The Weave tab contains parameters that will affect the weaver. The dwells, amplitude, speed, and

delay can be set, along with the weave mode. The control system will not allow values to be entered

that would be invalid, like a minimum that is greater than a maximum. If it is desired that the weaver

be disabled, select the straight line mode. All weaving parameters will be ignored.

Figure 10.1

Note: The motion of the weaver does not consider the acceleration and deceleration time. This allows

you to make a very fast and tight weave. If the acceleration and deceleration time was considered, the

motion would appear to pause longer than expected. This is the same behavior across all machines.

Numbers are still no match for the trained eye of a welding engineer and parameters must be tested

before used.

10.1.1 Dwell Left – This column provides the default data for the weave dwell on the left side of

the oscillation motion.

10.1.2 Dwell Right – This column provides the default data for the weave dwell on the right side of

the oscillation motion.

10.1.3 Weave Amplitude – This column provides the default data for the width at which the

weaver will move the welding gun from side to side during oscillation.
