Figure 8.4 Servo gun welding function of teach pendant

 

There is a user interface for servo gun welding inside of the teach pendant, as shown in [Figure 8.4]. If servo gun axis is not assigned as an external axis, <Air Gun> (meaning pneumatic gun) will be displayed instead of <Servo Gun>. Buttons related to the servo gun can be used only when servo gun is assigned.

 

The presence of the welding point and gun number can be selected by clicking the [Weld] button. 3 parameters should be set for servo gun welding, including gun number, welding condition number and welding sequence number. These 3 parameters can be set by using [Weld], [Cond] and [Seq] button of the teach pendant. When [Weld] button is set to Welding Off, [Cond] and [Seq] buttons cannot be used.

 

Servo gun can be set to be spread to “OPEN” or “SEMIOPEN” location by using [po1] and [po2] button. Of course, this setting is possible on pass points, not welding points. For example, if the current step is a welding point of Gun 2, [po1] can be set to “OPEN” or “SEMIOPEN”, but [po2] button cannot be used.
