Depends on power source

3 WELDING PARAMETERS

3.1 Sectors

A program for tube welding can be divided into different sections: sectors. Each

sector corresponds to one section of the tube's circumference. The maximum

number of sectors for one program is 50.

A sector can be assigned its own set of values

for different welding parameters, such as

current, rotation speed and wire feed speed, etc.

This allows the welding to be performed using

different welding parameter settings for different

sections of the tube joint.

Sector 4 Sector 1

Sector 3 Sector 2

The division into sectors is done by

indicating different breakpoints or degrees

around the circumference of the tube. Each

breakpoint or degree constitutes the starting

point for a new sector. In the figure,

breakpoint 0.000, 0 degrees, is the starting

point for sector 1, breakpoint 0.250, 90

degrees, the starting point for sector 2, and

so on.

The power source allows welding of up to

10 turns in the same weld joint. (The

welding tool can be rotated 10 times around

the tube.)

To conclude a weld program, a so-called end sector is indicated.

For a sector to be counted as an end sector the following two conditions must be

fulfilled:

S There is no subsequent sector.

S The welding current value for the sector is 0 ampere.

3.2 Welding current

Six parameters are represented in the parameter group for welding current:

S Peak current

S Background current

S Pulse time

S Background time

S Special pulsing

S Slope, see point 3.9.

Pulse time

Background time

Peak current

Background current

TIG welding with pulsed current

Welding current can be pulsed or continuous (not pulsed).

3.2.1 Pulsed current/continuous current

When welding using a pulsed current, peak current, background current, pulse

time and background time must be given a value.

When welding using a continuous current, however, you need only enter a

parameter value for peak current. Entering a value for background current will result

in a pulsed current.

- 9 -

bi16d1ea

The welding current (pulsed current) can be synchronized with the weaving motion

so that the peak current will start when the electrode is at the extremes of the

weaving motion. This is also called special pulsing. (Even when special pulsing is

not used, peak current still starts at the extremes of the weaving motion.)

3.2.2 Special pulsing

Special pulsing means that the welding current is synchronized with the weaving

motion, i.e. you get peak current when the electrode is at the extremes of the

weaving motion. Thus, the peak current time is determined by the pause time for

each extreme.

Special pulsing can be used in combination with both continuous and pulsed

rotation. Special pulsing with pulsed rotation, also called square-wave pulsing,

means that the gear ring rotates when the electrode is at either extreme of the

weaving motion.

A = Background current

B = Peak current

Rotation direction Rotation direction

Special pulsing with

continuous rotation

Special pulsing with

pulsed rotation

With special pulsing, the wire feed can be either continuous or pulsed. With pulsed

wire feed, synchronization with the welding current takes place in the manner

described above, see also chapter 3.3”Wire Feed Speed”.

- 10 -

bi16d1ea

3.3 Wire feed

Wire feed speed is used to indicate the feed speed for the filler wire in cm/minute.

Speed can be pulsed or continuous (not pulsed).

Three parameters are represented in the parameter group for wire feed:

S Peak wire feed

S Background wire feed

S Slope, see point 3.9.

For welding using a continuous (not pulsed) wire feed, only the peak wire feed

parameter needs to be entered.

For welding with a pulsed wire feed speed, both the peak wire feed and the

background wire feed parameters need to be entered.

The pulsed wire feed speed is always automatically synchronized with the welding

current so that the wire feed speed is high when using peak current and low when

using background current.

3.4 Rotation

Used to indicate the rotation speed of the electrode around the workpiece. It is

indicated in mm/min.

The rotation speed can be pulsed or continuous (not pulsed).

Four parameters are represented in the parameter group for rotation:

S Rotation speed

S Rotation direction

S Pulsed rotation

S Slope, see point 3.9.

Pulsed rotation is automatically synchronized with the welding current so that the

welding tool is stationary at peak current and rotates at background current.

