Operational reliability and tips for the user
Proper use
Improper use
The tilting turntables in the FTT range are used exclusively to move and
position workpieces. Any use above and beyond this purpose is deemed improper. The
manufacturer shall not be liable for any
damage resulting from such improper use. Such use is at the sole risk of the machine
operator.
Proper use also includes:
- Following all the information in the operating instructions
- Carrying out all maintenance work at the appropriate intervals
- Keeping a service book with the most important information (date, operator, activities
carried out)
- Using the spare parts stipulated by Fronius
- If integrated into a system, using this document in combination with the operating
instructions for the integrated system components (power source, wire-feed unit, etc.)
IMPORTANT! The equipment must only be used for its intended purpose, and must
always be kept in perfect condition in terms of its safety features. This is the only way to
ensure that the equipment remains operationally reliable.
Any use of the machine other than for its intended purpose shall be deemed improper
use. This includes:
- Transporting people and animals
- Standing on the machine or using it as a work platform
- As a storage surface for tools
- Use outside the permitted technical operating limits
- Use in hazardous areas
Conversions or
modications
Operating
instructions
If the user carries out any unauthorised conversion or modication of the equipment, any
liability or warranty from the manufacturer is invalidated.
The electromagnetic characteristics of the equipment can be adversely affected by any
kind of addition or modication. No modications or upgrades to the equipment should
therefore be undertaken without rst consulting the manufacturer and receiving written
approval.
The operating instructions help you to use the machine efciently and must be accessible at all times:
- Keep the various sections of the operating instructions near the machine at all times.
- Clearly mark the place where the instructions are kept.
- Ensure that all persons using the machine know where the operating instructions are
located.
- The operating instructions will only be able to help you if you can nd them when
there is a problem!
IMPORTANT! The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage arising from failure to
observe the operating instructions.
15
Duty to instructThe machine operator must, before they start work, train and instruct everyone working on
the machine about:
- the theoretical and practical aspects of the use of the welding table
- the relevant safety regulations.
Steps must be taken to ensure that only properly trained, qualied persons operate the
machine. They must be familiar with:
- the function of each of the machine components and
- the operation of all electrical and mechanical machine control elements.
IMPORTANT! This obligation applies in particular to persons who only work occasionally
on the machine (for set-up, maintenance, etc.)
Personal
protective
equipment
Third-party
and untrained
personnel
Keys
The plant operator must ensure that that no one may enter the danger areas without the
correct work clothing and suitable protective equipment.
IMPORTANT! Ensure that the appropriate information signs are put up in the access
areas to the machine!
Do not allow unauthorised persons access to the machine!
- Visitors or untrained persons may only approach the machine if accompanied by
trained personnel.
- Display a "No unauthorised access" sign at appropriate locations in the access areas
to the machine.
- Ensure that the machine is only operated under supervision and is locked when the
operator leaves.
Access by unauthorised persons must be prevented or there will be a risk of serious accidents.
The following components can be locked:
- Control cabinet
- Main switch on control cabinet
The control cabinet is supplied with a key as standard.
IMPORTANT! The machine operator must lock the main switch using a padlock.
NOTE! The keys may only be given to persons who are responsible for, and
trained in, the relevant areas. If unauthorised persons gain access to the machine then lethal hazards can arise that will affect everyone in the vicinity.
