Appendix C

Upper Tool Vacuum

As an aid in holding the spinning part, the welder can optionally be equipped with vacuum in the up- per tool by installing a vacuum system kit (#438- 963 for models SVT032VR & SVT042VR; and #438-964 for model SVT012VR).

This kit includes all components needed to gener- ate, control, and transfer the vacuum to the tool us- ing an external compressed air supply (not provid- ed with welder). It mounts to the welder as shown in Figure C-1.

The spin tool must be designed to interface with the kit. In addition, the welder must be configured to work with certain features of the kit. Please re- fer to DUKANE document 403-580 (Servo Spin Welder Vacuum System User Guide) for further details.
