1.3.2. High-speed movement

 

While the program and the arc welder is in playback mode, the robot moves very slowly in the welding section, which may cause problems when performing a pilot operation to identify the working position of the robot. In order to resolve the problem, this function allows the robot to move at higher speeds than the recorded speed in the welding section.

 

This function is allowed only during the step forward and backward operation in manual mode.

 

When the high speed movement function is applied, the robot movement speed is not limited by『Max. speed in the step forward/backward operation』. In addition, it is possible to set and unset functions in the welding section regardless of whether the high speed movement function is applied or not. (Ex.: It is possible to set the high-speed movement function in the middle of the function being applied in the welding section.

 

The operation method is as below.

 

(1)   Manual maximum speed step forward/backward

①     Shortcut key: [Shift]+[FWD]/[BWD]

②     Moving speed: Manual max. speed

 

(2)   [SHIFT] key change handling in moving at high speed

①     High-speed movement [SHIFT] key release: The robot stops and moves in the step forward/backward motion at the teaching speed.

②     Entered by using the [SHIFT] key during step forward/backward at the teaching speed: Move at the maximum manual speed after the robot stops.
