WARNING
Prior to reconditioning the impact pins, you should read the appropriate
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to become familiar with handling and/or
reconditioning hazards. Always wear a respirator, safety glasses, and gloves
when grinding metal. Use the appropriate precautions, coolant, and abrasive
for the pin material and the grinding techniques described in the MSDS.
CAUTION
If your equipment arrives during cold weather, allow the components to warm
up for several hours before opening the containers. Exposing the equipment to
room temperatures may cause condensation in the units.
Do not connect or disconnect the marker cable while the controller power is
ON. Turn power off before connecting/disconnecting the cable.
Mounting holes for the TMP1700 marking head are M6 x 1.00. Mounting bolts
must extend into the head at least 0.430 in. (11mm) and at most 0.675 in.
(17mm).
The impact pin and pin cartridge do not require lubrication. The plastic pin
cartridge may become obstructed if lubricated.
Use caution when cleaning the shield assembly. Always wipe debris toward the
cartridge to avoid pushing contaminants between the plates and into the
marker.
The impact plate, located between the cartridge and cartridge base, is held in
place by the pin cartridge. Use caution when removing the pin cartridge to
prevent the impact plate from falling out.
The impact plate will only install one way. Do not force installation.

Section 1
Installation
1.1 OVERVIEW
This section documents the installation of the TMP1700 marking head. The TMP1700 marking head contains a pneumatic pin
that uses air pressure to drive the pin from and return the pin to the pin cartridge. The TMP1700 is designed to be securely
mounted to a tooling fixture or tool post with the impact pin pointing downward. Other mounting configurations are
acceptable, provided the optional boot is installed to prevent debris from entering the marking head cavity. Please consult
Telesis Customer Support for more information. The TMP1700 may be used with various Telesis controllers. Installation of
the marking head is almost identical. If variation do exist, they will be clearly identified within the text to inform you of the
differences.
1.2 SPECIFICATIONS
The marking equipment design and specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
Notes:
1) Weight listed does not include pin, pin cartridge or any support tooling.
2) Air consumption is dependent on the type of pin being used.

TMP1700 Installation & Maintenance
Condensation. The process of compressing air creates heat. The compressed air cools as it travels through the lines away
from the compressor. The cooling process causes any moisture in the air to condense. Condensation is common in hot
climates or when air lines are routed outside during cold weather. Condensation creates problems in the air valves and
small openings within the marking head. Because you can never remove all the contaminates from an air line, a filtering
system should be installed as close to the marker as possible. This reduces the opportunity for moisture in the supply air to
condense.
Filtering. The least expensive way to filter the air is to use a coalescing filter. This type of filter causes a cyclone effect.
Swirling air and the resulting centrifugal force throws the oil and moisture particles to the outside. There it condenses on a
wall and runs down to the bottom of the bowl in the less turbulent, quiet area. The coalescing filter removes solid particles
(down to 0.3 microns). If the collection of contaminants becomes too great, particles can be picked up and placed in
suspension in the air. Therefore, Telesis recommends an automatic drain on the coalescing filter. In addition to aerosol
particles, the air may contain dust, dirt, and metal shavings. If the air is very dirty, a pre-filter can be used to remove the
larger (5 micron) particulate matter.
Air Flow. The cyclone effect (see above) cannot occur if there is little or no flow of air. Telesis markers use much less air at
idle than when marking. So it’s during the idle time that the aerosol particles have a chance to cool and condense on the
walls of the cartridge and pin. Most filter manufactures recommend a minimum air flow of 20% of the maximum rated flow
for their equipment to be effective. This is not a problem during marking because the rate of air consumption is relatively
high. A controlled orifice opening (open to the air) can be constructed to keep the flow during idle at or above 20% of the
flow rate. The controlled orifice should be located as close as possible to the marking head.
Parameters. The following parameters are easily achievable with a pre-filter and most coalescing filters.
• Humidity non-condensing
• 99.97% of the sub-micron particles removed
• 0.75 micron largest aerosol particle
• 0.30 micron largest solid particle
• 40° to 120°F (4.4° to 48.9°C)
• 5 micron pre-filter with an auto drain.
Practices. Follow these practices when installing and operating the marker to improve the quality of the air and increase
the reliability of your marking equipment.
• Install the filter as close as possible to the marking head, never more than 50 ft. (15 m)
• Use Poly-Flo® tubing downstream of filter with brass or plated fittings
• Use copper, brass or stainless tubing upstream of the filter
• Do not use iron pipe or iron fittings.
• Do not use Teflon® tape
• Liquid Teflon® is permissible except:
– on poly-carbonate plastic threaded holes
– on the first thread of male fittings
• Blow down the air system after installation and before use (at least two minutes at full flow).
• Use a top tap off the main line with a drip leg (see Plumbing Factors).
• Do not use poly-carbonate bowls (they will crack when used with synthetic oils).
• Always use the largest available feed line and the shortest available run.

Pins should be reconditioned at the first sign of mark degradation or when the pin point becomes noticeably flattened. The
length of service between reconditioning will depend on the pin material, the material being marked and the depth of the
mark desired. Table 2-5 lists the lengths for new and reconditioned pins. The pin cone angle and length are illustrated in
Figure 2-2.
Note: For best results, carbide pins should not be sharpened to a fine point. Doing so will cause the point to chip. Sharpen
carbide pins so that a very small radius tip (or flattened tip) remains.
2-10 33478G
TMP1700 Installation & Maintenance
The minimum pin lengths allow for only about a 3% reduction in the total length during reconditioning. Therefore, only the
smallest amount of material necessary to obtain a sharp point should be removed. Several small cuts should be taken, instead
of larger ones, to avoid removing more material than necessary and to avoid overheating the pin.
WARNING
Prior to reconditioning the impact pins, you should read the appropriate
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to become familiar with handling and/or
reconditioning hazards.
Always wear a respirator, safety glasses, and gloves when grinding metal. Use
the appropriate precautions, coolant, and abrasive for the pin material and the
grinding techniques described in the MSDS.
If you need assistance in obtaining the current MSDS sheets for the impact
pins, contact Telesis Customer Support.
1. Remove the impact pin / pin cartridge from the marking head. (see replacement procedure)
2. Mount the pin in the fixture, making sure that the pin is supported near its point. This fixture must be capable of
rotating the pin during the grinding operation.
5. Keep the abrasive wheel dressed for a straight conical-shaped point on the pin.
7. Grind the pin to a sharp point, while continually rotating the pin.
8. Make several light “cuts” to reduce chatter and keep the pin cool. This reduces pin material waste.
9. Install the impact pin / pin cartridge onto the marking head. (see replacement procedure)
