5.5.12 Setting the cooling stage
The 3 cooling stages of the Multimat
®
Touch allow to decrease stress within the ceramics. If
programmed, cooling will start on completion of the firing time period. Cooling will continue
until low temperature is reached again.
Touch the respective yellow touch button. Each time you touch the yellow sensor button the
cooling stage changes. Press as often as necessary to select the appropriate cooling stage.
Cooling stages
0 = firing chamber moves immediately into its topmost stop position – no cooling
1 = firing chamber opens up to approx. 70 mm
2 = firing chamber opens up to approx. 50 mm
3 = firing chamber remains closed
Quick cooling
(Time controlled cooling available in sinter mode only)
5.6 Save program
Save your program by pressing the button "S". The firing parameters entered will be checked
for feasibility. Firing parameters that are not feasible will be shown in the info field. Confirm
error message with “C”. Correct error by entering new data. If all firing parameters are
accepted, the control system will propose to use the next available program number as a
storage location. If you agree and accept this proposition, then press the button "S" again.
Alternatively, if you wish to save a program individually, then use the numeric keypad to
enter a different program number and confirm with “S”. The firing parameters will be saved.
By entering a new number, the old program with this number will be overwritten. You will be
asked if you want to overwrite.
