Arc-10
Integrated PTA & GTA Plasma
Powder Welding System



Intelligent PTA Welding

The ARC-10 is an intelligent welding system, with advanced computer technology that allows the user to easily program and control welding sequences. The system is designed for simple integration with other equipment. The ARC-10 gives the user the ability to program and execute a complex sequence of welding steps, while user defined inputs and outputs allow the ARC-10 to control and respond to integrated equipment such as side-beam manipulators, lathes and positioners. It is this versatility that sets the ARC-10 apart from its competition.


ARC-5 Features Include:
  1. The advanced features of the ARC-10 welding system includes:
  2. Computer controlled cross-slides
  3. Integrated oscillator
  4. Integrated AVC
  5. PLC control of motion, program steps and welding parameters
  6. Storage of 99 welding and oscillation schedules (password protected)
  7. Storage of 10 programs with 20 steps each
  8. Real time overrides of weld amperage, weld volts, powder flow rate, and oscillation width
  9. Manual or AVC voltage control
  10. Precision stepper motor driven cross-slides for oscillation and torch position
  11. 2 user defined inputs and outputs
  12. User control of the complete welding process including continuous and pulse welding modes
  13. Simple touch screen user interface for entering data, programming and general operations
The programming feature allows the user to program up to 20 steps of welding sequences. Each step contains a welding schedule, an oscillation schedule, an event and an action. When a step is executed it loads the oscillation and welding schedules and executes these schedules until the user-defined event takes place. The event can be based on time or it can triggered be either of the 2 user inputs. When an event is triggered the program will then execute the user-defined action. The action can be to continue and move to the next step, to stop and wait on the user to restart the program, or to end the program. When the program moves to the next step the user can define a new set of welding and oscillation schedule, events and actions.
