Kval face Owner's manual

  • Hello! I've reviewed the Operating Instructions for the KVAL Alliance Series, which includes the ON-2010, FACE, Architect DI-DM, EDGE, DL-NCC and RAIL models. This system is designed for efficient door machining with automated setup and integrated tracking. I'm here to help you with any questions about the features , operation and maintenance described in the document.
  • What is the average productivity of the Alliance Series for hinges and cylindrical or mortise locks?
    What type of doors can the Alliance Series machine?
    What types of feeds are supported by the Alliance Series?

Introduction
Alliance Series a-a
Introduction
This chapter provides a description of the Alliance Series product and identifies safety guidelines to
ensure personnel safety and proper equipment use.
Overview of the Alliance Series
The Alliance System functions as a single door machine with
multiple stations controlled from a central console. Integrated
KVAL software tracks each door as it progresses, automatically
setting up the next station just as the door arrives. This allows
the Alliance to machine five different doors for five different specifications simultaneously; no setup
time is required between doors. Average productivity is one minute door-to-door for hinges and cylin-
drical or mortise locks:
Squared hinges with screw holes.
• Cylinder locks with screw holes.
• Mortise locks with function holes.
• Card locks.
• Auto routing and squaring for vision panels.
• Viewer holes.
• T-Strikes.
• Flush bolts including deep drills to 12”.
• End detailing for closers, holders

Quick Start
1.Apply power to the Line.
a.Turn on all compressed lines to all machines.
b.Turn on all electrical disconnects for all machines.
c.Apply electrical power to all Safety Zones starting with Safety Zone one.
Note: Safety Zones must be turned on in order.
Safety Zone 1
Safety Zone 2
Safety Zone 3
Safety Zone 4
d. Pull out the CONTROL TRANSFORMER switch
for each machine in the safety zone.
Each control transformer button should
light and each computer should start.
e. Push the START button for each com-
puter in the safety zone.
All lights on the Status Light Panel for
each machine should be illuminated.
f. If all Safety Zones are powered the Power to the Line
process is complete, if not move to the next safety zone
and go back to step d.

2. Launch the KVAL 2006 user interface
For each machine:
a. Open the KVAL folder on the computer desktop.
b. Double-click the KVAL2006.EXE shortcut. The KVAL 2006 user interface opens (see exam-
ple below).
3. Home each machine:
a. Remove any doors from the feed system.
b. In the KVAL 2006 interface (on the PC), click on the Maint button. This will change the
blank button below it to read Home.
c. Click twice on the Home button. The machine should start the homing operation.
d.NOTE:While the homing operation is in progress, the Home button changes its label to
Homing.
4.

To load doors into the Alliance line:
1. Chose the Door Stack 1 or Door Stack 2 to load based on product flow.
2.Lower the Stack Lift to the desired height. See “Stack Control:” on page 3-10 for more information.
3.Enable the Stack Access mode. See “Door Stack Access” on page 3-3 for more information.
4.Load the doors onto the stack lift. Move the doors into the machine until they doors contact the door
stops.
5.Disable the Stack Access mode. See “Door Stack Access” on page 3-3 for more information.
The doors are now ready to process.
