CHAPTER 2 – Safety information
By way of example, the noise emission values for the machine during a work cycle are provided below:
During machining, especially when the tool enters the materials, noise peaks up to 109.8 dB (A) were
reached.
The above-mentioned noise values are emission values and not necessarily safe working levels.
While there is a correlation between emission levels and exposure levels, it may not be used reliably to
determine whether or not additional precautions are required.
Factors affecting the actual worker exposure level include:
• Duration of exposure,
• Environment conditions,
• Other noise sources, such as for example the number of machines are other machining work in
the vicinity.
Furthermore, permitted exposure levels may vary from one country to another.
The information provided herein is nevertheless sufficient to allow machine users to better assess risks

CHAPTER 3 – Machine description and technical data
The machine is not designed to be used in line with other machines. The material to be machined
is loaded and unloaded automatically onto the machine work surfaces.
The machine has been designed for machining wooden pieces or similar materials, whose
characteristics are defined in the technical data sheet. The processing occurs at predefined
operator workstations, where the operator can carry out the loading/unloading of the materials.
During the processing, the piece is supported by support devices (i.e. clamps and/or user-built
equipment), placed on the support surface (TABLE). The processing is performed by tools fixed on
a 5-axes machining head. The machine is designed for single-head operation.
The oversized the beams allows for wide sideways movements of the heads (X axis).
The elevated dynamics of the TWIN work station derives from the use of precision reducers with
no backlash and that require no periodic adjustments, as well as from the perfect automatic
lubrication "from the inside out". In addition to traditional programming systems, the DOUBLE JET
work station may be programmed using the exclusive Bacci PITAGORA Software, which best takes
advantage of the elevated machining dynamics, thereby reaching exceptional performance yields.
• Wood (hardwood, plywood, block board, wood strips, engineered woods, laminar woods,
hollow cored woods).
• Wood derivatives (hardboard, MDF, OSB) or similar materials*.
• Materials defined as plastics or composites, that is polymers (for example, PVC, ABS,
PMMA, Lexan), resins (for example glass fiber reinforced plastics), thermoplastic materials
(meaning materials resulting from treated polymers) and rubber materials.
* similar materials: materials that have machining parameters for milling, boring and cutting that are
comparable to the machining parameters for wood materials (for example: urea resins, PVC, ...)

TYPE DESCRIPTION
Minimum length 210 mm
Maximum width 150 mm (200 on request)
Maximum height 60 mm (100 on request)
Data regarding piece machinability must be calculated each time, case by case, taking into
account the maximum movements that may be carried out by the working unit used for machining,
the position of the piece on the work table, the size of the tools and the space taken up by the
other groups present on the working unit.
Before starting machining, always check that the piece is held firmly and blocked properly.
Minimum sizes are easy to define in that the gripping intensity of the vacuum holding system
depends on piece porosity, thickness and size.
Moreover, the minimum gripping intensity is different for each type of tool used.
In any event, the manufacturer PAOLINO BACCI S.r.l. is available for further information.

CHAPTER 3 – Machine description and technical data
The machine body is made up of a strongly ribbed, stabilized steel structure, of considerable
section, to ensure maximum stiffness and straightness over time, under any load conditions.
On the machine body, the strut sliding guides along the X-axis are mounted [1].
The strut (1, Z-axis) is the set of devices that allow the tools to machine the workpiece.
It is made up of a support and movement structure for the revolving, spindle-holder machining
head [2], on which the tools are mounted. The head slides along the vertical direction and rotates
around its A and B axes. Such rotating movements are continuous and interpolated, and are
controlled without any backlashes or periodical calibrations, by two precision gearmotors.
As for the linear axes, the sliding occurs on oversized roller bearings shoes, to ensure absolute
stiffness and reliability.
Chap. 3
- 9/28 -
TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
All movements are controlled by brushless motors (no need for maintenance) and high-precision,
preloaded-balls, recirculation screws that allow travel speed up to 100 m/min.
The lubrication of all screws and shoes is automatic, numerically controlled and monitored by
control sensors during the travel.
As for the rotating axes, the two rotating movements of the head (B and C axes) are continuous
and interpolated, and are controlled without any backlashes or periodical calibrations, by two
precision gearmotors.
Type 2+2:
It consists of two electrospindles with double exit per side, arranged in superimposed cross. Each

