Identify milling type with the GP Manager

The easiest way to recognise the type of tiller is in the GP Manager. To do this, proceed as follows.

  1. Start the GP Manager.
  2. Select "Analysis" -> "GP milling machine„.GP-Manager-Analyse-Fräse-klein-markiert
  3. You can read the type of milling machine you are using in the GP milling machine module.

Identify milling type by appearance

There are several router series, which differ at first glance in the colour of the housing.

turquoise: 100 series milling machines (GP M101, GP M102, GP M103)
blue: 200 and 400 series milling machines (GP M201, GP M202, as well as GP M401 and GP M401xxl)
grey: 300 series milling machines (GP M301, GP M302, GP M303)
red: milling machines of the 50 series (GP M151, GP M251)

100 series
GPM103

All 100 series milling machines have a turquoise-coloured housing and are connected to an external computer via the COM port.

GP M101
These milling machines have a motor from Kress or Suna, the carbon brushes of these motors must be cleaned regularly. The computer is not integrated into the router and is connected with a COM cable.

GP M102/GP M103
Both milling machines have ISA750 motors, which are maintenance-free. The computer is integrated into the router. The GP M103 can be distinguished by the fact that it has two USB sockets and a switch at the bottom left (see picture below).

200 series

All milling machines in the 200 series have a blue housing.

GP M201

300 series

All 300 series milling machines have a grey housing. All milling machines are controlled via a COM port.

Fräse gross

GP M301
The GP M301 is controlled using the GP Remote programme and connected to an external computer via a COM cable.

GP M302/GP M303
On both types of milling machine, the type plate is located at the bottom left of the milling machine (see picture below). The computer is integrated into the milling machine.

400 series

All 400 series routers have a blue housing. The difference between the GP M401 and the GP M401xxl is the size of the milling table.
401XXL_small

GP M401
The milling table of the GP M401 is 1205 mm long.

GP M401xxl
The milling table of the GP M401xxl is 1600 mm long.

50 series

All 50 series routers have a red housing and the computer is integrated into the router. The easiest way to distinguish between the two routers is by the arrangement of the buttons on the front.

The type of pressure measuring plate can be determined from the serial number. The serial number can be found on the cover of the pressure measuring plate. Depending on the type, the serial number contains one of the character sequences MS3, MS4 or MS4 B.

MS3: This is a pressure measuring plate with USB 1.1 connection. The pressure measuring plate can only be used with 32 bit operating systems.

Seriennummer-MultiSens-MS3-bearb
MS4: The pressure measuring plate has a USB 2.0 connection. The pressure measuring plate can be operated with both 32 bit and 64 bit operating systems.

Seriennummer-MultiSens-MS4-bearb
MS4 B: The pressure measuring plate is connected to the computer via Bluetooth and can be used with 32 bit and 64 bit operating systems.

You can see which scanner you have by looking at the serial number. On the scanners we supply, the serial number is always located where the power and USB cable are connected to the scanner.

After the last letter/number of the serial number you can recognise which scanner it is, the following endings are possible:

S: It is a Microtek scanner with one tube

Seriennummer-2D-Scanner-Microtek-Röhre-bearb
S2: It is a Microtek scanner with an LED

Seriennummer-2D-Scanner-Microtek-LED-bearb
P: If the serial number ends in P, it is a Plustek scanner
Number: If the serial number ends with a number, it is a Mustek scanner.

If the milling machine is milling into the table, this could have the following reasons:

Wrong zero point set in the GP Manager

After changing the cutter, you need to check the zero point. Please have a look at our support video "changing milling tool". You need to fill in the correct zero point in the GP Manager as shown in the video.

The milling tool is not tight

Please put it in tight

The milling tool is not inserted completely into the holding

Please make sure that the milling tool is put correctly into the holding. The milling tool has to look 1 cm out of the exhausting preparation.

Only applicable for milling machines of the type GP M101 (old machines)

Changing the motors of the axes.

If the milling machine mills into the table, this can have the following causes:

The zero point in the GP Manager is set incorrectly

After you have changed the milling head, you must reset the zero point. Please watch our support video "Changing the milling head". You must set the correct zero point in the GP Manager as shown in the video.

Changing the milling cutter and setting the zero point for GP M101/102/202

Changing the milling cutter and setting the zero point for GP M302

The milling head sits loosely

Please check the milling head and fasten it correctly.

The milling head is not inserted correctly

Please ensure that the milling head has been inserted correctly. The milling head must protrude 1 cm from the housing.

Only for milling machine 101 (old milling machine)

Replace the motor of the axles

 

If you only hear a noise, but the axes are not moving while running a reference drive, the steering unit of the machine is broken. The steering unit has to be changed. As this is a module, it can be changed by yourself. Please check this video to change the steering unit.

If you only hear a noise during a reference run but the milling machine does not move along the axes, the control unit is defective.

As this is a module, you can replace the module yourself with our help. Please contact our support team.

I cannot switch on power - GP M303 / GP M202 / GP M103

1.solution: Limit switch is activated

Move the table / all axes out of the end position. You can move it by hand, if the door is open. If not, please open control - options - move axes out of the limit switch in the Remote software. Then a message "please power up amplifier" appears - then please power up the amplifier first before clicking on okay.

Please Clean the inside of the milling machine.

2. solution:The security module is broken (called ISM 10)

This is a module which is next to the computer and can be changed. Together with our support, we can check if the fuse is broken or the whole security module is broken.

The limit switch is activated.

  1. Move all axes of the table from the end position. If the door is open, this can be done manually.
    With the door closed, open "Control" -> "Options" -> "Move limit switch freely" in the remote programme. The message "Please switch on the amplifier" then appears, please switch on the amplifier before clicking on "OK".
  2. Please clean the interior of the milling machine afterwards

The safety module (ISM 10) is defective

  1. The module is located next to the computer and can be replaced. Please contact GeBioM support, who will replace the module's fuse or, if the module is defective, the entire module.

If you would like to copy an existing insole for a customer because they are to receive the same insole again after a certain time (perhaps with a slightly different pad thickness or similar) or they have a second pair of shoes, this is done as follows:

Open the insert to be copied in the GP CAD module.

  1. Specify a customer
  2. Open the GP CAD module via "Analysis" -> "GP CAD"GP-Manager-Analyse-CAD-markiertOr double-click on the inserts you want to copy in the project view.
  3. You should now see the inserts you have created.GP-CAD
  4. Click on "Save".CAD-Werkzeugbox-Retten-markiert
  5. Click on "Page".CAD-Werkzeugbox-Seite-markiert
  6. Click on "Save" again.
  7. Create a new data record using the buttons at the bottom left of the GP Manager. Click on the button that looks like a leaf with an asterisk.Buttons-unten-neuer-Datensatz-markiert
  8. An empty data record will then be displayed. You can now copy the deposits saved above into this record by clicking on the "<" button next to the "Save" button.
    CAD-Werkzeugbox-zurück-markiert
  9. Click on "Page".CAD-Werkzeugbox-Seite-markiert
  10. Click on the "<" button again. The deposits are now copied to the new data record. You can use the +/- buttons at the bottom left to switch between the customer's data records.
