Rotation Method

In this method, the weld duration is controlled by
completing a specified number of spin revolutions. The

Weld Parameters

button is used to enter the settings

shown in Figure 5-13. The

Weld Rotations

field specifies

the number of weld revolutions. The actual number
of weld rotations as reported on the

RUN

screen after

the weld will be larger than the number entered in this
field and depends on the deceleration and whether final
orientation is enabled (see Orientation Option below).
The

VERT Speed (mm/s)

,

SPIN RPM

, and Dir. fields

are the same as in the Time Method. The

DONE

button

causes a return to the main

WELD

tab screen.

Distance Method

In this method, the weld duration is controlled by vertical
travel to a specified absolute or collapse distance. The

Weld Parameters

button is used to enter the settings

shown in Figure 5-14. The

Vertical (mm)

field specifies

the travel distance, depending on the position of the

Collapse / Absolute

switch located on the bottom of the

screen. If the switch selection is

Collapse

as shown in

Figure 5-14, the travel distance is measured relative to
the trigger point. If the switch selection is

Absolute

as

shown in Figure 5-15, the travel distance is measured
from the press topmost, or 0 position (also referred to
as the “home” position). The

Teach Position

button is

available in the Absolute Distance mode, which allows
the position to be defined by physically jogging the press
down to the desired weld end position. The layout of the
Teach Position screen is very similar to the

TRIGGER

Position screen shown in Figure 5-8. Directly below
the

Vertical (mm)

field is the minimum weld distance,

which is automatically calculated by the welder based
on other parameters such as speed and deceleration. The

VERT Speed (mm/s)

,

SPIN RPM

, and

Dir

. fields are the

same as in the Time Method. The

DONE

button causes

a return to the main

WELD

tab screen.
