Verify the value of the delay before advancing in the conveyor parameters: the bite of the layer starts
after the time set in this parameter. Ensure that the delay is set appropriately.
e Disable the option "Wait for suction to reach advancement level" in the conveyor parameters. This
option may be causing the conveyor to wait for a specific suction level before advancing.
After a conveyor bite, some patterns are overlapping with patterns from the previous window.
e The layer has slipped during bite: increase the bite suction or turn on the air blow or speed synchroni-
zation on the spreading table.
e The layer has slipped during bite: ensure that the polyethylene foil covers the entire area of the
cutting conveyor properly.
e The layer has slipped during bite: reduce the maximum X limit value in the elaboration parameters by
approximately  cm to facilitate layer transportation.

of the conveyor bite check
If the bite by window type has been selected and the bite check feature has been activated in the cur-
rent execution profile, the V machine will cut all fully-contained patterns within the current window. It
will then make a notch beyond the edge of the marker at the location of the last cut pattern and execute
the programmed advancement. At the end of the bite, the laser spot will position itself at the marked
notch on the edge, awaiting position confirmation. The screen displayed on the HMI is as follows:

Y wi
The operator must check if the laser spot's position corresponds to the control notch's position. If the po-
sition is correct, confirm using the bite check button. If not, use the arrow buttons to move the laser
spot above the notch and then confirm again with the bite check button.
If the option to check layer slope at every window has been selected, the cutting head will move to-
wards the end of the window, waiting for slope inspection. The operator must verify the laser's position
relative to the marker margin and, if necessary, use the arrow buttons to move the laser spot above the
marker margin. Confirm layer alignment with the slope check button: the software calculates the new
slope angle, displaying the new layer position on the screen. Confirm the start of the cut with the
alignment confirmation button or press the stop button to abort the operation and pause the ongoing
cut.
If layer slope check at every window hasn't been selected, then the machine resumes cutting as soon as
the operator confirms the bite position.
Furthermore, it's possible to shift the layer in the Y direction using the translation direction buttons: with
each button press, a 1 mm shift in the cutting position is applied.
