Pneumatic Step 5 - Process Settings>Trigger
Trigger Type - Select Force as the Trigger Type.
Program a force value.
For this example we used values typical for welding an
energy director part with approximately 10 inches of
linear weld joint. This type of weld may need about 50
pounds of trigger force.
See Figure 4-28.
Figure 4-28 Suggested Initial Trigger Force
Max Trigger Time - Program a Max Trigger Time
of 3 seconds. This is the allowable cycle time from weld
initiation until the welder develops the programmed
force. Max Trigger Time will time the cycle out should
the machine, for some reason, not reach its programmed
force value.
Compensation Point - For a basic setup this value
can be programmed at zero. Typically force values
above 10 pounds are programmed at zero.
See Figure 4-29 on the next page. Continued
