Heat Wave Synchronization
Features
HeatWave is an advanced function for arc welding applications. The welding parameter such as current and voltage can
be changed between 3 schedules and synchronized with weaving motion so that the heat input left and right of the welding
seam can be precisely controlled and very difficult welding seams e.g. with a thin and a thick wall can be welded with best
results.
For arc welding without weaving motion the Low Frequency Pulse function allows to switch between welding schedules
with a frequency of 0.1~10hz and a duty cycle of 20%~80%.

Arc Welding
Functions
Tracking Jog
Features
The Tracking Jog function simplifies manual operations in arc welding systems with multiple robot arms and coordinated
motion.
If the robots are not equipped with the Tacking Jog function, and the user wants to move the robot holding the work piece
(handling robot), then the robot holding the welding torch (welding robot) will lose contact with the work piece. It is then
difficult and time consuming afterwards to jog the welding robot back to the Arc Start position.
Using the Tracking Jog function helps in this case; the welding robot arm will follow the motion of the handling robot and
maintain the relative position of the arc welding torch to the workpiece. This speeds up programming and avoids collision
of the welding torch with clamps, the work piece and the other robot(s).
Benefits
• Simplify manual jogging and speed up teaching in coordinated welding systems (welding robot + handling robot)

Dispense Tool Application 2nd Analogue Port
Features
The DispenseTool application software only controls the material flow of the material (glue, PVC etc.) to be sprayed (by an
analog or group output) as required, for instance, for "airless" spray guns.
The function Dispense 2nd Analog Port allows to control spray guns (e.g. "air assisted"), where pressurized air is used for
instance to shape the spray fan for high speed or high quality applications.
Notes: DispenseTool can control material flow and air pressure according to the robot speed using TCP Speed Prediction.
With TCP Speed Prediction when the robot slows down, for instance in corners, the material flow and air pressure are
then automatically reduced to maintain exactly the same bead width as at normal speed. The option Dispense 2nd Analog
Port is provided as standard for all robots delivered in Europe.
Benefits

Up-Time Functions
Intelligent Interference Check
Features
Intelligent Interference Check (R759) is a function to check and prevent an interference between Robots.
The user can program the robot to wait before entering an interference space, until the space is clear and no collision
possible. Intelligent Interference Check creates realistic models of the robot arm and tooling and safely prevents their
interference with other objects and robots.
Intelligent Interference Check works for multiarm robots (for example 2 arm controller by one R-30iB controller) as well
as for robots with separate controller connected by an Ethernet link.
Note: Interference Check shall ensure a smooth production without stopping and downtime. When hazards for operators
may occur, we strongly recommend to use Dual Check Safety (DCS) Position / Speed Check option. Models from the DCS
position speed check setup can be imported into Interference Check.
Benefits
• Prevent interference, collisions between Robot and Robot as well as Robot and Equipment, Workpiece and Tooling
• Improve uptime in multi-robot cells
• Reduce external wiring and system costs
