okay, then can you pl. check....
1.weld M/c to Robot feeder cable.i.e.Communication
2.Earthing ConnectionPl. go thru below parametes..these are working fine on 90%-Ar/10%Co2 with Rj3ic Fanuc & Linclon I400 M/c.
Trim --- 0.95
WFS (IPM) --- 570
Travel Speed (IPM)--- 30
At what voltage ^
I am using a mix gas. Argon and CO2, and I tried the settings mentioned by weldor33. Still no luck. Thanks guys. Might be a hardware issue after all.
the above mentioned problem is only due to improper setting of weld paramter.....take trial's with diff. kind of parameters.
Do you have an example of weld parameters that have worked for you?
I tried a few more setups of voltages. I meant to type 24volts in the example above. I also went through the menu-->setup stuff and I had calibrated it correctly the first time. Still getting the same results. A short spark and then an error '018-Lost Arc Detect'. This is what happens in order:
Wire feeds out,
Presses into the part,
Sparks,
Ruins the tip,
Errors out
I am actually just trying to get it to work. I was not sure what parameters to use. I will try those settings. Thanks.
I am using .045 diameter wire, with argon, on 1/4" cold drawn steel.
I appreciate the manual, however, it still does not work. Does anyone have a sample code that utilizes welding with a robot like this?
Also I keep getting an error when this occurs:
'ARC-013 ARC Start Failed' or
'ARC-018 Lost ARC Detect'
When I try to use a schedule, the robot won't even arc. I put those in so you could see the settings I was using.
As for material, I am using steel and the power source is the Lincoln Electric Power wave i400.
Hey everyone,
I am working on a new Fanuc 120iC Arc Mate and am trying to get it to weld. I have it moving in the pattern that I want, but when I run the program, it just sparks once and then clogs the tip so I have to replace it. This is my program:
1:J P[1]] 10% FINE
: ARC Start[WP1,175.0IPM, 34.00Volts,2.00]
2:L P[2] WELD_SPEED FINE
: ARC End[1]
[End]
Not sure what I am doing wrong but any help would be nice. I am very new at Fanuc Welding Robots.
Thanks,
Matt L
