Product Overview: The Artos C-4 is a pneumatic measuring and cutoff machine used for automatically cutting wire, cable, tubing, or strapping to preset lengths. It features adjustable feed rate and acceleration/deceleration controls, batch and totalizing counters for production tracking, and thumbwheel switches for length programming. The machine employs a motor-driven feed mechanism with pneumatic blade actuation, controlled by a main circuit board and separate motor drive board. It operates on 120VAC input with internal 24VDC, 5VDC, and ±12VDC power rails. Common applications include wire harness manufacturing, cable assembly operations, and other industrial processes requiring repetitive precision cutting.

Common Failures
Several common issues have been identified with the Artos C-4 and C-5 Measuring and Cutoff Machines. Common symptoms include units failing to power on, counters malfunctioning due to dirty or defective switches, various wiring issues, and defective components such as transistors and optocouplers. Problems with switches, the power supply, relays, and thumbwheels have also been reported, causing issues like inconsistent cutting operations and motor engagement failures.
Repair Approach
Repairs typically involve cleaning, rewiring, and replacing defective components such as batch counters, power supplies, transistors, and wiring. Troubleshooting includes diagnostic testing, cleaning of contacts, and realignment or replacement of problematic components. Preventative measures are also taken, such as replacing capacitors and other components that show signs of wear over time.
Testing & Quality Assurance
Testing is performed post-repair, including burn-in tests with and without load to verify functional reliability over extended use. Repairs are confirmed through various cycle tests and verifying that functional components return to normal operation. The testing processes ensure that all operational parameters, such as wire cutting lengths and unit cycle counts, are consistent and accurate following repair work.
