2 Saving a report
This function is detailed in the corresponding chapter.
Button
activates or deactivates the creation of a report.
Button
is used to view the points completed.
3 Using the different modes
Button
is used to move through the different welding modes. A
prolonged push on the mode button activates the settings mode used
to select the language, set the date and activate the warning sound for
«current too low» or «pressure too low». Buttons (
to navigate through and select the value that needs to be adjusted,
and then buttons + and - are used to increase or decrease that value.
SETTING UP THE G CLAMP
Lock the G arm in place using the lever (FIG 2 - 1).
THE DIFFERENT WELDING MODES
For all the models :
The buttons (
keys + and –.
The button (FIG 2 -12) on the clamp is used to remotely adjust the welding settings (thickness, type of steel) :
- Long push : change of setting (to go from one setting to another)
- Short push : modification of the value
This button does not allow to change the arm on the screen. To change the arm (G1 to G2 for instance), the user must use the machine keypad.
Insufficient network pressure :
If the input pressure is insufficient to provide the correct pressure, the machine shows an error message before the weld «Insufficient network
pressure» . Pressing the trigger a second time is used to «force» the spot weld using the available pressure.
Low current :
If the current obtained during the spot weld is below the expected value (<6 %), the machine displays «low current» after the weld which means
that the weld must be checked.
In any case, a message is displayed at the end of the weld indicating the current and pressure measured. This message remains on display on the
screen until the user pushes a button on the keypad or carries on welding (FIG 2 - 11).
The welding conditions must be reviewed at the start of each new job. «Test» weld spots must be carried out on metal panels
or sheets similar to the new job being undertaken. Carry our two spot weld with appropriate space in between, in line with the
requirement of the job. Test the strength of the second weld. The test is successful if, when pulling the spot out, the panel breaks
and the centre is extracted. The centre must have a minimum diameter in line with the specifications of the make of the vehicle.
IMS SPOT 14500 TRAFO PRO
or
) are used
Use the
button in order to select the clamp setting function. The «clamp setting» function is used to
close the clamp and to apply the pressure pre-selected at the electrodes without power going through. The
clamp remains closed while the trigger is pressed. This function is designed to verify the centering of the end
bits.
Push the button
for 2 seconds to return to the AUTO mode.
For the SPOT 14500 TRAFO G, always ensure to be in that mode to stop the pump when changing the arms.
The electrode retracts into the clamp. The red indicator on the button (FIG 2 - 12) lights up when the pump
stops.
or
) are used to select the settings that need to be adjusted. Each adjustment is done by pressing the side
5 Setting the thickness of the plate
The value to be entered is in relation to the thickness of the sheets
being welded on. The selection of the thickness is done using the +
and - buttons, the different thicknesses available are 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2,
1.5, 1.8, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 mm.
6 Setting the type of plate
This setting is used to specify the type of metal plate being welded on,
the different choices are : coated steel, HLE/THLE steel, UHLE steel
and bore/USIBOR steel. This setting can also be adjusted using the +
and – buttons.
