WARNING!
Danger from incorrect operation
Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and damage.
Before you start using the VR 1530, you MUST have read and completely understood the
following documents:
► the VR 1530 “Operating Instructions” manual
► the “Operating Instructions” manual for the power source, particularly the “Safety rule
CAUTION!
Risk of injury while the lid is open for maintenance or retooling work to be carried
out.
Work that is carried out incorrectly can cause serious injury or damage.
► Ensure that there is no risk of anybody accidentally starting up the VR 1530‘s drive
components by pressing the feeder inching button(s) on the control panel, on the VR
1530 itself or on any other system add-ons.
Machine concept
With its process-oriented control of the wirefeed system, the VR 1530 unreeling-type wire
-
feeder takes the intelligent power-source concept a step further. To facilitate access to the
wirespool for re-loading, this is often located a long distance away from the welding loca
-
tion. The VR 1530 has been specially designed to meet the requirements presented by just
this situation. In order to achieve extremely constant wirefeed, even with very long hose
-
packs, the VR 1530 is used as an additional drive unit between the unreeling device (bulk
wire container) and whichever version of the VR 1500 wirefeeder you happen to be using.
In cases where there are long wirefeed travel distances and/or where large wirespools are
being used, the VR 1530 ensures highly accurate wirefeed and very exact reproducibility
of the welding results.
Overview
The VR 1530 -11 / -12 / -22 / -30 unreeling-type wirefeeder can be used with the following
power sources:
-
Trans Synergic 4000 / 5000
-
TransPuls Synergic 3200 / 4000 / 5000
-
Trans Synergic 7200 / 9000 (with two Trans(Puls) Synergics operated in parallel)
-
TransPuls Synergic 7200 / 9000 (with two Trans(Puls) Synergics operated in parallel)
-
“TimeTWIN digital” process
The VR 1530-KD has been specifically designed for operation in conjunction with the KD
7000 unreeling device.
Areas of utilisa
-
tion
The VR 1530‘s good wirefeed properties and compact design give it a very wide and varied
area of utilisation. The VR 1530 was designed specifically for use in automated and robot
applications where steel, aluminium, CrNi and CuSi wires are welded. The VR 1530 is par
-
ticularly suitable for applications requiring high-precision wirefeed.
