  • Page 34: Welding

    Operation ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions X When using closed weld heads, ensure that the same gas type is used both outside and inside the pipe, i.e. the same gas both for the machine (weld head) and that which is fed into the pipe. Different gas types can lead to an undefined mixture of both gases in the welding pocket and thus to uneven weld penetration.
  • Page 35 ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Operation • Gas flow: The welding process is interrupted if 3 L/min is undershot. • The weld current, weld voltage and weld speed process parameters: Limit values specified in the program are taken into account.

  • Page 37: Making Percental Changes

    ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Operation 8.3.2 Making percental changes Reason: Welding result even, but weld seam penetrated too lightly or too heavily. The percental change affects all levels (sectors) on high- and low-pulse current. After the test run, the "Correction factor" field is highlighted in the display. 1.
  • Page 38: Adjusting Ignition Current, End Current And Current Slope-Off

    Operation ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions The space to be filled with gas also depends on the weld head size and pipe diameter. It may therefore be necessary to shorten the gas pre purge time for smaller weld heads. If the seam (with closed weld heads) is bare and nearly free of annealing colors right from the beginning, the gas pre purge time is correct.

    ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Operation 1. Ignition current: Using the "go further to gas pre purge time" > "go further to start delay time" buttons, select, adjust and save parameters. 2. Final current and current slope-off: Using the "go fur- ther to gas post purge time"...
  • Page 40 Operation ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Auto programming uses these linear transitions. This reduces the number of sectors. The effects to be compensated for by a change in current (e.g. heating of the pipes during welding) do not have a sudden character and can be compen- sated for better using transitions.
  • Page 41: Adjusting Pulse Times

    ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Operation 8.3.8 Adjusting pulse times Pulse times in most applications: 0.05 to 0.5 seconds. Auto programming calculates the pulse times from the wall thickness. Adjusting the pulse times affects the seam ap- pearance: A shorter pulse time yields a finer scale. 1.

  • Page 67: Possible Application/Operating Errors

    ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions Ser vice and troubleshooting Possible application/operating errors 9.2.1 Uneven weld seam ("current fluctuations") Observation Is the weld seam uneven? Possible causes • Are current fluctuations the cause? The OM 165 CA unit, for example, compensates possible current fluctuations in the mains in the range from 85 - 260 V. If you do not receive an error message from the system during welding, the weld current is, with 99% certainty, within the limit values set for the respective procedure.
  • Page 68: Uneven Seam/Hole Formation At The End Of Welding

    Ser vice and troubleshooting ORBIMAT CA | Operating instructions If the sulfur content is reduced further (approx. 0.005% or lower), the so-called "convection streams" in the melt pool (in simplified terms) tend to flow more horizontally and on the surface. This leads to widening of the seam without penetration.
