The wheel speed can be set from 0 m/min to 30 m/min. The minimum speed
is the basic speed after the hot wedge has been swiveled in.
This must be >0 m/min when the heating is switched on. The speed must be
kept within a range where the welding process can still be properly controlled.
The maximum speed is the speed that can be achieved when the pedal is
pressed down fully. The maximum permissible speed varies depending on the
type of wedge. The maximum speed is 30 m/min.
The upper wheel can be operated with a differential speed to the lower wheel.
In terms of maximum values, the upper wheel can be operated 100% faster
(double speed) or up to 99% slower. If the maximum speed of 30 m/min
is exceeded by the differential, the value is automatically adjusted to the
"speed". The value of the "upper differential %" is maintained.
The energy is the energy value acting on a defined area. The energy value
can be set from 0 E/A to 200 E/A. The theoretical hot-wedge temperature is
calculated automatically based on the energy value in relation to the speed.
Preheat defines the prewarming energy, taking into account the waiting time
of the wedge, the defined energy value, and the start speed. It can be set
from -100% to +300%.
The clamp clearance defines the distance between the wheels and thus the
contact pressure. The clearance is set in mm. The + direction increases the
clamp clearance and the – direction decreases it.
The wedge clearance defines the distance from the hot wedge to the welding
wheels/the welding center.
The – direction decreases the distance to the wheels and the + direction
increases it.
