Creating an Orbital Tack Weld Program
Tack welding is often required for holding parts in place for orbital welding.
This can be done either with a manual torch (Chap. 4 pages 9 -10; Chap. 9)
or an Orbital Tack Weld program can be generated automatically for use with
the Model 307 and AMI tube welding heads. An example Orbital Tack Weld
program follows:
Begin by selecting a folder for the program, unit of measure, and weld head
then touch Next. This example uses a 9-1500 weld head and 1 inch O.D. tube.
