Caution
When they are not being used and held by the support between
the carriages of the machine, the facing tool and the heating
element have to be inserted by their bars meant to hold them,
into the respective opening of the tabletop support (see draw-
ing to the right).
4.7 Welding Process
With or without calibrating/zeroing the carriage position (see at the end
of Sect. 4.1), the machine returns to the default screen (see Display 3).
If technical welding parameters or traceability data have to be changed
or entered and this has not been done before, it is still possible at this
point after pressing the
button (see Sect. 4.3 and 4.4). If it is not
needed, the welding process, with the current welding parameters and
traceability data, is started by pressing the
button.
Info
Possibly the welder has to wait for the heating element to
reach the nominal temperature. This would then be indicated
on the screen. If the temperature difference between actual and
nominal is large, an additional delay may occur during which
the final temperature is adjusted.
When the welding process was started, the screen first shows a message
telling that the automatic mode is either on or off, that is, moving the
movable carriage either requires the carriage mover button in the lower
left corner of the screen just to be pressed once to start them and then
they are performed automatically, or require the button to be pressed all
the time for the movement to be performed for its full duration (refer to
the explanation of the automatic mode in the table in Sect. 4.2).
Important
The carriage mover button in the lower left corner of the screen
(see Displays 10, 11) that has to be held down to perform an
action involving movement of the carriage — automatic mode
off — or to be touched to start that movement — automatic
mode on — may be represented in three different ways:
= The next action involving movement will be to close the
carriage in on the other one, towards the point of jointing.
= The next action involving movement will be to move the
carriage apart, away from the point of jointing.
= At this point, the welder has to confirm a step of the pro-
cess and, as a consequence, the movable carriage will move
automatically (with automatic mode both on and off) for a short
distance or not at all (with automatic mode off, rather than the
round carriage mover button with a check mark in the lower
left corner, the key-shaped OK/confirmation button
in the
upper right corner of the screen will be used for this kind of
confirmation).
4.7.1 Facing the Component Butts
The welding process starts by the insertion of
the facing tool, then the clamping of the com-
ponents (see Display 10). For the machine to
switch a next step, the preceding step has to be
confirmed using the carriage mover button (see
the “Impotant” note at the beginnig of Sect. 4.7).
Important
Make sure that the plate carrying the
facing tool and the heating element is
set on a surface where it can sit safely
and does not slide throughout the entire
welding process.