CHAPTER 3 – Machine description and technical data
Whatever the head used, through the “Power Control” function, the NC slows down the speed of
the axes when the absorbed power exceeds 160% of rated power. All the (high-power)
electrospindles are driven by an electronic inverter, with rotating speed from 0 to 24.000 rpm, and
10 Hp power (18.000 rpm for higher power).
It is advisable to equip the machine with the second (optional) inverter, to speed up the passage
from one spindle to the next (from 6-7 sec to 1 sec).
The electrospindles are capable of both left-handed and right-handed rotation. La potenza
massima viene erogata già a 12.000 giri/minuto e viene mantenuta costante fino a 24.000
giri/minuto
Standard configuration:
The high-rigidity and high-precision BCK shaft with taper shank is fitted onto the spindle without the
use of a clamp.
It is supplied complete with ring nut, counter ring nut and tightening wrench.
Chap. 3

TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
Upon request, the work center can be equipped with a numerically controlled tool changer
(additional interpolated axis) without any pneumatic movement, in order to ensure maximum
precision and reliability. The tool-holder movement occurs without any kind of backlash or
interference, thanks to an extremely accurate gearmotor (the same used for the rotating
movements of the machining head).
The maximum diameter of the tools which can be housed in the tool changer is 200 mm.
The tool changer may be equipped, depending on specific request, with “ISO 30” or “HSK63F” tool
fittings.
The tool-holder is provided with dust protection and can be 6 or 16 positions; it is mounted on an
independent structure located aboard the machine.

CHAPTER 3 – Machine description and technical data
The TWIN work center is equipped with two independent work tables [1], that are numerically
controlled and movable along the Y axis (height from the floor for loading/unloading = 1050 mm)
for oversize processing and translation: in this way, the head can operate in conditions of
maximum stiffness and therefore accurately.
The planar support surface of each table is made up by two steel shelves with adjustable center
distance [2].
The shelves are capable of depression and the surface has a grid of 50 x 50 mm.
On both the long sides of the shelf two dovetail millings exist, that allow anchoring of the pneumatic
presser, easily adjustable along the Y-axis, for optimal locking.

