Hey everyone, I'm using a Fanuc M-710ic 20L robot and I'm fairly new to the whole robot scene. I was having a problem with my bead size, it wasn't big enough. To solve that I increased my wire feed speed, the problem I'm having now is that the robot automatically increases the volts and amps to match. That's causing me to blow through my part and weld everything to my jig. Not fun. Is there anyway for me to override that, so that my heat stays the same while my wire feed increases?

You can increase the weld speed inches per minute. This will allow for A larger bead to be deposited
without burning thru your material. I would try that first. If it only happens in one or a couple of spots,
Copper or brass inserts can be put under the welds in your Jig.

Your using a synergic weld schedule in your program, so it will act like that. You'll have to create or find another schedule.

If you are using pulse welding, you can also adjust the trim to get finer weld adjustments.

So I have created a new welding schedule but I am not seeing an option to toggle Synergic welding on/off. Anychance you could tell me where to find that? I have scoured the internet looking for a hint but there isn't anything. This forum really is my only resource. That being said thanks to everyone who has helped me out.

Also I have switched from Pulse to CV for the new welding schedule. I thought the synergic welding was more of a pulse type schedule. Am I wrong there?

That is normally done on the welding power source, you select the process you want.
There is normally several to choose from. If you stick with pulse, you can adjust the heat with the trim
setting.

Have been working with MIG welding robots for 20 years.
The easy welds are easy, the hard ones can be very difficult to get right every time.
You may want to create A new schedule for this weld you are having issues with.
Some of my programs use 10 or 12 different weld schedules for different types of welds.

What power source are you using? I'm familiar with Lincoln. With Lincoln you have to change the type of process. Lincoln has a list of weld process/ procedure numbers on line. I think they show if synergic or not.
Synergic is mostly a pulse thing, but Lincoln does have a synergic CV process.

How about just adding a weave?
