- Contact Tip: Use a contact tip SPECIAL aluminium corresponding to the diameter of the wire.
- Contact Tip: Use the specific Aluminium contact tip corresponding to the diameter of the wire.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC BRAZING WELDING FOR HIGH-TENSILE STRENGTH STEELS
These welding are recommended by car manufacturers to braze-weld high-tensile strength plates with a cuprosilicium
CusI3 wire or cuproaluminium CuAl8 wire (Ø 0.8 mm and Ø 1 mm). The welder must use a neutral gas: pure argon (Ar).
For specific gas requirements, seek advice from your gas distributor. The gas flow required s between 15 and 25 L / min.
GAS CONNECTION (FIG 3)
Connect the manometer (flowmeter) to the gas bottle (manometer not supplied with the product).For use with one
or two bottles of gas.
To connect two bottles of gas to three torches, split the pipe into 3 pieces and attach a 3-way "Y" connector. (fig 3-C )
To link a single bottle of gas with 3 torches, cut the pipe into 4 pieces and attach two 3-way "Y" connectors.
Connect each bottle to the solenoid valves in the following order:
-T1 solenoid valve to the top left (fig 3B:13)
-Spool gun solenoid to the top right (fig 3B:17)
-T3 solenoid valve to the bottom (fig 3B:16)
To avoid any gas leaks, always use the collars supplied with the product.
PROCESS OF REELS AND TORCHES ASSEMBLY (FIG 4)
Open the device trapdoor.
- Place the reel on the driving pin (fig 4:2) of the reel support.
- Adjust the reel brake (fig 4:3) to avoid the reel inertia tangling the wire when welding stops. In general, do not tighten
too much!
- The electrical roller (fig 4:4) is a double groove roller (0,6/ 0,8 and 0,8/1). The indication on the visible side of the
roller is the diameter in use. For a 0,8 wire, use the 0,8 groove.
- For the first use:
- Release the fixing screw of the wire guide.
To set the adjusting knob of the pressing rollers (fig 4:5), proceed as follow: loosen the knob fully, start the motor by
pressing the torch trigger, tighten the adjustment knob whilst pressing the trigger. Bend the wire where it comes out of
the nozzle and hold it in place to stop its progress. The setting is correct when the guide roller slides over the wire even
when it is blocked at the end of the torch. A common adjustment is the rollers command (fig 4:5) on the scale 3 for steel
and 2 for aluminium.Nb: for the aluminium wire put a minimum pressure in order not to crush the wire.