• by adjusting the shelves at a distance less than the length of the workpieces, to process the
ends of short elements without having to lift the pieces, to avoid collision.
• by distancing the shelves to the maximum, to let the machining head enter between the
shelves, to machine the internal sides.
• to drill from the bottom up, even at central positions of the piece.
• to machine very long pieces, by placing the shelves parallel to the X-axis.
• to halve the number of counterprofiles.
• to halve the setup time.
The two tables can be synchronized by the numeric control software, for machining very long
pieces. This operating mode is defined as “TANDEM processing”.
Chap. 3
- 15/28 -
TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
Made up of aluminum, variable size, 50 mm grid and equipped with lids and threaded holes, it can
be mounted directly on the TGV or its supports, to facilitate locking of flat-base pieces, and for
machining the upper side of the workpiece.
The patented “TGV” variable geometry tables described above may be mounted on continuously
rotating aluminum boards, around a vertical interpolated axis (additional “A” interpolated axis). The
max center distance of the shelves is 1170 mm and their length is 1130 mm.
Due to the rotation, all the 4 sides of the table may be turned toward the machining head;
therefore, it is not only possible the complete machining of the 5 sides of a workpiece, but also the
positioning of more details on the same counterprofile, hence reducing the setup time.
The rotating table also allows to increase the contouring dimensional capacity up to 1800 mm.
In this kind of table, the center distance of the shelves is interpolated and numerically controlled
along the “X” direction. This allows coaxial, mirrored, simultaneous machining, therefore halving
the processing time. The two shelves can be positioned by the numerical controller at a maximum
opening of 1185 mm, and remain fixed during machining.
Chap. 3
- 16/28 -
CHAPTER 3 – Machine description and technical data
The tilting TGV shelves may be added to standard TGV tables (without TGV-TRC or TGV-CN),
manually operated by means of a handwheel, equipped with a specific measuring siko, around the
Y-axis (from 0° to +90° or -90°); this allows to:
• Place curved workpieces (concave or convex) without the need for complex piece holders.
• By automatically tilting also the pressers fitted to the tilting shelves, the piece can be locked
perfectly in line, without any need for marking its surfaces.
In place of one of the tilting TGV shelves, on the machine tables a headstock/tailstock device can
be mounted, with numerically controlled rotation, interpolated with the remaining machine axes.
This device allows any kind of machining on the 4 long sides of the piece.
Chap. 3
- 17/28 -
TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
The standard version of the machine is equipped with 4 pneumatic pressers (2 for each table)
easily anchored to the shelves by means of dovetail guides, for optimal locking.
For special applications (press-curved wood) specific pneumatic pressers can be supplied, with
holding power up to 2000 kg. They also can be positioned on the long sides of the TGVs.
Further possibilities for special applications are special pneumatic pressers, adjustable in height,
for locking the pieces without any need for making counterprofile piece-holders.

Suction cups of different sizes are also available. The cups are easily placed along the TGV arm,
by means of the dovetails grooves.
If necessary, the suction cups may also be equipped with a little lifting piston, to avoid scratching
the workpiece.
Finally, vacuum pumps are available, of several sizes (100, 165, 200, 250 m3/h) and characteristics

TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
The following paragraphs provide the main information on the preparation of the machine for transport or
shifting. Certain machine parts are actually disassembled before transport to facilitate handling or to
reduce the maximum dimensions of the machine. Thus the maximum height of the machine is reduced
less than 2.5 m and the machine can be transported in a standard truck or inside a container.
The following paragraphs also include the main information on how to handle the machinery; they make
reference to the procedures to adopt, the means used and safety measures.
Given the specific nature of operations, it is obligatory to employ informed and trained personnel who will
work using hoisting means and will be aware of the operational and safety procedures to follow when
handling loads.
Before starting the transport of the machine and its components, consult the shipment list for information
on sizes.
During the loads hoisting and handling operation it is OBLIGATORY to abide by the following rules:
• IT IS OBLIGATORY that all load hoisting and handling be carried out only by specialized and
authorized personnel.
• IT IS OBLIGATORY to use personal protective equipment (PPE), such as safety footwear, work
wear, gloves for protection against crushing, safety helmet and harness for height work.
• IT IS OBLIGATORY that only personnel authorized for load handling work in the work area, in
compliance with common safety regulations that require safety areas around suspended loads,
lift-truck and/or moving overhead traveling cranes.
IT IS FORBIDDEN:
• Parts weighing more than 25 kg must not be handled manually. The barycenter for these parts is
shown on the part itself and they are fitted for hoisting by means of appropriate accessories
(harness, ropes, eyebolts, anchor bolts, .....).
• Use only ropes or chains that allow guiding the load while standing at a safe distance.
• Except for during stop and start, handling must take place without speeding up or slowing down
the load movement and avoiding jolts or impulse-type movements.
Chap. 4
- 6/20 -
CHAPTER 4 – Installation
• Before hoisting the load completely, always check that hoisting is aligned with the barycenter of
the load being hoisted; if necessary, adjust the position of the hoisting equipment or redistribute
the loads.
• During horizontal movements, avoid pitching as much as possible, especially during movement
start-up or stop.
• Changes in direction must take place after a full stop from load standstill.
• As far as possible, the hoisted load must be kept away from obstacles and as closet o the ground
as possible.
• If the case bears the symbols shown below, crossed out, that type of hoisting for the load in
question is expressly prohibited.
• To rest the machine onto the platform of a truck or on the ground temporarily, the resting surface
must first be equipped with wood strips, all of equal height, positioned so as to provide a stable
resting surface and avoid damage to machine parts (where possible, rest the machine on its
side).
• The machine and or the equipment and components must be lowered to the ground slowly and
carefully, to avoid damage.
• Inspect the load hoisting equipment (hooks, harness, chains, eyebolts, anchor bolts) thoroughly
before use.
• If defects are found, replace the accessories with new ones, making sure that the replaced
hoisting equipment is put out of use definitively. Possible defects include:
o Absence or illegibility of labels bearing the load capacity;
o Presence of cuts, holes or rips on synthetic straps;
o Twisted or crushed points on ropes or metal cables;
o Signs of corrosion on metal parts;
o Abrasions and signs of wear due to excess friction on components.
• Cuts are the main cause of breaking of synthetic straps. Cuts are generally produced when the
straps rub against sharp edges on the load being handled.
• To ensure the integrity of straps, and therefore hoisting safety, we suggest inserting a soft
material along the edges of the load where it comes into contact with hoisting straps.

