Hi guys,
i have a robot cell that uses a fronius TPS/I 500 in combination with a current clamp to do seam tracking (TAST).
this welder has the ability to output a digital seam tracking signal but it's not used as the robot controller does not support it.
we are having mixed results with seam tracking... and just feel its more finicky than it should be.
we are pulse welding 12-16mm mild steel.
i believe back in the fronius TPS days you had to use a specific synergic line (weld program) when using seam tracking.
(please see attached PDF screenshots)
I'm assuming it controlled the arc a little differently to allow for the current clamp to get a better signal.
does a new version of (P0555) exist for the new TPSI machines or are we just expected to use the digital signal?
cheers,
