Installation instructions:
Precise installation is required for the stand or pivot arm so that a robot can mill or
change an electrode cap with precision.
The milling tool can be reached directly from the welding robot. Long distances can
unnecessarily extend the cycle time of the entire system. Review gun dimensions to
ensure accessibility of the electrode caps to the Milling tool.
Position the tool as indicated in Figure 9 so that the lugs or wings from the blade holder
fit into the machine gear and turn 90 degrees. Test that the tool is in place by pushing
on the backside of the holder. The holder should be secured and should not be
dislodged if the lugs are in place.
If the holder of the milling tool is equipped with the blue ring, ensure the ring is
snapped in place to the holder. Alternate holders are available without the blue ring
(Figure 10).
Ensure there are no collisions with welding parts, robots or other moving elements in
the welding area. As a check, the entire workflow should be simulated.
All machine connections including cables, hoses and pipelines, should be laid so that
they do not cause a tripping hazard. Laying cables and hoses with prescribed bending
radiuses are to be observed to avoid leaks and electrical contact.
Ensure all fasteners are secured.
Ensure accessibility for maintenance and repair work is to be observed.
Additional supply and electrical connections:
Filtered compressed air for the chip removal at 6-8 bar.
Supply for the three-phase drive depending on the device (380-575 VAC / 50-60 Hz).
Current protection 8 amps.
Lines with 24 VDC for motor switches, valves, as well as rotation speed and limit
position switches.
Optional: Remote bus system e.g. Interbus-S.
