2.03 Introduction
Tweco ® Robotics QRM-100 Anti-Spatter Mist Applicator
is used to pump a metered amount of Protex ® anti-
spatter compound to the conductor tube assembly. The
application cycle can be applied anytime there are a few
spare seconds in the weld cycle, during part changes, or
during a cleaning cycle.
The compound is injected into the purge line of the robotic
torch and cable assemblies and coats the nozzle, gas
diffuser, and tip on the conductor tube. In addition to
applying the anti-spatter compound, the compressed air
used with the applicators is used to dislodge any loose
particles.
The QRM-100 Anti-Spatter Mist Applicator has a 24-
volt DC solenoid, which is controlled either by the robot
controller or some other type of power source.
