TECNA TE 500 - Program Sequence Example

26 / 52
For each start cycle signal a spot is carried out with the weld program associated with the current step.
In this specific case, as shown in the chart below, the following welds are performed in sequence:
$ 4 welds with program 03
$ 2 welds with program 07
$ 6 welds with program 11
$ 1 weld with program 04
PARAMETER VALUE
NUMBER SEQUENCE 04
STEP 1 PRG. 03
STEP 1 WELDS 04
STEP 2 PRG. 07
STEP 2 WELDS 02
STEP 3 PRG. 11
STEP 3 WELDS 06
STEP 4 PRG. 04
STEP 4 WELDS 01
Let's take for example the sequence operation after having set the following values in the parameters.
PROGRAM SEQUENCE MENU
Usually this type of operation is applied to one manual welder where the operator always performs weld
spots in the same order but with different work parameters. By means of this system the operator does
not need to change the program manually which would cause his/her attention to be distracted from the
workpiece to be welded or does not have to change pedal or other start cycle device.
However the operator must pay utmost attention during the process not to perform fewer spots than
those programmed, overlapping spots or not in the same order.
