New functions in the control panel:
Two new features have been implemented in the latest iteration of the DVR SATURN Lathe, these are “Recommended Turning Speeds
Guide” and the “Powered Assisted Braking”
Recommended Speed Guide
The recommended turning speed is a simple guide to advise the turner on the turning speed based on the size of wood and the type of cut
the turner wishes to perform.
How to use the speed chart:
1. Press the <Program P> button until the “Speed Guide” page appears
2. Press the <Selector E> button to enter the speed chart
3. Select the type of cut (Finish/Shape Cut or Rough Cut) by using the <UP RPM> or <DOWN RPM> button and confirm by
pressing the <Selector E> button
4. Select the diameter of the work piece by using the <UP RPM> or <DOWN RPM> button and confirm by pressing the <Selector
E> button
5. Press the <Program P> button to set the recommended speed as the current running speed
IMPORTANT NOTE: The “Recommended Speed Guide” only provides a rough estimate of the speed which should be used.
The user should adjust the speed value based on:
The shape, balance and weight of the work piece
Type of cut which the wood turner is going to perform
The experience of the wood turner
Powered Assisted Braking
The powered assisted braking feature can be used to help slow large work pieces when the user has pressed the “OFF” button.
How to use the Powered Braking:
1. Press the “Program P” button until the “Assisted Braking” page appears
2. Press the “Selector E” button to ENABLE or DISABLE the power braking
3. IF the braking mode is enabled, the motor will energize the motor when the user has pressed “OFF” to help slow down the
spindle
Vibration sensor
The vibration sensor will automatically shut down the lathe when a potential unsafe working condition has been detected. Excess vibration
could be caused by an unbalanced workpiece, unstable footing or incorrect speed selected. There are four settings for the vibration
sensor, these are Low, Med, High and Off. The settings can be adjusted in the Lathe Settings menu.
- HIGH (default): this is high sensitivity setting, default setting on the machine. This default setting will shut down and apply
braking to stop the spindle when excess vibration is detected from imbalance in the work piece or excess speed. This is a
recommended setting.
- MED: this is intermediate sensitivity setting. This setting will shut down and apply braking to stop the spindle when excess
vibration is detected from imbalance in the work piece or excess speed. When med sensitivity setting selected – the operator
must determine that working condition are safe.
- LOW: this is low sensitivity setting. This setting will shut down and apply braking to stop the spindle when a mass of vibration is
detected from imbalance in the work piece or excess speed. When low sensitivity setting selected – the operator must determine
that working condition are safe. This is a NOT RECOMMEND SETTING.
- OFF: The vibration sensor can be turned off by the user to prevent the motor from shutting off due to vibration. When Off
selected – the operator must determine that working condition are safe. This is a NOT RECOMMEND SETTING.
WARNING! It is recommended that the vibration sensor is used when turning. Please start motor with
slower speed for unbalanced work.
Please pressing any key to continue when the vibration sensor warning is displayed.
