ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 1 – DESCRIPTIVE 1.1 Nomenclature The shrink fit unit Start.2 is composed of an induction generator, an inductor, and a separate remote control.
ELCO 1.2 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Separate remote control All controls are brought together on a separate remote control ; only the data transmission wire links the box with the shrink fit unit. The shrink fit unit can be used both by a right-handed user and a left-handed one, with the same ergonomics. On this remote control : « Default » and « Control » lights (see §6.2 dysfunctionings) ; in condition of normal use of the shrink fit unit, only the green light should be on. Selector (see §5.
ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 2 – SECURITY 2.1 Risks The shrink fit unit has been designed in the traditional way, especially regarding security. Nevertheless, despite all the devices used, using some techniques can be a risk: - Cut : handling cutting tools may cause cuts in case of unfortunate movements. You are advised to wear gloves.
ELCO - Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 electricity : make sure that the unit is properly switched on with an adequate plug on a protected network able to feed with 3x200V/240V-50Hz/60Hz, 32A and equipped with a circuit-breaker 32A curve C and with a differential 30mA In case of deterioration of the inductor, switch the unit off and disconnect it. In any case, before pulling the electronic rack out, switch the unit off and disconnect it.
ELCO 2.2 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Pictograms The following pictograms are used in order to prevent the following risks : people with a pace maker or active implant are not allowed to use the unit ; passive implants are not concerned. ISM unit (scientific and medical industrial units) group II class A according to EN55011, output frequency 19kHz-30kHz.
ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 3 – TRANSPORTATION AND PACKAGING 3.1 Transportation The manufacturer has done whatever is necessary concerning the packaging so that the transportation does have any consequences on the unit. If any irregularities are noticed at the delivery, it is up to the receptionist to make the remarks and reservations on the delivery note so that the carrier’s responsibility is involved. In no case the responsibility of the manufacturer should be involved. 3.
ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Unlock the column: Take off the transportation pieces, located under the inductor, in front face. Electric connection : Connect the unit to the three-phase network 3x 200V/240V alternating 50/60Hz + ground/earth (neutral is not used, no order in phases). The electric line must be connected to a circuit-breaker 32A curve C and protected by a 30mA differential. 4.3 Moving the unit For all moving of the unit, switch the unit and compressed air off.
ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 5 – OPERATING 5.1 Principle of functioning The shrinking (or unshrinking) principle consists in heating an attachment (H1) in order to expand a chuck bore (H2) and to insert (or remove) the tool’s shank (K1), then cooling the whole of it in order to get an almost cast solid structure. The heating is realized by the induction technique.
ELCO 5.3 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Installation of the chuck holders The shrink fit unit is compatible with all the unit chucks (H4) on the market. This compatibility is possible because the chuck holders are peculiar to each chuck. You can easily recognize them because of their colour: HSK = blue ISO/BT = green Depending on the chuck to be shrunk or unshrunk, put the corresponding chuck holder (A3) in its lodging. 5.
ELCO Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 In case of dysfunction, the induction stops itself automatically after the heating period, and the unit becomes then out of order for 30 seconds ; Do not switch off the unit or do not unplug the electric network during this time. Never restart a heating cycle after an induction cut without a complete cooling of the tool holder. Never restart a heating cycle after having depressed the induction button without a complete cooling of the tool holder.
ELCO 5.7 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Unshrinking modus operandi In order to avoid burns and cuts, all the handlings must be done with Kevlar gloves supplied with the unit. 1- After having beforehand set the adequate chuck holder (A3) and the inductor stop (A2), put the tool and the tool holder (H1/K1) for unshrinking into the chuck holder. Make sure that it is free of dirt, especially cutting oil.
ELCO 5.9 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Switching the unit off Switch the unit off from the main switch (A6) bringing it to position 0 If you are not using the unit for a while, switch the unit and the accessories off from the electric network. 6 – SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 6.1 Cleaning the unit That operation shall be realised after a complete stop of the unit. The unit must be regularly cleaned with a dry cloth. Never use detergent or abrasives.

ELCO 6.3 Shrink fit unit Start.2 27/04/2010 Maintenance The only thing to be done by the user is a regular cleaning of the unit. Fuses : The electronic card is equipped with fuses. If a fuse blows, you must determine the reason. In any case, fuses must be replaced by others which have exactly the same characteristics (3 fuses 10x38 690V-30A gRB Very high and fast cutoff power - FSA070gRB30T13-M330015).
