ACTUATION
The 1099 press is equipped with two maintained anti-repeat (non-tie-down)
palm buttons, one located on the left and one on the right side of the base of
the press. Both palm buttons must be pressed simultaneously to activate the
press to cycle the welder. To operate the press, follow these simple steps:
1. Depress both black palm buttons simultaneously.
2. Once the horn comes in contact with the part and the ultrasonics are
activated, release the palm buttons. If you release the buttons before
contact is made, the head will immediately return to its “home” position.
The operation of the 1096 actuator is controlled by the automated system. A
four-wire actuation cable is provided which ties into the output side of a PLC,
or other system controlling device. Momentary two wire closure from a dry
source will initiate the welder’s cycle. For more information, refer to the power
supply manual and the included wiring diagrams.
EMERGENCY STOP
To abort the 1099 press during welding, simply press the red EMERGENCY
STOP button located at the front center of the press base.
Once the EMERGENCY STOP button has been depressed, the head will
retract and return to its “home” position. Simply rotate the EMERGENCY
STOP button to the right 1/4 turn to release the press for further operation.
For the 1096 actuator, a four-wire actuation cable contains two normally
closed wires which control the emergency stop function. For more
information, refer to the power supply manual and the included wiring
diagrams.
NOTE: Power supply
cannot be shut off once the
weld cycle has started.
Termination of cycle can
only be achieved by using
the EMERGENCY STOP
button.
The equipment has safety
devices that require both
hands to be on the palm
buttons until the horn
contacts the workpiece. Do
not defeat or modify
these safety devices.
Do not use with a
footswitch unless alternate
means of pinch-point
protection is provided.
