5.4 Trimming<br />

The pipe sections for trimming must be clamped to basic unit (cf. 4.1.3 Set up). Mount trimmer<br />

and switch on. Ensure that the trimmer is sits firmly.<br />

Trimming<br />

---------------------<br />

Use trimmer<br />

Start operation<br />

with OK<br />

---------------------<br />

Pressing the OK button activates the trimming procedure, i.e. the trimmer starts and the basic<br />

unit closes with the programmed pressure. If the clamping pressure is insufficient, use the<br />

joystick in adjust: move joystick to the left and reduce the pressure, move to the right to<br />

increase the pressure.<br />

Press the OK button to end the trimming procedure: the clamping pressure drops to minimum,<br />

the basic unit opens and the trimmer switches off. If necessary remove trimmer and place in<br />

carrying case.<br />

If you must repeat the trimming procedure, this can be done immediately by sliding the joystick<br />

to run position (restart trimmer – run). The program returns to the trimming procedure.<br />

5.5 Measuring kinematical pressure<br />

Press the OK button to measure the kinematical pressure.<br />

restart trimmer – run<br />

In the course of the kinematical pressure test the basic unit closes and the pressure continually<br />

increased. If the basic unit operates with a constant speed (upper bar graph) the system<br />

calculates the kinematical pressure. Test progress is indicated by the lower bar graph. After the<br />

basic unit has closed completely, the system produces a pressure that is higher than the<br />

adjustment pressure to verify the proper positioning and clamping of the pipe sections.<br />

Sight check:<br />

After workpieces have been moved into welding position, check whether the joint surfaces are<br />

plane, parallel and in true axial alignment. Should the joint surfaces show any misalignment,<br />

repeat the trimming procedure. For best results the workpiece ends should not be mismatched<br />

by more than 10% of the wall thickness and the maximum gap between the joint surfaces no<br />

more than 0.5 mm. This recommendation does not release you from your obligation to observe<br />

national welding guidelines.<br />

If you must repeat the trimming procedure, this can be done immediately by sliding the joystick<br />

to run position (restart trimmer – run). The program returns to the trimming procedure.<br />
