Continuing with the Process Settings tab. . . This is the
speed of the thruster during the weld cycle (after Trigger
Sensing Speed and Motion Force Decrease have oc-
curred). This motion feature is only available on servo-
press systems. The speed range is from 0.001 to 1.0 in/s.
Motion Control Mode - Select Speed.
Motion Type - Select Constant.
Speed - Program speed. A typical initial setting range for

Advanced users will optimize the Motion Speed
using Profile to produce superior weld strength
and excellent cosmetic appearance. See Figure
4-17 where Profile was selected as the Motion
Type.This feature allows creating a speed mo-
tion profile during the weld cycle. The speed
motion profile can be created to match the actual
melt collapse of the weld joint.

Optimizing the Feature
The easiest way to make best use of this feature
is to optimize the power draw throughout the
weld cycle. This can be done by manipulating
the Speed Profile until the Power Graph shows a
smooth, constant result.
See Figure 4-18 at right for a view of a Speed
Profile.
