8.1 Setting THICKNESS
A function that selects a guideline welding condi-
tions (current and voltage for main welding) by
specifying the thickness of workpieces to be
welded.
Note
About guideline welding conditions (welding current and voltage) the THICKNESS settings func-
tion automatically selects
•
With THICKNESS settings, it is possible to set
welding conditions for the initial welding and
crater welding, however, those set values
need to be adjusted according to the welding
conditions for main welding.
•
Values automatically obtained by THICKNESS
settings are not guaranteed values. They are
indications obtained through the use of
brand-new parts under the environment of
our testing station.
•
Use them as indications. Fine-tune them to
suit for your workpiece.
•
The standard settings are recommendation
values for the case of fillet welding (joint
type) at 0.3 m/min (welding speed). The leg
length becomes 70 % when the thickness is
12 mm. The thinner the workpiece is the
larger the leg length becomes. And the
thicker the workpiece is, the smaller the leg
length becomes.
•
It is possible to adjust the recommended
welding speed (see section “
114.)
