Optimising the ignition characteristics for pure tungsten electrodes
This parameter can be used to improve the ignition characteristics of “pure tungsten electrodes”, for
example. The parameter is a %-value (factory-set to 20) and is changed across all JOBs.

Select Ignition Characteristics parameter
The signal lights for the selected electrode
diameter and ignition current AMP% flash for
approx. 5 seconds. The parameter value can
be optimised on the rotary transducer during
this time.
Set parameter value
Increase parameter value:
more ignition power
Reduce parameter value:
less ignition power

Optimal and fast spherical cup formation
NOTE
A conically ground tungsten electrode (approx. 35°) is generally required to form an
ideal spherical cup.

Ignition optimisation selection
The signal light of the selected needle diameter starts flashing.
Tungsten balling selection
The main current signal light flashes rapidly.
The current for tungsten balling is displayed and can be adjusted during
the process.
This function is switched off by pressing the ignition optimisation push-
button again or automatically after the set gas post-flow time has
elapsed.
NOTE
• Use a sample workpiece.
• Ignite arc with HF ignition (non-contact) and form required spherical cup for the application
in question.
