MDS-1004 PROGRAMMABLE MODULE
The MDS-1004 PROGRAMMABLE MODULE provides stitch controls for welding or cutting with the Modular
Drive System. All stitching parameters are set and displayed on a graphic screen. This allows each setting
to be set exactly the same every time. See MDS-1004 Manual for detailed instructions.
FEATURES
• Each stitch setting is displayed while being set. This allows each setting to be exactly set each time
a job is set up.
• Closed loop encoder feedback is employed to ensure the traveled distances match the set distances.
• The module provides an extra contactor output. This output and the output on the Modular Drive can
be disabled or enabled independently.
• The module will stop the machine or return it to start after a preset number of welds. This eliminates
the need for external limit switches.
• This unit can return past the start location to allow for work piece changes. One button will start the
whole welding procedure.
• Stitch welds stopped in mid-job can be restarted without interrupting the weld pattern.
• Puddle-buildup and Crater-fill timers are independent.
