Having switched on the spot welder, you have to select and determine the
type of welding process first. You may choose one of the following
processes: VISION, VISION ED coat, ELMAQS, STANDARD, specific
automaker program OPEL and OPEL-VP for Opel. Also available optional
programs like BMW-QS for BMW or VAS 6755 for Volkswagen.
It is also possible to use the SINGLE- mode for the single sided tong.
VISION: Welding on clean grinded surface sheet metal.
VISION ED COAT: Welding on electrolytic dipped sheet metal.
By pressing the gun trigger and closing the tong a complex measuring
system starts its work. It is able to collect the total thickness of the material
which should be welded, and with the start of the current flow it recognises
if there is a normal or high strength steel between the electrode caps, within
some milliseconds. For that the machine controls the welding process fully
automatic without any adjustments.
By selecting the "WELDING" mode, the following display appears on the
screen:
Flashing of the two LED' s „TOOL" and „ELECTRODE" indicates that the
machine has to pass the calibration of the welding tong. The calibration is
used to collect the exact process resistance during the welding process, ad-
justing the right tong tool and to calibrate the pulse- sonar- system of the
welding tong.
