Check automation timing for loading new timber

WHAT YOU NEED 

Standard Personal Protective Equipment

  1. Inspect the AIT for signs of damage or wear, and for any rubbish or bits of timber that may prevent correct movement.
  2. Open a commissioning job file in Simple.
  3. Load the boards onto the side transfer legs.
  4. Select the first board to be cut in the job file and start cutting.
  5. When the saw starts, visually make sure the AIT conveyor moves down once the board has passed the gap sensors on the side transfer legs.

  6. Then make sure the AIT conveyor moves up and picks up the board off the side transfer legs at the correct time so that the board sits near the fenceline but does not hit the fenceline rollers when fed into the saw.

  7. If required, adjust the gap time setting Q526 to achieve the right timing.

Notes:Boards that are sitting too close to the fenceline will more likely hit the fenceline rollers causing damage.Boards that are sitting too far from the fenceline will require the side clamp rollers to push them to the correct position. The constant slamming of the boards will eventually cause damage to the rollers.
