• More the speed and more the stroke power under the same pressure value. May be
useful to increase the air pressure as the speed increases.

UGGESTIONS FOR SELECTING THE AIR PRESSURE AND THE STYLUS-PIECE DISTANCE
As the Frequency, Pulse length, Speed and Stylus type have been selected according the
previous criteria, it is necessary to set the air pressure and the stylus distance.
Proceed as follows:
1. As the text or drawing to be marked has been programmed and the piece positioned and
fastened, execute a free cycle (with pressure at zero) pushing on the Start button in order
to verify the correct path of the stylus.
2. Then, depending by the stylus used:
A. With light stylus and remote I/O provided with pressure regulator:
• position the stylus at 1 mm from the piece
• set the pressure value at 6 Bar
• set the I/O pressure regulator at 00 value
• push on the Start button and increase gradually the pressure by means of the I/O
regulator up to reach the correct vibration of the stylus with a regular noise and a
good marking result.
• If the marking deep is too high, reduce the piece-stylus distance and, keeping
unchanged the other parameters, repeat the test. Try many times reducing the
distance up to reach the quality desired.
• If the marking deep is too light although the max pressure has been reached with the
I/O regulator at 99, it necessary to increase gradually the piece-stylus distance. Try
many times up to reach a good result. If the marking deep is still light, use the heavy
sintered stylus.
B. With sintered stylus and remote I/O provided with the pressure regulator:
• set the I/O regulator at 99
• set pressure to zero by closing the regulator on the marking head
• position the stylus at distance of about 2 mm
• verify the fastening of the piece
• push on the Start button and increase gradually the pressure by adjusting the
marking head regulator up to reach a good result
• increase or decrease the distance in order to increase or decrease the marking
deep.
Note: Do not wait for the cycle end for changing the parameters; stop the cycle pushing on
the proper I/O button
