⑤. Varnish UV lamp button: It is used to test whether the varnish lamp has signal output. When clicked, the light is always on and off when clicked again.
2. 485 segment mode
This mode requires the support of UV lamp hardware, and conventional lamps cannot. There is only a single headlight and the position is fixed, and the part that exceeds the material needs to be manually blocked. This configuration does not need a varnish lamp, and the color white and varnish control signals are controlled by the 485 protocol signal.
Normal switching 485 segment control mode: Exit the software and open the root directory of the software, find the “Config” folder and open it, find the HuahongRotationPrinter.ini file, open it with Notepad, search for the UVLampMode=0 field, and find it under the UVLampMode=0 field Add a UVLampCtrlMode=1 field, and then save. After restarting the software, the UV lamp segment control mode will take effect.
①. Varnish UV lamp interval: The interval time for the UV lamp to be turned on during work. Setting 1 means that the lamp is turned on once every revolution. If the UV lamp needs to be on and not blinking from the start of printing to the end of printing, this parameter should be set to 0.

Motor control
Rotating electrical machine
The motor that makes materials such as cylinders take the horizontal axis as the center of rotation to perform angular displacement circular motion is named by Y.
⑧. Reset speed: when the Y Reset (Y reset) button is pressed, the reset speed of the Y rotating motor is. The default setting is 10mm/s.
⑨. Low/Middle/High Speed: Set the rotation speed in low, middle, and high gears, the low speed is 200mm/s, the medium speed is 400mm/s, and the high speed is 700mm/s. By default, if the setting is too high, there will be problems such as ink breakage in overclocking printing.
⑩. Continuous speed: When the motion mode is set to continuous, this parameter setting is valid and can be set according to requirements, the default is 50mm/s.
⑪ . Acceleration distance: The distance when the car accelerates to a constant speed is also the braking distance. This value is generally set to 10mm.
⑫ . Buffer length: the distance from the dot to the edge of the screen when the carriage moves, this value cannot be greater than [print border + X white edge], usually set to 10mm.
⑬ . Gear ratio: When the “material diameter” parameter is changed (every time a material with a different size is changed), the gear ratio of the rotating motor needs to be retested. Click the “Measure” button, and the motor will automatically recalibrate the gear ratio. When the rotating motor stops rotating, click the “Set” button to automatically convert the gear ratio. It is worth noting that when correcting the gear ratio of the rotating motor, in order to confirm whether the ratio on the right side of the feedback key is stable, it is generally necessary to test continuously for 3 times (just do not click the set key or save the parameters before the point test key), If the ratio has not changed for 3 consecutive times, press the “Set” button, the software will automatically calculate the gear ratio, and then click the “Measure” button again to check whether the value on the right of the “Measure” button is close to 1 (such as 0.9999 or 1.0001, etc.), after two or three times of continuous testing, click the “Set” button, and finally click the “Save Parameters” button. If the material diameter changes after downloading, the value often changes, indicating that there is interference or there is a problem with the line, and try again. Please try again.
⑭ . Origin type: Set the origin type of the rotating motor, that is, the origin of the motor. If the gear ratio of the reducer is 1:1, then no matter whether you set the origin type as an external origin (the sensor must be connected) or an internal origin of the motor Z, here Select the item “Motor internal Z point”; if the gear ratio of the reducer is 2:1, then the origin type must be the external origin.
⑮ . Reducer gear ratio: Set the gear ratio of the reducer. Regardless of whether the machine transmission structure is a direct connection or belt, as long as the driven wheel and the synchronous wheel are the same size, the reducer is set to 1:1. If the driven wheel is larger than the synchronous wheel 1 time, set 2:1.
Stepper motor
The motor that makes the headstock move linearly in the lateral direction on the screw, is named X.
⑯. Reset speed: manual reset speed, that is, when the machine head is at a non-origin position, after pressing the X Reset (X reset) button, the X stepping motor returns to the origin at the set-reset speed. The default setting is 15mm/s.
⑰ . Low/Middle/High Speed: Set the stepping speed of the motor moving from the origin to the starting point of printing in the left and right directions (the stepping speed of the distance from the starting point of printing to the end of printing depends on the speed of the rotating motor), including the speed of manual movement. Low, medium, and high speeds, you can set the appropriate speed according to your own speed.
⑱ . Continuous speed: When the X reset button is clicked, the speed at which the sprayer returns to the origin, the larger the value, the faster.