The following measures regarding the whereabouts of keys must be put in place by the
machine operator:
- Keep a record of who was given which key and when
- Keep unused keys locked away in a suitable place (key cabinet).
- Instruct users that machines should be locked if not being used, even for a short time
and
- When the machine is unattended, all keys should be kept safely by the persons responsible.
- Check regularly to ensure that these measures are being implemented.
16
Securing
electrical
systems
- Only trained technicians may access the electrical working areas and any access by
unauthorised persons must be prevented.
- Display a warning sign in a suitable location if not already present.
- Cordon off electrical working areas during assembly, repair, maintenance, etc. to
ensure that no unauthorised persons can enter.
Operating pneumatic
equipment
Exposure to
noise and
vibration
On machines with integral pneumatic equipment, observe the following:
- The operating air pressure must not exceed 8 bar unless other operating pressure
values are specied in the machine's operating instructions.
- Fluctuations in compressed air result in erratic operation of the device.
- Contaminated compressed air shortens the service life of pneumatic components.
A maintenance list for pneumatic components has therefore been included in the operating instructions.
- Keep the ambient air free from: dust, acids, corrosive gases or substances.
- Cylinders and other pneumatic components must only be dismantled by Froniustrained
service technicians.
- When commissioning machines note that valves may have undened switching positions. This may result in uncontrolled movements. Always remain at a safe distance!
- Before you start work on the pneumatic equipment, the compressed air should be
switched off, the machine vented, and measures taken to prevent it being switched
back on.
It is not possible to provide a workplace-related emission value during welding
(or cutting) as this is inuenced by both the process and the environment.
It depends on a range of different parameters, such as:
- welding process (MIG/MAG welding, TIG welding)
- the type of power selected (DC or AC)
- the power range
- the type of weld metal
- the resonance characteristics of the workpiece
- the workplace environment, etc.
Machine
movements
going
unnoticed
Protective
covers
Positioning machines usually move slowly in comparison to other types of industrial machine, but the same safety rules apply. The machine is tted with a motor-driven rotating
positioner, which could easily hit an unsuspecting person in the working area. Whenever
the operator leaves the machine, it must be set to 'STOP'. Due to the low
speed at which it runs, the operator could leave the machine without noticing that it is still
running. All persons who operate the machine must wear
protective equipment required for this type of operation.
All rotating parts on the positioning machine are tted with protective covers and safety
devices. These must always be tted to the appropriate parts when the machine is in operation. If a protective device is removed for maintenance purposes, it must be replaced
before starting to operate the machine again.
17
Additional
safety
measures
The operator alone is responsible for the immediate working environment. The following
safety measures must be put in place and employed:
- Enclosing the machine and/or the workplace.
- Light curtains (protective, opaque, non-reective and reproof)
- Extraction and ltration equipment to reduce gas and vapour build-up should be
specied by a specialist company and implemented by the customer.
- Eye protection must be worn when welding
- Shipping the workpiece to the site
- Shipping the workpiece from the site
- Ensuring that workers are wearing personal protective equipment while welding
Local
regulations
In some countries, local statutory regulations may apply that are not included in these
operating instructions.
It is the duty of the plant operator to be aware of and comply with any local statutory
regulations.
This relates primarily to regulations concerning:
- Accident prevention
- Machine safety
- Protection of personnel (protective equipment)
- Environmental protection
- Electrical system