Based on the type and size of the components to be shipped, P. Bacci will use appropriate packing to
ensure the machine does is not damaged during shipment and up to delivery to the customer.
The machine will be shipped directly on the truck platform or inside a container, based on the distance
from the place of delivery, on customer requirements and on how long the machine will remain packed.
If the machine is to remain packed for a long time or if shipping involves crossing the sea, machine parts
subject to oxidizing (screws, chains, etc.) will be covered with a protective rust-proof substance).
Anti-humidity salts are placed inside the electrical boards to absorb possible humidity/condensation. All
precautions are taken when placing these salts to avoid contact with metal parts that may become
corroded. Based on the type of shipment, the inside of the electrical cabinet may also be packed with a
barrier bag to keep out humidity.
For load hoisting and handling, it is OBLIGATORY to always consult the respective specifications
contained in this manual.
Upon delivery of the machine, check that the packaging has not been damaged during shipment and that
the supply is conformant to the contract specifications.
If the machine has been damages, immediately notify the carrier and the Bacci technician.
Either wood or metal blocks may be used to ensure machine stability during shipment. These blocks
must all be removed.
For the entire time that the machine remains idle waiting for start-up, we recommend:
• Protecting the machine with polyethylene sheets or tarps to keep dust from covering the
mechanisms and collision-proof covers to avoid possible damage.
• Always check that storage temperatures are within the maximum and minimum temperature
range specified in the technical data and machine performance data.
All operations must be carried out by qualified personnel authorized by P. BACCI S.r.l.

CHAPTER 5 – Controls and use
• In the first case, for example for a 50 mm piece, the clamps may be adjusted so that when they
are closed the minimum space is 45 mm. This prevents the risk of being crushed, as zero stroke
is never reached when there is no piece in the clamps. However, there is a large risk of being
crushed between two pieces, if the machined piece is not removed before another rough piece is
inserted. Moreover, crushing when there is no piece in the machine is against all machine use
logic and is to be considered an extraordinary event.
• In the second case, again using a 50 mm piece as example, the clamps may be adjusted so that
the opening to insert the piece is 55 mm, and the 5 mm of space avoid the risk of inserting fingers.
This method is closer to actual machining requirements but is effective only if the rough pieces
are uniform and if they are positioned with the greatest care possible.
The importance and need to adjust the presses is a well-known fact, it is standard practice in machine
equipping and must be carried out only by the machine maintenance technician.
The risk of being crushed by the pressers is reduced by the measures adopted to attempt to contrast
possible lack of diligence with redundancy:
NOTE
DANGER!
Safety warning
Danger of the piece or tool parts flying off the machine.
An erroneous piece program or a piece program applied to a piece that is not blocked
properly may cause the tool to break and tool fragments to fly off the machine. Check the
piece program before starting machining.
Once the machine has been equipped, the operator in charge of running the machine must check that
the work cycle is executed as required. Generally, checks carried out in the original conditions are the
best. The only difference with the final cycle is that the operator holds the portable control and reduces
the machining speed using the potentiometer in order to be able to intervene quickly in the event of
programming or equipping errors, etc.

