Feeder malfunctions and how to correct them
The transport speed
of the studs in the
feeder bowl is too
slow.
Potentiometer
for transport speed is too close to “min”.
Turn the potentiometer for transport speed towards “max”.
The permitted stud fill quantity has been exceeded.
Observe the maximum stud fill quantity, remove studs again if
necessary. See chapter "6.5.1 Technical data for the UVR-300
universal feeder" on page 24.
The feeder drive is
running constantly.
T
he feeder controls are set to “Manual”. The “Automatic” control LED has
gone out.
Set the feeder controls to “Automatic”. The “Automatic” control LED
lights up.
A stud is stuck in the outlet rail. The stud cannot reach the front position
of the replaceable slide part.
Remove the trapped stud and reposition the outlet rail or stud
escapement.
A stud is not blown
out of the stud
retainer.
The proximity switch is set incorrectly or defective (blowing is not
activated).
Readjust the proximity switch or check its function (turnkey). Replace
if necessary.
The hose connection does not align with the stud retainer or the limit
stop is misaligned.
Realign the hose connection to the stud retainer, or readjust the limit
stop.
The stud retainer cannot be moved into the blow-out position (stop) as a
foreign object or stud has fallen into the main body of the escapement.
Switch off the compressed air. Switch off the device. Disassemble
the stud retainer and remove any foreign objects or studs.
The stud remains at the transition between the hose connection and the
stud feed hose.
Cleanly cut the stud feed hose and chamfer the inside to get rid of
burrs.
The pressure regulator is set too low.
Turn the pressure regulator back up in a clockwise direction.
Observe the maximum permitted pressure!
No compressed-air supply.
Check the compressed-air supply, check the compressed air
connection and switch on the compressed air source.
The stud does not
reach the welding
gun.
The compressed-air supply is not sufficient.
Regulate the pressure (observe maximum pressure).
Problems with the stud feed hose.
Check the internal diameter.
Check for damage or kinks (and radii which are too small).
Check the hose ends, chamfer the inside of the hose end if necessary.
