Console operation of extractor (when powered by SmartBench)

You can only operate your extractor from the console if it is powered by SmartBench. 

Click here to find out if your extractor meets SmartBench’s power requirements, and how to connect it to SmartBench.

Extractor setup

Make sure the extractor is connected to SmartBench and its power switch is set to on.

A: Extraction power switch

Switching the extractor on and off at the start and end of each job.

You don’t need to do anything for this. SmartBench will automatically turn the extractor on at the start of a job, and off at the end.

SmartBench will check to see if the spindle comes on during the job to determine whether extraction is needed. 

If there is no spindle command in the job file, it won’t turn on the extraction.

Switching the extractor on from the Console

In the Console menu, click on the “Pro” App

Click on the manual move tab on the left side of the screen.

Once on the manual move screen, you can toggle extraction on and off as you need.

You can check that everything is connected and switched on at the start of a job by toggling the extraction and spindle buttons on the Console.
