Fault 20109: Feeder: Timeout feeding tube


Description The weld unit signals a feeding cycle that has been carried out in an improper manner.

The stud arrival sensor did not detect a stud with stud feeding optimization active
If the stud feeding optimization is switched on, then the system waits for the signal of the stud arrival sensor
during the stud feed cycle. This returns a signal as soon as the stud passes the sensor on the weld head.

Check whether a stud arrival sensor is available on the weld head while the stud feeding optimization is
switched on
The stud arrival sensor is an option on the weld head. This must be available in order to use the stud
feeding optimization. If no stud arrival sensor is available, this must be deactivated.

Check whether the stud arrival sensor is supplied with voltage


If the stud arrival sensor is present, then you can check the power supply via the green control LED