3.5 Arc voltage control (AVC)

Used during welding with welding tools equipped with an AVC unit.

Arc voltage control (AVC) means that the arc voltage, and therefore the arc length

(the distance between the electrode point and workpiece), is regulated automatically

during ongoing welding.

Four parameters are represented in the parameter group for arc voltage control

(AVC):

S Peak voltage (Arc voltage at peak current)

S Background voltage (Arc voltage at background current)

S Delay time

S Slope, see point 3.9.

The parameters peak voltage and background voltage are used to enter the

reference value for arc voltage control at peak current and background current. With

continuous current, only the peak voltage parameter needs to be entered.

- 11 -

bi16d1ea

If no value is indicated for peak voltage, use a value measured immediately after

welding began as the reference value.

If no value is indicated for background voltage and pulsed welding current is

entered, there is no arc voltage control with background current.

Note: It is not possible to indicate a time slope in sector 1 for peak voltage and

background voltage.

It is possible to enter a delay time as a means of stablising the arc before arc

voltage control commences. During this delay time the AVC unit is completely

locked.

If you do not enter a delay time, the following happens:

S The delay time is the same (at least 5 seconds) as any slope up time for the

welding current. If the entered slope up time is less than 5 seconds, the AVC unit

will start up once the slope ends, but only by increasing the arc voltage (arc

length).

S If no slope up time has been entered for the welding current, a fixed delay time

of 5 seconds applies. The AVC unit is not completely locked but can increase the

arc voltage (arc length).

3.6 Weaving

Used if you want to weave the electrode sideways during welding when using

welding tools equipped with a weaving unit.

Five parameters are represented in the parameter group for weaving:

S Weaving amplitude

S Weaving speed

S Left pause time

S Right pause time

S Slope, see point 3.9.

Amplitude (mm)

Left pause time (s)

Right pause time (s)

Weaving speed (mm/s)

Weaving

The weaving motion can be synchronized with the welding current (pulsed current)

so that the peak current will start when the electrode reaches the extremes of the

weaving motion. This is also called `special pulsing' and is described further in

chapter 3.2.2 ”Special Pulsing”.

- 12 -

bi16d1ea

3.7 Gas

Three parameters are represented in the parameter group for shielding gas:

S Weld gas

S Start gas

S Root gas

Weld gas refers to the shielding gas on the upper side of the weld joint. The weld

gas parameter indicates how long the shielding gas is to flow on the upper side of

the joint before and after welding. The weld gas is monitored by a flow guard min.

4.5 l/min.

Some shielding gases, for example, helium (He), can cause problems with regard to

igniting the arc. If this type of shielding gas is to be used as weld gas, it may be

advisable to use a different gas mixture at the actual instance of starting, a so-called

start gas.

Root gas refers to the shielding gas on the underside of the weld joint. The root gas

parameter indicates how long the shielding gas is to flow on the underside of the

joint before and after welding.

If one value is entered for weld gas and another for start gas in sector 1, only the

start gas will flow. The weld gas starts flowing once the arc is ignited.

3.8 Preheating

Preheating is used to heat the workpiece at the starting point in order to ensure

correct penetration of the molten pool and is defined as the time elapsing between

arc ignition and the start of the rotary motion. If no value has been entered for

preheating, rotation will start as soon as the arc ignites.

3.9 Slope

A slope may be indicated for certain parameters. A slope is the time during which the

value of the parameter gradually changes from the value in the preceding sector to

the value entered for the current sector.

Slope up = gradual increase, if the preceding value is lower than the entered value.

Slope down = gradual decrease, if the preceding value is higher than the entered

value.

The maximum period a slope can run depends on the duration of a particular sector.

If the slope time is of the same duration as the sector, this is called a `sector slope'.

In this view, you can view and edit welding parameters for current in a graphical

representation.

The current's peak and background values are represented in a coordinate system.

The Y-axis represents the current's value in ampere, while the X-axis represents

time.