FTT tilting turntable
The FTT tilting turntable is used to manually position (turn, tilt) workpieces and for
mechanised welding. The machine has a rotation axle and a tilting axle with a range of
135°. Turning and tilting can take place separately or simultaneously. The face plate can
rotate through 360° in all tilt positions. This does not apply to load congurations with
large workpieces or workpieces with an irregular shape that stick out over the edge of the
tilting turntable. On the 'MO' model the face plate is tilted by a motor, on the 'MA' model it
is tilted manually using a handwheel.
In the case of manual welding, the remote control is used to manually turn and tilt the
workpiece until it is in the correct position for welding, and then rotation is started. The
remote control is also used to stop rotation.
In the case of mechanised welding, the tilting turntable is controlled and operated
by a higher-level external control system. This control system mechanises welding
by conguring the machine parameters and integrating the machine into a program
sequence.
IMPORTANT! Each model has its own individual load-bearing capacity. For detailed
information about maximum load values for the tilting turntable, see the "Machine data"
and "Load curves" sections.

Commissioning
Characteristics
of the installation
site
Space requirements
Foundations
Foundations:
-level and rm
Environment:
-not outdoors
-not in a hazardous area
-not in an area of increased electrical risk (including working
in boilers, narrow spaces, in restricted areas, between or on electrically conductive
parts, in damp or hot rooms).
NOTE! The venting duct in the control cabinet (air inlet, air outlet) is a very
important safety feature. When choosing the installation site, ensure that
the cooling air can enter and exit unhindered through the air ducts. Any
electroconductive metallic dust (e.g. from grinding work) must not be allowed to
get sucked into the machine. The machine operator must ensure that there is a
sufcient circulation of air through the entire machine.
For detailed information on machine dimensions, see the "Machine data" section.
If the foundations are made of concrete, check the following:
-currently applicable national building regulations
-the concrete must be free of cracks and the concrete quality must full the following
standards:
-a) B25 according to DIN 1045:1988 (standard valid until 31.12. 2004)
-b) C20 / 25 according to DIN EN 206-1:2001 / DIN 1045-2:2001 (standard valid
from 01.01.2005)
-Load-bearing capacity of the oor
-Total weight of the machine and the clamped workpiece
Stability
The machine must be used and operated in such a way that it remains stable. For
example, stability can be adversely affected by:
-overload
-soft ground
-sudden acceleration
-when working on steep slopes
To ensure the machine remains stable when it is used and operated, the machine operator
may need to adapt working methods to the local site conditions:
► Prevent the machine from being moved unintentionally, e.g. by a fork-lift truck.
► Prevent vibration and oscillation during operation.
► Ensure that loads are moved as close to the oor as possible (low centre of gravity).
► To ensure stability at maximum load, anchor the machine to a rm foundation. It should
be anchored to all the drill holes on the main body of the machine using the heavy-duty
anchors supplied.
53
Stability
(continued)
To ensure the required anchoring forces are reliably generated, observe the specied
dimensions for the concrete foundation, as shown in the diagram below:
(1) Concrete quality according to B25 or
C20 / 25

cooling performance is inadequate. The
components in the control cabinet are not
being sufciently cooled. This might be
caused by dust contaminating the lter
mat.
Clean the lter mat once a week:
1. Remove lter mats
2. Use dry compressed air at reduced
pressure to clean the lter mat
3. Ret lter mats
Rotary motor
Gearbox
The motor is tted with sealed ball bearings and therefore requires no lubrication.
The liquid grease or gear oil in the gearbox should be changed after approx. 2000
operating hours. After a lengthy period of operation the gearbox worm shaft may show
signs of axial play, resulting in the workpiece running jerkily. This can be rectied by
inserting appropriate discs on the pin of the worm shaft.
IMPORTANT! Detailed information on maintenance can be found in the gear motor
operating instructions ("Inspection/Maintenance" section).
68
Cogs
The pair of cogs in the headstock and also the toothed section for the tilting action should
be greased with a standard grease after every 100 operating hours.
NOTE! The diagram below shows the FTT-380/MA for example purposes. The
layout and assembly of protective covers may look different from the machine
type you are using.
NOTE! Never attempt to remove or adjust a machine part while there is a workpiece on the face plate.
1. Before carrying out maintenance, remove the following protective covers from the
machine:
- Cog rotary unit
- Tilting pinion
2. Remove deposits with a cleaning cloth and carry out maintenance at (C). Keep the
geared drive free of dust and other deposits.

IMPORTANT! Never use a wire brush or
a screwdriver on copper parts.
2. Check the contact surface between the
sliding contact and the contact
washer (E1). The sliding contact
should make contact via the compression spring with the contact washer
across its entire surface. Check the
spring force of the compression spring.

Check the machine regularly. Tighten all nuts and bolts that could have become loose
over the course of time or that did not have screw locking agent reapplied after removal.
Lubricate all roller pedestal bearings and roller bearing heads. The grease must be free
of impurities, e. g. acids or alkalis, dust, rust, metal particles or grinding materials.
- Pump the grease slowly until a slight bead forms around the seals. The bead indicates that lubrication is adequate and also provides protection from penetration by
dirt.
- If the machine is shut down for any length of time, applying fresh grease beforehand
will ensure maximum protection for the bearing bushes.
Bronze bush
option
In the case of bronze bushes that have lubricating nipples, grade 2 grease should be
pumped into the bearing until clean grease emerges from the bush.
IMPORTANT! As different applications are possible, the lubrication interval is not
specied. The time between one lubrication round and the next is dictated by practical
experience with the machine.
