[ Tool Sensor Detection Statistics ]
This graph shows the statistics of detections by tool
sensor for 325,000 times.
As this result shows, as sensing is done many times,
the difference between the highest position which
detects ON and the lowest can be settled down in same
position.
Therefore, a tolerance of the micro switch itself will not
be affected.
2 : St r uc t ur e

Safety for detecting the clamp location
Cable-free table and improved spindle behavior achieved a full automatic detection without
opening the cover.
Since there are 3 types of clamps came in the package, there are more chances to do
sensor detection which is required when changing clamps. Safe and automatic detection is
realized.
In MDX-40/540 and J WX-10, it was necessary to open the
cover and turn the tool half a turn by hand during the
detection sequence for rotary unit and for jig detection.
Cable-free table
There is no need to connect and disconnect the sensor
cable during the detection process. No need to worry
about cable jamming.
Automated spindle rotation
Half turn of the tool is done automatically during the
detection sequence.

Slight backlash is necessary for rotary action. With
absence of backlash, it gives abnormal load to the
gears resulting in rusty rotating. Appropriate
backlash within stable range is good.
Backlash is measured by a special device every 9
degrees in a full round (360)
Backlash of rotary unit
There is a slight error in the rotating angle of the rotary-axis unit.
Rotary unit of J WX-30 improves rigidness of worm gear structure to realize narrow ranged
backlash.

When cutting dust was not cleaned out,
it may make a collision of the detection

Swivel Clamp
Swivel clamp is suitable for both rotary cutting and table cutting. Cutting on rotary unit and
on table by detaching and attaching the clamp lets you make jewelry models like chaton
(bezel). Cutting on either rotary or table is also available.
This method performs cutting on the workpiece which is
mounted securely to the rotary axis. It lets you perform
multiple-surface cutting while rotating the workpiece.
This method performs cutting on the workpiece which is
mounted securely to the table. This performs cutting only
from the top side of the workpiece.

Square Clamp
Square Clamp enables you to perform "two-surface cutting" and "circumferential cutting.It
is available to cut the side face of a ring, and the face of a brooch or locket, that are not
possible with tube clamp.
This method cuts the surfaces one at a time by rotating
the workpiece by 180 degrees. For a ring-type model, it
cuts the side face, and for brooch-type model, it cuts the
both top and bottom surfaces.
Similar to cutting with the tube clamp, it is suitable for
cutting the exterior of a ring
** This method requires a milling support structure, that
must be fashioned using two-surface cutting beforehand.

Cuttable Area in SRP Player
For the workable area which was not hard-clipped by J WX-30, SRP Player can narrow the
workable area and set the cuttable area, so that the cutting tool can avoid a collision with
the clamp. This narrowed area differs up to the clamp.

Detection of Clamp
For detection of tube / square / swivel clamps, the coordinates at conductive contacts with
the clamp are saved and used for calculation of its location.
Followings are being done by detection.
Getting information of the clamp type
Detecting Y coordinate as center of rotation
Detecting Z coordinate as center of rotation

Error can be made when cutting dust is put on the detectiing points of the clamp
or on the detection pin.

Calibration for Tilt of the Clamp
A axis of attached clamp should be accurately parallel to the X axis. However, it often
makes a slight tilt due to variation of clamp attachment.
By detecting the clamp, the machine recognizes the center of rotation and tilted degree to
the X axis.

Adjustment to the tilted clamp can be considered as if the entire XY coordinates grid for
workable area is tilted for the same amount.
The same thing happens for XZ direction.
With the adjustment activated, when you move one axis by cursor key, the other two axes would make a slight move
at the same time. This is a feature you can see when the adjustment is applied to the all 3 axes.

9 : Det ec t i on
44/76
No detection error with the same
detected point of the detection pin.
To reduce this detection error, a proper attachment of the clamp is a key.
Remove cutting dust for all contacts of the clamp and eliminate any slackness
from the clamp and related parts by tightening the screws firmly.
A clamp tilting caused by hand attachment and a tilt of A axis can be calibrated, but there is a
slight detection error which affects the cutting quality.
Slight detection error with different
detected point of the detection pin.
The detection pin is carried to the detecting points that are determined by coordinates. Thus, the
contacts at those points may vary if the clamp is tilted. The bigger tilting of the clamp makes the
bigger detection error.

Settings for Clamp
VPanel remembers detected location of the clamp with its origin(s) even if the power is
turned off. VPanel shows the current selection of the clamp when it starts. You can check
which clamp is attached and set up at that time.
This shows the adjustment is done for
square clamp (large) and XYZ origin is set

Cutting with the Square Clamp is done in order of [Two-surface cutting] first and then [Circumferential cutting].
This is because of necessity of cutting out Milling support structurebeforehand in two-surface cutting.
J ewelStudio has a function to add Milling support structureto a CAD data.

Caution when cutting Milling Support Structure
Be sure to perform Roughing and Finishing using with the bundled
ball end mill CAP-LN-EBD.
Without doing Finishing, the workpiece can break when performing Circumferential cutting.

Tip when cutting Milling Support Structure
Specify the cutting area for Finishing at the 3 holes only.

Finishing by CAP-LN-EBD should be added if the project file (spj) does not have it.

When opening a CAD data by SRP Player instead of using CAM Exportfunction of J ewelStudio,
the orientation of the model for cutting should be carefully taken care.
[Swivel Clamp : Rotary cutting Table cutting]
The orientation of the model for cutting should be consistent between Rotary cutting and Table cutting. Otherwise, the cutting
position comes different from projected and gives improper cutting result.

Resolution of tool path
In order to realize precisely the fine details of jewelry design, SRP Player creates finer
resolution in tool path for J WX-30.

Cutting Result by Tool shape
Finishing tool (ZEC-J 3015) has a steely acute tip to achieve
precise cutting. The tip forms ball in less than 0.1mm.
The pitch for tool path in XY axis should be set appropriately.
The bigger pitch makes the much uncut between the pitch,
and the narrower pitch makes the longer processing time.

J WX30Pit has an automatic calibration function for XYZ axis. Calibration is necessary when a wire
is replaced.

Stop
Since J WX-30 often uses small diameter tools, error may not come out even if a
physical stress is born between the tool and workpiece. The tool would be damaged
before making error.
Damage of spindle motor or seizing of spindle unit may be generated.

Monitoring of Temperature
Error will be generated when the temperature of spindle motor exceeds 76C.
Error will be generated when the temperature of spindle motor circuit exceeds 90C.
