About Fronius TPS 320i / 400i / 500i / 600i IRC5 interface
This guide describes the ABB Robotics IRC5 interface for:
• Fronius TPS 320i/400i/500i/600i with RI-FB Inside/i interface
The power source must meet the following requirements:
• Firmware 1.7.4 or above
• RI FB Inside/I interface for D-Net / Profi-Bus / Profi-Net or EtherNet/IP
• Firmware 2.3.0 or above is needed for Job mode with correction.
Overview
The MIG/MAG power sources TPS 320i, TPS 400i, TPS 500i and TPS 600i are
completely digitized, microprocessor-controlled inverter power sources. The
modular design and potential for system add-ons ensure a high degree of flexibility.
The devices can be adapted to any specific situation.

TPSi power sources contain a selection of welding processes, procedures and
welding characteristics that enable a wide range of materials to be processed in
the most effective way.
Summary of MIG/MAG pulse synergic welding
MIG/MAG pulse synergic welding is a pulsed-arc process with controlled material
transfer. In the base current phase, the energy supply is reduced to such an extent
that the arc is only just stable, and the surface of the workpiece is preheated. In
the pulsing current phase, a precise current pulse ensures the targeted detachment
of a droplet of welding material. This principle guarantees a low-spatter weld and
precise working across the entire power range, as unwelcome short circuits with
simultaneous droplet explosion and uncontrolled welding spatter are virtually
eliminated.
Summary of MIG/MAG standard synergic welding
The MIG/MAG standard synergic welding process is a MIG/MAG welding process
across the entire power range of the power source with the following arc types:
