SYMPTOM. ANOMALY.
PROBABLE CAUSE.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION.
THE WELDING START IS VERY
AGGRESSIVE.
THERE ARE MANY
PROJECTIONS.
Aluminium is being welded with a drawing
problem, which causes incorrect arc ignition as
the wire is slowed down on knocking against
the piece.
Examine the drawing process. Prevent the gun from making
“knots”, keeping it in a straight line. The wire must not be
slowed down when it knocks against the piece
The wire length at onset of welding process is
too long.
Correct arc end operation. Do not strike too long a final
wire length.
SPECIALIZED PERSONNEL MUST CARRY OUT ANY WORK ON THE EQUIPMENT.
BOTH AT THE BEGINNING AND END OF A REPAIR CHECK THE EQUIPMENT INSULATION LEVELS.
DISCONNECT THE ELECTRONIC BOARDS WHEN MEASURING THE INSULATION.
BLOW THE INSIDE OF THE EQUIPMENT WITH COMPRESSED AIR.
The insulation-measuring device will have 500 V D.C. and will be a pplied to the following points of the circuit:
- Supply-Earth: Ra > 50 Mohms.
- Welding-Ea rth: Ra > 50 Mohms.
- Supply-Welding: Ra > 50 Mohms.
BEFORE TURNING THE EQUIPMENT ON, ENSURE THAT IT IS OFF LOAD.
DO NOT OPERATE THE ON/OFF SWITCH WITH AN ELECTRICAL LOAD CONNECTED TO THE
WELDING CONNECTORS.
