Optical fiber welding mechanical and electrical great change of the correct understanding and cleaning and maintenance,

Optical fiber welding mechanical and electrical great change of the correct understanding and cleaning and maintenance - 2016 11 - 02 electrode rod is an important component of the welding machine inside, discharge welding is done through electrode stick, but there are a lot of people don't know about electrode stick is consumables, reach a certain life need to be replaced, then I will introduce the importance of electrode rods to replace for you, and some knowledge of life. First to know about the electrode stick aging process, the electrode stick with the naked eye observation is similar to the very tip of a needle, although itself metal material is hard and there will be no external force wear and tear, but due to long time under high temperature electric discharge, so the starting discharge apex, inevitably will slowly loss, of course it is an ideal state. Electrode great loss in the process of actual use as shown in the figure below, because of high energy heat discharge process of glass fiber itself ion diffusion, adsorption to the electrode bar apex, formed a conductive insulating material, in use for a period of time with the naked eye can be observed on the rod electrode these impurities. Insulating film production will make the arc to avoid the discharge, so the wastage of the original start from the top, it is possible to start from the back of the, in the long term will intensify electrode bar apex of the wear rate, make its become very irregular. That in this case, the original have triggered the tip of the two stable arc, becomes unstable, on the welding machine is likely to alarm, Discharge the left or right) So that it can't provide the stable source of heat for the welding of the fiber, the final welding loss will not be ideal. So the service life of electrode bar may not be as long as we imagine, in case of the above situation, in order to guarantee the quality of welding, must be replaced new electrode rod. And choose the original electrode bar is also very important, fake electrode stick is not capable of high temperature material, size is differ, such as abnormal, so not only the life of the electrode rod itself will be very short, but due to the possible causes of the discharge voltage is not stable, will bring the inside of the welding machine power device burden, or even damage. Electrode rod wear, of course, under the influence of many external factors, such as air humidity, temperature and the material of the fiber, and so on, so the rod electrode life under different working conditions may differ a lot, although our manufacturer has recommended the use of number, but still recommended users according to their actual usage to determine the frequency of replacement. Then often discharge correction also helps to prolong the life of electrode bar and improve the quality of welding. Electrode rod electrode surface will be clean for long time use attach to impurities, affect the discharge effect, so the need for regular cleaning electrode. Specific operation is as follows: ( 1) Long press power key to turn it off, the power indicator light. （ 2) It by a thin cotton swabs with alcohol gently wipe the tip of the electrode. （ 3) Press power key to open welding machine, the power indicator. （ 4) In [ Equipment maintenance] Select [ Clean the electrode] 。 （ 5) Press the start key, welding machines, automatic discharge, 5 times the impurity on the surface of the electrode with large discharge current gasification, to achieve the effect of stable discharge current, cleaning electrode. Note: in the process of cleaning electrode, don't touch the tip of the electrode with good thing, avoid damage to the electrode, the welding effect.
