Assembly instructions
2.3.2 Function
Torch cleaning is performed fully automatically by a rotating tool (milling cutter). The welding torch
is clamped in a holding mechanism (V-block) for this purpose. The external surface of the contact
tip nozzle and the internal surface of the gas nozzle are then cleared of weld spatter in one oper-
ation.
The cleaned gas nozzle is then wetted with silicone-free liquid weld spatter release agent to pre-
vent early deposition of new weld spatter (see
Chapter 5 Appendix ).
The spraying cycle and spraying time (quantity) are set in the robot program. The feed rate for the
cleaning tool is set on the choke in the cast block.
2.3.2.1 Stand (Pos. 1)
The stand of the TSC is made of hollow sections allowing height adjustment. The connecting line
can be passed through the hollow section. There is an opening
(3) to pass the line out of the stand
at the bottom.
This opening (3) must not gripped when adjusting the stand height as this can lead to serious
injury.
The TC 2013 is fitted as standard with an adjust-
able stand for floor assembly.
This consists of a height-adjustable rectangular
tube
(1) with a foot attachment (2) for floor
assembly.
The TC 2013 is set to minimum height on deliv-
ery.
The operator must set and then peg the optimum
height on the spot.
WARNING
Danger of crushing when adjusting stand height.
