  • Page 20: Changing The Contact Tip

    Design and function Wear part replacement 5.9.2 Changing the contact tip The choice of the plasma nozzle depends on the application and the associated current load > see 5.8 chapter. The plasma nozzle should be replaced when the nozzle channel is damaged and therefore no longer cir- cular.
  • Page 21: Regrinding The Electrode

    Design and function Wear part replacement Figure 5-11 5.9.3.1 Regrinding the electrode The electrode shape is decisive for a good welding result. Therefore, it is necessary to grind electrodes by machine to the correct shape before use. The electrode must be replaced if the electrode tip is exces- sively worn, tarnished too much, or burned back asymmetrically.
  • Page 22: Removal And Reassembly Of The Electrode With Mounted Electrode Clamping Unit

    Design and function Wear part replacement Regrinding electrodes centrically Figure 5-13 The tip of the electrode should be centred in the longitudinal axis of the electrode. In the case of devia- tions, there is a risk that the arc will become unstable. Especially in automated welding, a non-centred electrode tip leads to ignition next to the proper ignition point.

  • Page 27: 5.10.2 Double Arc

    Design and function Commissioning 5.10.2 Double arc When the current load is too high or the torch held at too steep an angle, a second arc will form between workpiece and plasma nozzle. Figure 5-20 Increased current load and a torch position that is too skew lead to considerable plasma nozzle wear.
