Note: The CT-520DPL is sold without accessories such as a USA plug or torch. These must be acquired separately.

5. Mod Operasi

The CT-520DPL offers five distinct functions. Select the desired mode using the buttons on the control panel.

5.1 CUT (Plasma Cutting)

This mode is for plasma cutting various metals. It supports 2T (two-touch) and 4T (four-touch) trigger modes. Ensure compressed air is connected and regulated.

• Mod 2T: Tekan dan tahan picu obor untuk memotong; lepaskan untuk berhenti.
• Mod 4T: Press and release the trigger to start cutting; press and release again to stop. This mode is useful for longer cuts to reduce hand fatigue.
• Applicable Thickness: Up to 18mm for various metals.

5.2 TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) Welding

TIG welding provides high-quality, precise welds. This machine features High-Frequency (HF) ignition. Pure argon gas is required.

• Mod 2T: Press and hold the torch trigger to weld; release to stop.
• Mod 4T: Press and release the trigger to start welding; press and release again to stop.
• Parameter: Adjustable parameters include Per-Flow Time, Start Current, Rise Time, Peak Current, Base Current, Down Time, Crater Current, and Post-Flow Time.
• Applicable Thickness: 0.8mm hingga 12mm.

5.3 PULSE TIG Welding

Pulse TIG welding offers better control over heat input, reducing distortion and improving weld quality, especially on thin materials. It uses a pulsed current between a peak and base current.

• Parameter: In addition to standard TIG parameters, Pulse Frequency and Duty Ratio are adjustable.
• Example: Pulse TIG on 0.8mm SS Square Pipe and 3mm Stainless Steel Plate (refer to Figure 5.1).

5.4 COLD Welding

COLD welding mode is designed for minimal heat input, ideal for thin materials and applications where heat distortion must be avoided. It produces a silver-white fish scale weld bead on stainless steel. Pure argon gas is required.

• Parameter: Cold Welding Time (1-200ms) and Cold Welding Interval (0-10Hz) are adjustable.
• Example: Pulse COLD on 1mm and 2mm Stainless Steel Plate (refer to Figure 5.1).

5.5 Kimpalan MMA (Arka Logam Manual)

MMA, also known as Stick welding, is a versatile process suitable for outdoor use and on dirty or rusty materials. It uses consumable electrodes.

• Parameter: Hot-Start Current and Hot-Start Time are typically fixed or automatically controlled.
• Applicable Thickness: 2mm hingga 12mm.
• Example: MMA on 3.2 Stainless Steel Electrode and 4.0 Carbon Steel Electrode (refer to Figure 5.1).

• Pembersihan: Periodically clean the exterior of the machine with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use solvents.
• Pembersihan Dalaman: For internal cleaning, compressed air can be used to blow out dust and debris from the cooling vents. This should be done in a well-ventilated area and with the machine disconnected from power.
• Pemeriksaan Kabel: Regularly inspect all cables (power, ground, torch) for damage, cuts, or frayed insulation. Replace damaged cables immediately.
• Penyelenggaraan Obor:
  • Obor TIG: Inspect and replace tungsten electrodes as needed. Ensure collets and collet bodies are clean and free of spatter.
  • Plasma Torch: Check and replace consumables (electrode, nozzle, swirl ring, shield cup) regularly as they wear out.
  • MMA Electrode Holder: Ensure good contact and clean any spatter.
• Gas/Air System: Check hoses and connections for leaks. Ensure the built-in oil-water separator is functioning correctly and drain any accumulated moisture if applicable.
• Storan: Store the welder in a dry, clean environment, away from excessive dust and moisture.
