Switching on
When the machine is switched on, the gear motor repositions itself as follows:
- It acts on microswitch 1
- e gear motor changes its rotation direction and moves upwards again by approx. 1-2 mm.
- e boiler begins to heat the water for approx. 45 sec, in order to reach the optimal temperature (established
by the soware).
An NTC is used as a temperature sensor; in the event of overheating this reduces boiler element power
consumption. e electronic system detects the current boiler temperature from the drop in voltage of
the sensor and adjusts it accordingly. Heating element values and corresponding temperatures: see table.

3.1. Single microswitch gear motor
e gear motor is powered by a direct current motor that engages with the smaller double toothed wheel
using a worm screw. e unit is mounted on the axle of the large gear wheel and when a coee is requested,
it moves from the standby position to the dispensing position, and then back to the standby position again.
e microswitch indicates to the gear motor when the brew group is in the work position or home position.
- Standby position: 1
- Dispensing position: 2
