Torchbody Xchange can be activated independently of the operating mode (internal
parameter selection, S2-step mode characteristics, Job Mode).
NOTE!
Risk of signal overlap.
This may result in problems changing the torch body.
▶
It is not recommended to activate any other signals while the Torchbody Xchange
signal is active.
▶
After deactivating the Torchbody Xchange signal, wait 3 seconds before activating
another signal.
▶
A detailed description of the program sequence can be found in the Operating
Instructions of the torch body change system.
Teach mode -
Single Bit
WARNING!
Danger from electrical current due to Teach mode being active. When Teach mode
is active, a voltage of approx. 70 V (up to 3 A) is applied to the wire electrode/
contact tip.
This may result in serious injuries or death.
▶
Do not touch the wire electrode and the contact tip when Teach mode is active.
▶
When Teach mode is active, do not touch any electrically conductive parts that are
touched by the wire electrode or the contact tip.
Teach mode can be used to create the robot program. Teach mode being activated (sig-
nal High) avoids the wire electrode becoming bent when setting up the robot.
Teach mode can be activated independently of the operating mode (internal parameter
selection, special 2-step mode characteristics, Job Mode, etc.).
Teach mode function:
= 15 mm
(0.59 inch)
-
Ensure the desired distance (Stickout) to the
workpiece (cut the wire electrode to the correct
Stickout , etc.).
< 15 mm
(0.59 inch)
-
If the distance between the gas nozzle and the
workpiece becomes smaller during robot move-
ment, the wirefeeder retracts the wire electrode –
this means that the wire electrode cannot be bent.
-
If the distance between the gas nozzle and the
workpiece becomes bigger during robot move-
ment, the wirefeeder unwinds the wire electrode
to the set Stickout .
