Laser database

Laser database

To show LTT data in Vulcan, change the “Machine Database Type” from Defaults to Trumpf LTT. Then Vulcan read LDM-Cloud_TC49.XML which is generated from Trumpf’s Laser Database Management (LDM) and show the LTT data. User can edit the required laser parameter values for each page.

Laser database page

Selecting the field opens a numerical keyboard. Using this we can enter the values for the parameters.

Numeric input screen
  • Clone page : User can clone a current laser page parameters and create a new laser page with different material, thickness, lens and nozzle type.

Clone page
  • Delete page : User can delete a laser page which is not required.

  • Import : User can import a new laser data LDM-Cloud_TC49.XML by selecting the respective directory.

Import window
  • Export : User can export a current laser data LDM-Cloud_TC49.XML by choosing the respective directory to save it.

  • Update : User can select this button to update LTT. This updated new LTT will replace “TrumpfDefaults.XML” file and Add new LTT table and data to LDM-Cloud_TC49.XML and Defaults.XML files.

  • View defaults : User can select this button to View default values of the parameter which stored in Defaults.XML files, if the parameter is different from default values.

View defaults

  • Save and Restore defaults : User can save the values as defaults either for "current" or "all LTT’s" and restore later from "user" or "Trumpf defaults".

Save defaults

Restore defaults

  • Done : Saves all the changes.

  • Ramp cycles : Vulcan read LDM-Cloud_TC49.XML which contains ramp cycles information and show the ramp cycle data as follows.

Ramp cycles page

With reference to Trumpf LTT, the Ramp cycle parameters are used for the Piercing. A maximum of 199 ramp cycles are available in which from 181 to 199, customer can use it.
