1.3.4. Manual mode arc welding

 

Generally, the arc welding can be carried out only when the robot is operated automatically or remotely. This function allows the robot to perform arc welding in manual mode. Under various conditions, it may provide ease of operation in repetitive welding works by setting the welding conditions.

 

The following settings should be in place to apply manual mode arc welding.

 

1.    『[F2]: System』 → 『4: Application parameter』 → 『2: Arc welding』 → 『12: Manual mode arc welding setting』 → Enable

2.    『Execution unit』 → End (2nd menu on the left of the basic screen of the teach pendant)

3.    Execute ARCON by applying the step forward motion (When the welding stops because the step forward operation discontinued in the middle of welding before ARCOFF, if the step forward motion needs to be performed again, the robot will move to the next teaching point without performing welding because ARCON will not be executed)
