Connection and operation
Wire inching forward/return
When idling, wire inching can be activated by pressing
one of the keys or activated at the robot interface, if
the RWF 30 unit is used in a robot setup.
IGC (Intelligent Gas Control)
The RWF 30 unit is supplied with IGC, a function for
dynamic flow rate adjustment according to welding
job. Set the gas flow at 2-6 bar.
Calibrate the IGC flow at the remote control unit (see
user guide for detailed description).
Gas test
The gas flow test function can be activated at the
robot interface or by pressing the gas test key on
the remote control unit (see user guide for detailed
description).
Status indicator (7)
•
LED off: RWF is not active. Use robot interface or
connected torch to activate the RWF unit.
•
Flashing LED: RWF is active but not CAN-connected
to the power source. Check the CAN-mains cable
and mains plug.
•
LED on: RWF is active.
AIR Clean (1+2)
If the RWF unit is used along with an integrated robot
interface, it is possible to connect a compressor unit
for cleaning the gas nozzle. Set the compressed air and
use the robot interface for control.
Collision protection for robot controller (10)
The collision protection function enables connection
of a mechanical fuse to the robot torch. This prevents
the torch from getting out of calibration in case
of collision with a workpiece. The function is only
applicable if the RWF unit is used in an integrated
robot interface setup.
TOUCH Sensing (11)
For welded seam localization; this function is applicable if the
RWF unit is used in an integrated robot interface setup and uses
welding wire or a contact tip to create electrical contact. The
robot automatically adjusts the welded seam position prior to
arc ignition.
For exact positioning of the welding torch, it is possible to use
the Touch Sensing signal. This option is available when using
Fieldbus communication only.
When the welding wire has contact to the work piece, the
robot/controller is told so by changing the status of an output
bit. Touch sensing can also be connected to the gas nozzle.
N.B. Gas nozzle sensing is automatically enabled through a
relay when activating touch sensing. The relay will, for
safety reasons, disconnect the gas nozzle sense signal
during welding.
Activate Touch sensing by enabling the Touch sensing input bit.
E.x. For Sigma Select this is input Bit # 123. See Fieldbus
configuration file for more details.
Read the Touch sensing status output bit.
When the welding wire (or optional the gas nozzle) has contact
to work piece, while not welding:
E.x. For Sigma Select output Bit # 147 is ON when there is
contact, and OFF when no contact.
See Fieldbus configuration file for more details.
