Automatic Wire-stick Release Function

Automatic Wire-stick Release Function
The automatic wire-stick release function can be used if wire stick is detected in spite of the anti-stick
process. When this function is used, the manipulator does not immediately output the wire sticking
signal upon detecting a wire stick, but automatically attempts to release the sticking by applying a
certain voltage. Only when the stick release process has failed for a specified number of times, the
manipulator stops and outputs the wire stick signal.
This function is specified in the arc end condition file or the ARCOF instruction's additional items.
When it is used, the voltage and number of attempts are set in the arc auxiliary condition file.
Manipulator Stopped by Wire Stick
If a wire stick occurs at the end of welding, the manipulator immediately stops in the hold status. While
the manipulator remains in the hold status, the [HOLD] lamp lights and the external system output
signal "Wire Sticking" is output.
Automatic Wire-stick Release
Even if a single attempt has failed, the process is repeated
up to the specified maximum repetition count.
