Welding Handset Torch Change for LaserMaster Dedicated Fiber Laser System and Wire Feeder Install
In this informative video, we will guide you through the process of performing a handset change on your laser master from AM.CO.ZA. This essential procedure involves replacing various components to ensure optimal performance and efficiency. Follow these step-by-step instructions to maintain your laser machine's peak functionality and extend its lifespan.
Step 1: Choose the Right Environment
Before starting the handset change, select a clean, dry, and dust-free workspace. This precautionary measure helps prevent any potential contamination or damage during the process.
Step 2: Gather the Necessary Tools
For the handset change, you will require welding equipment, power cables, air and water tubes, fibre cables, and other accessories provided by AM.CO.ZA. Organize everything in your workspace to streamline the process.
Step 3: Changing Fiber Cables
To begin the handset change, twist the locking screw and carefully remove the fibre cable from the current handset. Insert the fibre cable into the new handset, ensuring proper alignment of the slots. Push the cable in all the way and lock it securely using the locking screw. Safely pack away the old fibre cable to avoid any damage.
Step 4: Assembling Wire Feeding Tubes and Wheels
For wire welding, you'll need wire feeding tubes and wheels. Select the appropriate size of tubing for your wire thickness, ranging from 0.8 millimeters to 1.6 millimeters. Attach the feeding wheel facing inward and secure it with the locking screw. Next, attach the nozzle to one end of the feeding tube and push it through to the feeding wheel, locking it in place.
Step 5: Connecting Wire Feeding Tube to Torch
Attach the other end of the feeding tube to the torch and secure it with a screw. Clip the feeding tube into the holder, making sure to fit the correct nozzle for your desired wire thickness.
Step 6: Testing the Wire Feeding Mechanism
With all components in place, switch on the machine and start the wire feeding process. Insert the wire through the intake, over the feeding wheels, and through the nozzle. Lock the feeding wheels using the provided mechanism. Press the feeding button on the feeder until the wire comes out at the other end, near the handset. This ensures that the wire feeding mechanism is working correctly.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You have successfully completed the handset change on your laser machine from AM.CO.ZA. Following these steps will help maintain your equipment's performance and ensure a seamless welding experience. Remember, if you ever encounter difficulties or have questions during the process, you can always call AM.CO.ZA's knowledgeable technicians for assistance.
