Press System Overview
An
iQ Series
Ultrasonic Press System ES consists of
these components: the
iQ
generator, press (with thruster,
switches, controls, cables, transducer, booster, horn, and
fixture) and
iQ Explorer II
software. The software allows
the operator to control the system either remotely or at the
press location.
The
iQ Series ES
generator has rugged internal ultrasonic
circuitry and ensures a continuous resonant frequency lock
at the start of each weld.
The generator’s compact size allows multiple units to be
placed into an industrial equipment cabinet. This genera-
tor will operate at the same international line voltage input
specifications as the other generators of this product fam-
ily (unless the 120V option is installed). It also includes an
RFI line filter that passes FCC, CE, UL, and CSA testing
for global applications.
Key Generator Features
• The
Generator Interface
has a 5" LCD color display
and soft keys that enhance the intuitive menu naviga-
tion.
•
Digital Control
of all power supply functions, includ-
ing digital frequency synthesis, and parameters allows
for unique configurations and allows for future up-
grades.
• Process Parameters
such as frequency, amplitude
and power are all updated at a 0.5 ms rate.
•
Pulse Width Modulation
incorporates patented
circuitry giving the power supply the ability to
efficiently change and maintain the output amplitude.
This makes it possible to start large horns with reduced
power. It also provides more power-efficient switch-
mode generator operation and increased reliability.
•
Linear Ramp Up/Down
circuitry allows the acoustic
stack to be brought to operating amplitude smoothly,
minimizing start-up surges and undue stress to stack
and generator. This circuitry also allows decreases to
amplitude as the weld cycle ends. The stack is brought
down from its maximum operating amplitude smooth-
ly, reducing shock stress.
•
Digi-Trac Tuning
tracks the resonant frequency of the
acoustic stack (horn, booster, and transducer) and ad-
justs the generator output frequency to match it. This
is done for every weld cycle and eliminates the need
to manually tune the generator.
•
Line Voltage Regulation
automatically maintains
constant amplitude regardless of line voltage devia-
tion. The available output power is maintained
with any voltage input within the specified range.
This provides consistent system performance re-
gardless of line voltage fluctuations. It also elimi-
nates the need for bulky, external constant–voltage
transformers.
•
Load Regulation
provides constant ultrasound
amplitude automatically regardless of power draw.
The ultrasonic output amplitude level is held to
within ±1% to provide weld process consistency
and reduced weld cycle times.
•
Wide Line Voltage Operation
means that stan-
dard systems will operate worldwide within their
standard AC voltage ranges.
•
Flow Through Cooling Tunnel
with a matched
high–performance heat sink and thermostatically
controlled fan reduces thermal gradients and in-
creases component life.
•
AC Power Inrush
protection reduces electri-
cal stress on the internal components by protect-
ing them from AC power startup transient current
surges.
•
Multiple Electronic Overload
protection circuits
prevent instantaneous component failure in the
event of extreme output overload conditions. The
overload power limit is based on the actual true RMS
power output level.
•
Process Limits
include: distance, weld peak force,
position, weld energy, and peak power. These pro-
grammable limits provide the means to adapt to a
wide variety of welding applications.
•
Rear Panel Expansion Slot
is available to allow
for custom configurations for OEM and cost effec-
tive solutions.
•
RS-232 Serial Configuration Port
is used for
field software upgrades, troubleshooting and ad-
vanced hardware setup with optional PC-based
configurator.
• CE Certification
means that the system meets the
required European standards to be sold and used in
Europe (high line voltage models only).
•
ISO 9001 Certification
means that this system has
been manufactured to high quality standards and
assures you of manufacturing excellence.
•
TUV Certification
- TÜV Rheinland certifies
Dukane products comply with applicable UL (Un-
derwriters Laboratories) and CSA (Canadian Stan-
dards Association) requirements.
