Hello,
I have a question regarding the Kuka Arc Tech Package:
In our company we have the following situation:
If the ignition of the arc fails the robot stops and if I restart the robot tries again to light the arc.
If I restart 3 times the robot continues without welding the current seam. The Error message is "Continue without welding"
We want to change this behaviour (to continue without welding).
Therefor I searched in the manual.
According to the manual the parameter is "RESTART_OPT" which was 3.
First I tried:
I changed the parameter to 1:
"After welding has been interrupted, the robot repositions
the torch to the point of interruption. Welding is subse-
quently restarted."
Unfortunately there was no change in the robots behaviour when I changed this parameter.
Then I tried:
Then I changed the parameter to RESTART_OPT=2:
"The same function as with “RESTART_OPT=1”, with the
restriction that the number of permissible welding inter-
ruptions is limited to a maximum value.
This maximum value is defined in the variable
“MAX_REA20”. If this value is exceeded, the seam is
completed without welding and a corresponding
message is generated."
Therefor I changed the parameter MAX_REA20 to the value 99
but again: after 3 tries the robot continues without welding
I kindly ask for your support since I dint find any other solution in the manual
many thanks in advance
