Perform Operation Cycle
Perform the operation cycle as follows:
1. Load Station 1 (station on the right) with production parts.
2. Press the CYCLE START button on operator Station 1. The operator door
rises, and the robot moves to the Home 1 position.
3. The controller waits for the “OK TO WORK” input, signaling that the
operator door is up and the robot is in Zone 1.
4. The robot moves into the work area and begins welding. When the robot has
finished welding, it returns to the Home position, then proceeds to Station 2.
As soon as the robot has left Station 1, the operator door lowers giving the
operator access to the welded parts on Station 1.
5. While the robot is welding at Station 1, load Station 2 (station on the left)
with production parts.
6. Press the CYCLE START button on operator Station 2. The operator door
rises. The robot begins welding at Station 2 as soon as it has finished welding
at Station 1.
7. While the robot is welding on Station 2, unload the welded parts from Station
1 and load new parts.
8. Activate CYCLE START to raise the operator door and permit the robot to
return to Station 1.
NOTE:
The robot will not return to Station 1 until CYCLE START has been activated, even if it has
completed work at Station 2. If the robot finishes working at Station 2 before Station 1 is
reloaded, the robot will return to the Home position (Cube 24) and wait for a CYCLE START
command from either station.
Once all production work is finished and the robot completes work on the last
station, the robot returns to the Home position and both operator doors open to
permit unloading/loading. The doors remain in the down position until CYCLE
START is activated at one or both stations.
