PERFORMANCE
•Designed for robotic and hard automation for the automotive,
transportation, fabrication, furniture, lawn and garden, and agri-
cultural industries, among others.
•Digital communication between the power source and the wire
feeder for demanding robotic applications.
•Braking system minimizes wire sticking in the puddle for smooth
finishes.

WHAT IS NEXTWELD™?
ArcLink™ and FANUC Robotics
ArcLink is a digital communications protocol for sharing information
between intelligent components in an arc welding system. Power
Wave products and FANUC robotic systems interfaced with ArcLink™
provide the following benefits over Analog-Digital Interface:
•Common user interface on Teach Pendant eliminates the
requirement for any user panel on the power source.
•Teach Pendant can display actual volts, wire feed speed, etc. in
process specific units.
•No setup function is required. The Robot is an ArcLink device and
recognizes which power source is connected.
•Process procedures reside in the power source database and can
be searched by process and material type directly on the Teach
Pendant.
•High speed CAN 2.0B interface provides robust industrial network
with collision detection and active/general connection states.
•Switch among eight modes (CV, Pulse, Pulse-On-Pulse, etc.)
dynamically on the fly based on weld requirements.
•Arc start response time of 5/10 msec or less.
•FANUC’s FAStart provides 300 msec arc start improvement over
other systems, 100 msec arc end improvement resulting in time
savings of 400 msec per weld.
•Touch Sensing Performance of 100 mm/sec search speed with
.045 steel wire.
•Touch Sensing does not require additional hardware.
•ArcTool Control software enables true weld sequencer commands
motion and weld procedures.
•Detailed power source Fault & Alarm information available on the
Teach Pendant.
•Ability to monitor and download software to the power source
through the Ethernet connection on FANUC’s R-J3iB controller.
New procedures can be sent to any and all machines over the
network.
•Full support of Lincoln diagnostic packages through R-J3iB
Ethernet port.
•FANUC TAST performance is available with no additional
hardware to provide updates of actual weld current and voltage
at 250 Hz for improved seam tracking performance.
•Calibration between robot and power source is not required.
