6.2 Melaraskan Parameter Kimpalan

The ARC200S features fully adjustable welding functions for optimal control:

  • Pelarasan Semasa: Rotate the adjustment knob to set the desired welding current (Amperage). The display will show the selected value.
  • Permulaan panas: This function provides an initial boost of current to make arc ignition easier, especially with difficult-to-start electrodes. It is adjustable for fine-tuning.
  • Pasukan Arka: Helps prevent the electrode from sticking to the workpiece by increasing current when the arc length becomes too short. This is also adjustable.
  • Anti-stick: Automatically reduces the current if the electrode sticks, allowing it to be easily removed without damaging the electrode holder.
  • VRD (Jilidtage Peranti Pengurangan): Mengurangkan vol litar terbukatage to a safe level when the machine is idle, enhancing safety. It has an ON/OFF switch.

Refer to the display (Image 6.1) to monitor and adjust these settings.

6.3 Proses Kimpalan (Umum)

  1. Prepare your workpiece by cleaning it thoroughly to remove rust, paint, or grease.
  2. Ensure proper ventilation and wear all required PPE.
  3. Position yourself comfortably and safely.
  4. For MMA Welding: Strike the arc by lightly touching the electrode to the workpiece and quickly lifting it slightly to establish the arc. Maintain a consistent arc length and travel speed.
  5. For Lift TIG Welding: Gently touch the tungsten electrode to the workpiece, then lift it slightly to initiate the arc. Maintain a short arc length and feed filler rod manually if required.
  6. After welding, turn off the machine and allow the workpiece to cool before handling.

  • Pemeriksaan Kabel: Periodically inspect all cables (power, electrode holder, ground clamp) for cuts, fraying, or damaged insulation. Replace damaged cables immediately.
  • Sambungan Terminal: Ensure all terminal connections are tight and free from corrosion.
  • Storan: Store the welder in a dry, clean environment, away from excessive dust and moisture.
