Setting the Output Schedules for Seam Welding
The method of setting the output waveform for seam welding by using the fade-
in/out function after displaying the SEAM screen is explained below .
⇒
Only in the FIX or FLEX mode, the waveform for seam welding can be set.
1
Setting the Output Schedules
Taking seam welding in which laser light is continuously output 100 times, as an ex-
ample, the output count of "POINT 01" to "POINT 06" and energy are set. The en-
ergy at the beginning/end of laser light output is made weaker by the fade function.
This prevents an overlapped portion at circumferential seam welding against an ex-
cessive burn and makes the welding mark of the final shot inconspicuous.
⇒
The fade function can also be set for other processes than the beginning/end of
welding.
(1) Press the "SEAM" button to display the SEAM screen.
2
Setting the Fade-in/out Function
(1) Press the "SHOT [count]" setting button of "POINT 01."
Enter the laser light output count by using the numeric keypad and then press the
ENT key. Set 0001 because of the first output count.
⇒
For "SHOT [count]" of "POINT 01", only 1 can be set.
(2) Press the "POWER [%]" setting button of "POINT 01."
Enter the laser output value (%) by using the numeric keypad and then press the
ENT key.
Set the ratio to "PEAK POWER" set on the SCHEDULE screen in the range of 0
to 150.0%.
<Note>
When the laser output value (%) is set to 0 .1% or more, the laser output peak value
(PEAK POWER x laser output value POWER [%]) cannot be set falling below the
minimum value of laser output (ML-3030AS: 0 .5 kW, ML-3015AS: 0 .25 kW) .
(3) Likewise, set "SHOT [count]" and "POWER [%]" of "POINT 02" to "POINT 06."
⇒ For "POINT 06", press the button to scroll the POINT display column to the
right. Then, it is displayed.
