Troubleshooting

PROBLEM
Welding process does not
start.
Weld head does not clamp
correctly on the workpiece.
Continuously large and
constantly different speed
deviations.
Arc does not ignite.
Arc tends to one side.
Arc ignites against parts of the
weld head.

POSSIBLE cAUSE
No gas and cooling liquid supply.
Workpiece outside the tolerance range.
Defect at the power source or weld head.
Excess electrical resistance arising from soiling
between the weld head and the clamping
inserts/clamping cassette and workpiece.
Workpieces soiled.
Forming gas concentration too low.
Electrode distance too large.
Electrode tip worn.
Contact fault between electrode and rotor.
Cable break.
Conductivity of the cooling liquid too high.
Electrode worn.
Electrode ground incorrectly.
Poor electrode quality.
Bad material quality.
Electrode not OK.
Electrode distance too high.
Weld head soiled.
Gas pre purge time too short.
Electrode not installed.

REMEDY
X Check the connections at the welding power
supply.
X Check the coolant level at the power source.
X Check the forming gas supply and forming gas
quantity.
X Use adapted clamping inserts.
X Contact Service.
X Clean the workpiece and clamping insert.
X Clean the contact surfaces between the weld
head and clamping inserts/clamping cassette
and workpiece to clamping jaw/clamping
cassette.
X Clean the workpiece.
X Check the forming gas supply and forming gas
quantity.
X Set the electrode distance.
X Regrind the electrode
(See chap. 10.5, p. 85).
X Clean the head again.
X Replace the hose package.
X Use only Orbitalum cooling liquid OCL-30.
X Regrind the electrode
(See chap. 10.5, p. 85).
X Regrind the electrode
(See chap. 10.5, p. 85).
X Use Orbitalum electrodes.
X Sulfur content too high or different.
X Inhomogeneous alloy components.
X Replace the electrode.
X Set the electrode distance.
X Clean the weld head.
X Increase the gas pre purge time.
X Install electrode.