TWIN – Use and maintenance instruction manual
The setup sequence varies according to the type of workpiece support device mounted on the table. As
the machine may use support equipment made up by the customer, the customer is required to
adequately instruct the personnel responsible for machine operation about the specific workpiece
support devices used for processing.

The processing occurs with the piece supported by both support devices (Y1 and Y2 axes) that move
synchronously.
• The maintenance technician must remove the central guard located between Y1 and Y2 axes,
and enable the tandem processing in the control software, for allowing synchronous
advancement of Y1 and Y2 axis.
• Once the setup procedure is complete, the machine may be started up by following the
instructions described in section “SINGLE STEP loading/unloading (processing cycle)”.
At the end of the TANDEM processing, the maintenance technician must perform the setup for SINGLE-
STEP, loading/unloading processing. To do this, it is mandatory to reassemble the central guard and
disable the tandem processing in the software.
5.10 Programming
The machine is programmed using the PITAGORA software package, which is for programming and to
optimize all Paolino Bacci S.r.l. CNC work centers. Use of this software allows:
• Fast and easy acquisition of CN programs with maximum optimizing in terms of machine yield,
reducing programming time.
• Optimizing of programs generated by normal CAD CAM systems in terms of productivity and best
possible use of machine performance potential.
• Using the technical features of Paolino Bacci S.r.l. work centers, taking advantage of speed,
accelerations and axis power, through the advanced machining path “jerk limitation” and
“smoothing” functions, without compromising machine reliability and long service life.
PITAGORA is a pure and original WINDOWS® software based on OpenGL® graphics and a calculation
motor developed by Paolino Bacci S.r.l.,
The software creates three dimensional, dynamic images for complete collision control and CN programs
which, as they are developed using practical and intelligent tools, may be optimized to obtain maximum
performance in terms of machine yield.
For detailed information regarding the use of the PITAGORA software, please consult the specific
documents provided in ANNEX D OPERATOR INTERFACE SOFTWARE MANUAL.
The following section of the manual illustrates the main features of the PITAGORA software.

CHAPTER 6 – Maintenance
6.1 Maintenance
This chapter contains information that is essential to keep the machine in perfect working order. The
machine is designed to reduce maintenance needs to a minimum.
In order to avoid malfunctions or inconveniences, please follow the maintenance instructions provided in
this section.
MAINTENANCE NOTE
INFORMATION!
Machine A machine that is not regularly cleaned may entail risks for the operator's health. Bad
maintenance maintenance causes early wear and increases the probability of failures and
information breakdowns.
All interventions must conform to the safety guidelines and safety rules must be
rigorously complied with for the operator's integrity.
INFORMATION!
The concept of maintenance is closely linked with that of functionality. Maintenance stands for the series
of operations that must be performed for a product to remain effective and functional and meet the aims
for which it has been designed; product stands for a building, a machine, a system or a road. The
maintenance activity comprises a series of operations, such as tests, repairs, replacements of pieces or
parts of a product etc.
INFORMATION!
Lubrication maintenance operations can either be performed independently by operators, who intervene
during the work shift when a malfunction, such as low oil level, squeaking etc. arises (autonomous
maintenance intervention), or maintenance mechanics (planned maintenance intervention).
INFORMATION!
Before carrying out any maintenance operation which is not described in this manual, or in case you
have doubts on the information provided please contact Paolino Bacci S.r.L..
INFORMATION!
• All planned mechanical and electrical maintenance operations must be correctly carried out
according to the recommended timetable.
