  • Page 6: Introduction

    Safety Instructions The KÖCO stud welding equipment 1805i and the KÖCO stud welding gun CLASSIC is designed for use in drawn- arc stud welding only. It must not be used for any other purpose, with the exception of manual electrode welding, and then only if the appliance is equipped for this purpose.
  • Page 7: Operational Safety Of The Equipment

    ▪ During the welding process, persons wearing heart pace-makers must be kept at a safe distance from the ap- pliance and the welding cables, because the strong magnetic fields could endanger their lives. ▪ In addition to the above, all normal accident prevention regulations must be observed. 1.2.2 Operational Safety of the Equipment ▪...
  • Page 8 ▪ The heat generated by welding may lead to the release of gases or vapours which are dangerous to health or even explosive. Specialized knowledge is required for this kind of work. Do not carry out such operations un- less you possess the necessary knowledge! ▪...
  • Page 9: Drawn Arc Stud Welding

    Drawn Arc Stud Welding Drawn-arc stud welding is used for the welding of metallic parts, generally of cylindrical shape, onto metallic work- pieces. For this purpose, a DC power source and a mobile device, the welding gun, are required. Depending on the type of welding-pool protection and welding time range used, the appropriate process may be stud welding with a ceramic ferrule, stud welding with with shielding gas, or short-cycle stud welding, either with or without shielding gas.

  • Page 11: The Power Source

    The Power Source The power source consists of a primary chopped inverter with constant current control, a choke connected in se- ries, and an electronic control. The machine is laid out for a mains voltage of 400 V (3-phase). Operation with other voltages is also possible by interposing a transformer.
  • Page 12: Technical Data On Stud Welding Guns Classic

    Please note: connecting the K 26 gun to an 1805i power source is not recommended, since all types of studs that can be processed with an 1805i power source can also be welded with SK 14, K 22, K 22-D or K 24 guns.
  • Page 13: Setting Guidelines For Welding With Ceramic Ferrule Or Shielding Gas

    Setting Guidelines for welding with ceramic ferrule or shielding gas The settings given in figure 2 have been tested for welds on clean metallic surfaces and standard type studs in downhand position. The decisive parameter is the actual diameter at the welding end of the stud, not the nominal diameter.
  • Page 14: Setting Guidelines For Short Cycle Stud Welding Without Weld Pool Protection Or With Shielding Gas

    Setting guidelines for short cycle stud welding without weld pool pro- tection or with shielding gas Short cycle stud welding is used where it is desirable to keep the penetration on thin workpieces as shallow as possible, normally with studs ranging from M 3 to M 12 (PS type flanged studs according to EN ISO 13918). If the outward appearance of welding collars is not important, protection of the welding pool can be omitted.
  • Page 15: Working With The Stud Welding Equipment

    Working with the stud welding equipment Requirements before starting-up 1. Ensure adequate power supply, according to instructions under section 2.2. 2. The power connection must be earthed according to regulations. 3. The housing of the welding power source must not have any electrical contact with the workpiece. Make sure that the insulating wheels (casters) are in perfect condition! 4.
  • Page 16 8. Only when welding with a ceramic ferrule: Place a suitable ceramic ferrule into its grip. Check the centering of the footpiece by manually pulling back the piston of the gun and then slowly releasing it again. The stud should then move forward without pushing the ceramic ferrule out of its guide. If the ceramic ferrule is pushed out, loosen the footpiece and improve its centering.
  • Page 17 12. Selection of damping (K 22-D, K 24 and K 26 guns only): The damping adjustment screw is situated be- tween the two legs at the front of the gun. In general, damping is only used with studs from 14 mm in diameter, to prevent splashing of the welding pool while the stud plunges.
  • Page 18: Starting-Up Of The Power Source

    Starting-up of the Power Source 1. Insert the mains plug into the socket and lock it into position using the lock ring (if available). 2. Connect the ground cable to the ground sockets of the welding power source and the workpiece. The connec- tion points on the workpiece must be bright metal.
  • Page 19: Counter Functions

    3.4.3 Counter functions Immediately following a weld (also following a „shot in the air”, which is not added to the counter reading), the cur- rent counter reading will be shown on the display panel for about 1 second. As long as the pushbutton of the gun is kept pressed, the display will remain visible. This also applies if the ma- chine is not unlocked (closed welding circuit), i.e.
  • Page 20: Weld Testing

    Weld Testing For testing a stud weld, there are several different methods available: 1. Visual test: A good weld will have a closed even weld collar with a shiny blue-gray surface, not dull or porous. The welded stud will have its nominal length  1 mm. Figure 8: Assessment of visual examination Explanantion: Nominal length of stud...
  • Page 21: Maintenance Of The Welding Power Source

    Chart 2: Assessment of stud welds Appearance Remarks Good weld with ceramic ferrule Good weld with shielding gas Lopsided melting because of arc-blow effect. This can be reme- died by adjusting the earth clamps, by providing compensating masses at the rim, or by turning the gun (if the welding cable is on the outside).
  • Page 22: Maintenance Of The Welding Gun

    Maintenance of the Welding Gun The welding gun is an electrical tool which must be kept perfectly insulated. In case of any damage to its body or cables, welding must be discontinued at once. Do not use water jets or solvents for cleaning. Protect the gun against moisture.

    Remedies for Malfunctions Error signals are shown in plain text; with the word “error” in the first line. The error descriptions will then be listed in the following lines. If more than three types of error occur simultaneously, the display screen will temporarily change to show a complete list of errors diagnosed.
