What should be noted when adapting the zero point positioning system to machine tools?

When adapting the zero point positioning system to machine tools, special attention should be paid to installation accuracy, gas source stability, cleaning and maintenance, and safe operation to ensure long-term stable operation of the system.
The following are key precautions:
|Precautions | Specific Requirements and Instructions|
|Installation foundation accuracy | The flatness error of the installation substrate should be controlled within ± 0.01mm, and a dial gauge should be used to calibrate the workbench to ensure levelness. The pre tightening force of the bolts should be uniform (such as a torque of 25Nm for M8 bolts) to avoid positioning deviation caused by tilting.  | 
|Gas source configuration | Pneumatic drive needs to be stable at rated pressure (such as LQTMJ-5 model requiring 0.55MPa), and equipped with filters and pressure regulating valves. During processing, it is necessary to rely on mechanical locking to cut off the gas supply and avoid continuous gas consumption.  | 
|Cleaning and impurity prevention | Before clamping, it is necessary to clean the contact surface, rivets, and guide rails of the locator with compressed air to prevent iron filings or oil stains from affecting accuracy. The system comes with an automatic chip removal function, which can spray airflow to remove impurities.  | 
|Load and Safety | The processing load must be strictly below the rated clamping force (such as LQTMJ-5 clamping force of 5KN), and overloading may cause the pull pin to be pulled out. Suggest adding safety equipment such as detection units and tension sensors.  | 
|Environmental adaptability | Suitable for common machining environments such as turning, milling, and grinding. However, if there are abrasive dust, corrosive liquids, or temperatures exceeding 80 ℃, it is necessary to contact the manufacturer in advance for approval.  | 
|Components and Maintenance | Only use original accessories (such as rivets and seals), regularly inspect worn parts (recommended to replace every 100000 cycles). Operators need to receive training on functional principles, clamping force calculation, etc.  | 

Brief demonstration of operation process:
Install the base plate: fix it on the machine tool worktable, verify the flatness, and evenly tighten the bolts.
Connect the air circuit: Ensure stable air pressure and correct connection between the intake and exhaust ports.
Clamping workpieces: Place workpieces or trays with positioning rivets into the positioning unit, and the system will automatically lock them after the gas is cut off.
Regular maintenance: Check air tightness weekly and verify clamping force and accuracy monthly.
By strictly following the above points, the compatibility between the zero positioning system and the machine tool can be effectively improved, ensuring machining accuracy and efficiency. If encountering special machine tool interfaces or complex working conditions, it is recommended to directly contact technical support for customized solutions.
