1.2 INTRODUCTION

KempArc SYN is a product family for welding automation that includes all welding devices

needed in robot welding. The KempArc SYN welding system includes the following devices:

• KempArc SYN 300, SYN 400 and SYN 500 are synergetic welding power sources

designed particularly for welding automation that are suitable for MIG welding with

direct current. There are three power types of power sources: the 300, 400 and 500

ampere models. For more information on using power sources and their functions, see

"Power source".

• RF 59 is a control panel that contains the programs and welding parameters needed

in controlling the welding hardware. The panel functions allow the user to control the

operation of the welding hardware and adjust its welding settings. The control panel is

located in the front panel of the welding power source. For more information on using

the control panel and its functions, see "Control panel".

• KempArc DT 400 is a wire feeding device that feeds welding wire to the welding robot

at the speed it requires at any time. For more information on using the wire feeder and

its functions, see "Wire feeder".

This guide presents the functions, operation and technical properties of the above devices.

The devices also include the KempCool 10 cooler, but its functions and features are presented

in a separate guide.

The KempArc Synergic hardware is connected to the welding robot control system with the

control unit on top of the power source.
