2.19. ARC_COND

 

Description

The ARC_COND statement is a command to set the current, voltage, speed, weaving width, and weaving frequency for arc welding. The user can also change the condition, linearly ranging from the current ARC_COND condition to the next ARC_COND condition. In other words, the interpolation conditions will be applied in consideration of the left direction distance / right direction distance (gap), and the welding speed and weaving width will be automatically calculated based on the gap.

The parameters to be set by this command can be individually designated and set by reading the desired welding condition database and designating the WDB number.

Grammar

  ARC_COND <Welding condition change method>, <Welding speed>, <Left direction distance>, <Right direction distance>, <Weaving frequency>, <Current>, <Voltage>

  ARC_COND <Welding condition change method>, WDB#=<Welding condition database>

If four points are set as the interpolation conditions as above, it will be possible to change the weaving width and welding speed by performing linear interpolating variably according to the sensed gap, instead of the set left and right weaving widths. In the figure, the circles represent the welding speed and width interpolated for the reference conditions expressed in dotted lines with regard to the current gap.
