MODEL 9 SERIES WELD HEAD  

OPERATION MANUAL 

 

5.0 ROTATION (SPEED) AUTO-CALIBRATION 

(Contd.) 

 
      Note: Some larger Model 9 series weld heads provide access to the  

                 calibration potentiometer through an access hole in the side of the  
                 housing, adjacent to the potentiometer. A nylon screw is used to plug  
                 this access hole. Removed it to gain access to the calibration 
                 potentiometer. Replace this screw when calibration is complete.

 ROTATION (SPEED) MANUAL CALIBRATION

   

      Some power supplies do not have auto calibration software. In this 

                 case, the weld head motor is manually calibrated by creating a weld 
                 program that should rotate the electrode 360 degrees. ie: 1 RPM for a 
                 total of 60 seconds, 2 RPM for a total of 30 seconds, 3 RPM for 
                 a total of 20 seconds, etc. Select a speed (RPM) and corresponding 
                 time close to or equal to the speed that you intend on welding at to 

      achieve the most accurate calibration.  
 
5.3 Calibration must be run in the “TEST” mode. Create a one level weld 
      schedule at your selected RPM. Amperage and pulse rate settings 

                 may be set to any value, as during rotation calibration no arc will be 
                 established. Set the rotation mode to “CONT” (continuous rotation).  
                 Set rotation delay and downslope times to 0.0.