The current's various values per sector are connected and form a line.

Green indicates the peak current value per sector, while blue indicates the

background current value per sector.

Slope is represented as an angled line from the start of the sector, which ends where

the slope time stops on the X-axis.

S Zoom

Here you can adjust the scale of the X-axis in the coordinate system.

S Weld control

The buttons in this box control the welding process. You can start, stop, direct

stop, continue or simulate the start of the welding process.

S Sector information

The figures in this field show the other parameters concerned with the parameter

group for current. The sector's breakpoint is represented by a dash in a circle

(cross-section of a tube).

If the weld program extends over more than one turn, these turns are shown as

a sequence of slightly smaller circles.

The preheating time is shown in tenths of a second under the breakpoint

information.

Special pulsing on or off is shown as an image, where a red cross indicates that

special pulsing is not being used.

The relationship between pulse times is shown as a pulse cycle. Separate times

for peak and background pulse.

S Figure for breakpoints

It is possible to move, add or remove breakpoints using the knob in the figure for

breakpoints. By skipping forward to the figure and highlighting it, you can turn the

knob and move a white dash or `cursor'.

Moving a breakpoint:

S Press the knob once the cursor is on or directly next to the breakpoint cursor

(black) to be moved.

The breakpoint is `collected' by the cursor and follows this when it is turned

around in the circle.

S To confirm the new breakpoint, press the knob.

Creating a new breakpoint

S Move the cursor by turning the knob and press the knob once at the point

where you want the new breakpoint to be created.

Removing a breakpoint:

S Press the knob once the cursor is on or directly next to the breakpoint cursor

to be removed.

The breakpoint is `collected' by the cursor and follows this when it is turned

around in the circle.

S Turn the knob to the previous or next breakpoint and press the knob once.

Weld area --> Parameters --> Graphical--> Wire feed

Here you can view and edit parameters that control wire feed per sector.

The coordinate system shows the speed at which the wire will be fed out at the peak

and background value per sector.

Slope is represented as an angled line from the start of the sector for the duration

entered for the slope.

Weld area --> Parameters --> Graphical--> Rotation

Rotation speed is viewed and edited in a coordinate system with one line for each

value and time slope. The coordinate system shows breakpoints as dashed lines.

If pulsed rotation is off, this is shown by a pulse that is crossed out.

Weld area --> Parameters --> Graphical--> Weaving

This view shows the parameters that affect weaving. The amplitude is viewed and

edited in the coordinate system. Speed and pause times are viewed and edited in

the sector information field.

Weld area --> Parameters --> Graphical--> AVC

Here you can view and edit parameters that control AVC. Peak and background

voltage are shown in the coordinate system.

Delay time is viewed and edited in the sector information field.

Weld area --> Parameters --> Graphical--> Gas

Times for weld, start and root gas are viewed and edited in this view.

5.1.2 File manager

This view is used to save, copy, clear and verify weld programs.

S Save weld program

To save a weld program, select where you want the program to be saved, either

on the control unit (User defined programs) or on a USB memory device

(External memory).

Specify a file name and click the 'Save weld program' button using the knob.

S Copy weld program to another area

Depending on which work area is active, it is possible to copy the contents of

one area to another area by clicking the 'Copy this wld program to design area'

button or 'Copy this weld program to weld area' button.

S Clear, reset weld program

If you want to begin a brand new weld program, click the 'Clear weld area'

button or 'Clear design area' button.

S Verify

This function is used to check whether the weld program in the current work area

fulfils the system's requirements as follows:

S A tool is selected for the weld program.

S The connected tool is the same as the one the program is designed for (only

applies to weld area).

S The program has at least two sectors (start and stop sector).

S The final sector in the program is a stop sector (the welding current is zero).

S Selected tube diameter is supported by the selected tool.

S The welding parameters in each sector are within the limits (min. and max.

values) for the selected tool.
