Lincoln Electric 10R Benutzerhandbuch

[2]

• Designed for robotic and hard automation for the automotive,

transportation, fabrication, furniture, lawn and garden, and agri-
cultural industries, among others.

• Digital communication between the power source and the wire

feeder for demanding robotic applications.

• Braking system minimizes wire sticking in the puddle for smooth

finishes.

Nextweld incorporates Lincoln's technologies,
processes and products to create a technologically
advanced arc welding platform. Waveform Control
Technology™, power electronics and digital
communications provide the foundation for
Nextweld innovations, including Surface Tension
Transfer®, Pulse-On-Pulse™,          Chopper
Technology™, ArcLink™ and many more. Try
Nextweld products for ultimate arc control, high
efficiency/reliability, and seamless system
integration.

ArcLink is a digital communications protocol for sharing information
between intelligent components in an arc welding system. Power
Wave products and FANUC robotic systems interfaced with ArcLink™
provide the following benefits over Analog-Digital Interface:

• Common user interface on Teach Pendant eliminates the 

requirement for any user panel on the power source.

• Teach Pendant can display actual volts, wire feed speed, etc. in

process specific units.

• No setup function is required. The Robot is an ArcLink device and

recognizes which power source is connected.

• Process procedures reside in the power source database and can

be searched by process and material type directly on the Teach
Pendant.

• High speed CAN 2.0B interface provides robust industrial network

with collision detection and active/general connection states.

• Switch among eight modes (CV, Pulse, Pulse-On-Pulse, etc.)

dynamically on the fly based on weld requirements.

• Arc start response time of 5/10 msec or less.

• FANUC’s FAStart provides 300 msec arc start improvement over

other systems, 100 msec arc end improvement resulting in time
savings of 400 msec per weld. 

• Touch Sensing Performance of 100 mm/sec search speed with

.045 steel wire.

• Touch Sensing does not require additional hardware. 

• ArcTool Control software enables true weld sequencer commands

motion and weld procedures.

• Detailed power source Fault & Alarm information available on the

Teach Pendant.

• Ability to monitor and download software to the power source

through the Ethernet connection on FANUC’s R-J3iB controller.
New procedures can be sent to any and all machines over the
network. 

• Full support of Lincoln diagnostic packages through R-J3iB

Ethernet port.

• FANUC TAST performance is available with no additional

hardware to provide updates of actual weld current and voltage
at 250 Hz for improved seam tracking performance.

• Calibration between robot and power source is not required.