⑲ . Acceleration distance: The distance from which the rotating motor accelerates to a constant speed is also the braking distance. This value is generally set to 10mm.
⑳ . Gear ratio: When the gear ratio of the X-axis stepper motor is installed and used for the first time, as long as it is adjusted well, it does not need to be re-adjusted. The input box on the right side of the gear ratio is the current gear ratio value. Click the “Measure” button, and the motor will move a certain distance to the left (by default, the software moves 100mm every time the button is clicked, but the actual distance is not necessarily 100mm. If the gear ratio is correct, it will walk 100mm), when the motor stops running, measure the actual distance of the motor with a ruler and input it into the input box on the right side of the “Measure” button, click the “Set” button and the software will automatically Convert the gear ratio value (do not click continuously or the gear ratio will become larger and larger), until the actual measurement distance is equal to 100mm, usually, 2-3 times of calibration is enough. Let’s understand how to adjust the gear ratio of the stepper motor through the schematic diagram:
㉑ . Stepping motor speed: Set the moving speed of the X stepping motor from the origin to the starting point of printing when printing starts, and the moving speed of the head reset after printing and select different gear speeds according to the needs. In addition, the stepping speed of the head during printing depends on the rotation speed, the faster the rotation speed, the faster the stepping speed, and the slower the rotation speed, the slower the stepping speed. The speed relationship between the two is master-slave, and stepping follows rotation.
Stepper Motor Debugging Steps
Step ①. Before the machine head moves (that is, before clicking the “Measure” button), take the X-axis screw drive assembly as a reference point, and mark 1 on the beam below it, as shown in the figure below:
Step ②. Then click the “Measure” button, the machine head will move to the left for a certain distance, and when the motor stops running, mark 2 on the beam with the same reference point, and measure the distance between mark 1 and mark 2 with a ruler. (assuming the first measurement is 120mm), fill in the measured value (120mm) into the input box on the right side of the “measure” button, and then click the “set” button, the software will automatically convert the gear ratio, and then click the “Save Parameters” button, as shown in the figure below:
Step ③. Click the “Measure” button again, and the machine head will continue to move to the left for a certain distance. When the motor stops running, mark 3 on the beam with the same reference point, and use a ruler to measure marks 2 to 3 The distance between (assuming the second measurement is 100mm), fill in the measured value (100mm) into the input box on the right side of the “Measurement” button, then click the “Set” button, and then click the ” Save parameters” button, and the stepper motor gear ratio calibration is over. If there is still an error in the actual measured value (the error value is 0.1~0.2mm, it is normal and can be fine-tuned through the step calibration test chart later), please re-test.
㉒ . Speed: Set the displacement speed of the head-bottom plate.
㉓ . Gear ratio: By clicking the “measure” button below, entering the actual distance traveled by the motor into the parameter box, and clicking the “set” button, the software will automatically calculate the gear ratio.
㉔ . Reset position: Set the length from the origin after the head bottom plate is reset. Click the “Reset” button, and the displacement motor resets back to the origin. Click the “Forward” button, and the displacement motor will move outward, click the “Backward” button, and the displacement motor will move inward, and click the “Stop” button, and the motor will stop running.
㉕ . Movement length: Set the distance when the displacement motor moves manually.
㉖. Reset before printing: Set whether to return to the origin of the displacement motor before each printing.
㉗ . Origin status: Whether the origin of the displacement motor is sensed, ON senses, OFF does not sense.
Head voltage
Head voltage and temperature
Set different voltages for each head according to the actual printing situation, and the voltage range is generally between 16 and 20. Look at the head test chart, the set voltage is too low, the test chart is false and unreal, and the bending is worthless, the set voltage is too high, and the printed test chart will fly ink. After the voltage is modified, you need to click the “Apply” button.
The head temperature setting range is generally 30-34 degrees, and it can be set according to the situation. Usually, in order to ensure the normal heating of the inkjet, you need to turn on the “head Heating” button and start printing after the temperature reaches. When the head is not installed, please do not insert the heating control signal terminal into the headboard.
Head waveform configuration
Waveform configuration can be set as wave 1 and wave 2, and two wave files (2mm and 4mm) can be loaded, but only one can be selected when using. Click on “Wave
Press the “Shape Load 1” button to open the waveform file to be loaded, and click the “Download Waveform” button after loading. It should be noted that the waveform number of the waveform channel selection must be consistent with the waveform number setting. For example, the waveform loaded by waveform number 1# is 2mm, and the height of your printed waveform is 2mm, then the waveform channel must be set to 1#. The waveform loaded by the waveform number 2# is 4mm, and the height you want to print is 4mm, then the waveform channel must be
Set 2#, and click the “Apply” button after setting, if the waveform ID does not match when the software is opened, please reload the waveform file and download it.
• How to load a waveform
Steps
The waveforms and curves matched by inks from different manufacturers are different, so when loading the waveform, you must confirm whether the selected waveform file is used correctly. In addition, for the same type of ink, the waveform configuration file must be reset when printing at different heights, and the same file can be shared, and the voltage, temperature, and speed are all different.
Step ①. Click the “Settings” button, select the “head Voltage” item, and then click the “Load Waveform 1” button, as shown in the figure below:
Step ②. In the pop-up “Please select a waveform configuration file” dialog window, find the location where the software is installed (for example, the path location is D:\1 high-speed machine 2021.10.11\0777_FirstRelease_V1.01j2021.10.17), and then open the “Config” file Folder, open the “waveform” folder again, select the waveform file “otation_2m m_20210510” with the suffix name wfo type, and then click “Open”, as shown below:
Step ③. After waveform 1 is loaded, continue to load waveform 2, and click the “load waveform 2” button, the operation method is the same as loading waveform 1, and load waveform 2, as shown in the figure below:
Step ④. After waveform 2 is loaded, click the “Download Waveform” button. If the download is successful, the software will pop up a “Waveform Download Successful” prompt, just confirm it, as shown in the figure:
Step ⑤. Set the waveform channel of each head to be the waveform number 1# (if printing a 4mm waveform, please select 2#), and finally click the “Apply” button, as shown below:
Cleaning control
• head moisturizing
Set the flash spray on the head to keep the head in a moisturizing state. After modification, click the “Save Parameters” button to take effect.
①. Moisturizing flash spray frequency: When the weak flash spray button is pressed, the frequency of the flash spray on the head is valid. 1/8Hz, spray once every 8 seconds; 1/4Hz, spray once every 4 seconds; 1/2Hz, spray once every 2 seconds; 1Hz, spray once every second, 2Hz, spray once every second 2 times, and other frequencies are also calculated according to this.
②. Flash before printing: whether to enable flash before printing, the default setting is yes.
③. Flash spray after reset: Whether to turn on the flash spray after the machine head is reset, usually set to Yes.
④. Strong flash time (S): Set the duration of the strong flash, the default setting is 2 seconds.
Lift control
Lifting parameter setting
⑤. Lifting stroke (mm): The lifting stroke is the distance from the upper end of the origin to the lower end of the endpoint. Fill in the stroke distance according to the actual stroke of each printer. Here, set 112mm.
⑥. Printing height (mm): When measuring the height (only effective for height measurement, others can only adjust the printing height manually), the software automatically raises and lowers the height of the probe from the material according to the printing height to be equal to this parameter.
⑦. Lifting speed (mm/s): The vertical speed of the machine head in the up and down direction, that is, the change value of the lifting height per unit of time. Set the speed according to the requirement, set 5mm/s here.
⑧. Height measurement position: After clicking the “Height measurement” button, when the machine head rises to the upper origin limit, the distance moves to the left. It is worth noting that the height measuring probe should be used as a reference point, otherwise, if the height measuring position is set too small or too large, the probe will not be able to detect the material and there will be a dangerous consequence of the machine head pressing on the material.
⑨ . Probe length: When using the height measurement function, the length of the probe protrudes from the bottom plate.
⑩. Gear ratio: The gear ratio of the Z-axis motor. When the gear ratio of the Z-axis motor is installed and used for the first time, as long as it is adjusted well, it does not need to be re-adjusted. The input box on the right side of the gear ratio is the current gear ratio value. Click the “Measure” button, and the motor will move up a certain distance (the software defaults that the moving distance is 50mm every time the “Measure” button is clicked, but the actual distance before calibration does not vary. It must be 50mm, if the gear ratio is correct, it will go 50mm), when the motor stops running, measure the actual distance of the motor with a ruler and input it into the input box on the right side of the “Measure” button, click “Set “Key software automatically converts the gear ratio value (do not click continuously or the gear ratio will become larger and larger), until the actual measurement distance is equal to 50mm, usually 2-3 times of calibration is enough. Let’s understand how to adjust the gear ratio of the Z-axis lifting motor through the schematic diagram:
Z-axis lifting motor debugging steps
