1.2 About FastMig products

Kemppi FastMig™ MXF 63, MXF 65 and MXF 67 are wire feeders designed for demanding professional use. MXF 63 is intended for 200-mm wire spool, MXF 65 and MXF 67 for 300 mm wire spool. Wire feeders can be used with both FastMig Pulse and FastMig KMS power sources.

Alternative panels for MXF 63, 65 and 67 depend on the used power source i.e. FastMig KMS becomes compatible by connecting SF 51, SF 52W, SF 53W or SF 54 control panels with MXF wire feed unit, and in the case of PF 63 and PF 65 control panel FastMig Pulse power source can be connected. Operation of wire feed units are controlled and adjusted by microprocessor. By adding an optional synchronization unit (MXF Sync 65), SuperSnake sub-feeder device may be connected to MXF 63, 65 and 67.

This manual provides instructions on the start-up and use of the MXF 63, 65 and 67 MIG/MAG wire feeding units.

2.3 Assembly of MIG/MAG system

Assemble the units in the order mentioned below. Follow the additional mounting and operation instructions delivered with each package.

1. Installation of power source

Read paragraph: ”Installation” in the operation instructions for FastMig power sources, and complete the installation according to that advice.

2. Mounting of power sources to transport wagon

Read and follow the instructions given in the transport cart installation/assembly manual.

3. Mounting the FastMig MXF wire feed unit to the power source

Remove the cover sticker on top of the power source. Screw the fastening pivot into the power source – hand tighten only. Place the supplied plastic spacers over the pivot. Lift the MXF wire feeder into place, locating over the pivot.

4. Connecting cables

Connect the cables in accordance with the equipment notes provided in this manual. The polarity of the welding wire (+ or –) can be selected by connecting the wire feed unit to

either the positive or negative power source terminals. Most MIG/MAG applications run the wire feed unit connected to the positive terminal of the

power source.

5. Mounting FastMig wire feed units to boom and swing arms

When mounting wire feed units to boom and swing arms, the unit must be electrically isolated from both.

Suspension angle of wire feed unit can be changed by moving the xing point in handle.

FastMig MXF 63, 65, 67

2.4 Accessories corresponding to wire diameter

Colour coded wire feed rolls and guide tubes are available to suit a variety of ller wire types and sizes. Drive roll groove geometry and design, vary depending on the application. Further details are available in the spare parts tables.

Please ensure you select the correct drive rolls and guide tubes from the table to suit your particular welding application.

2.5 Welding gun selection

Please ensure that the welding gun selected is suitable for the target application. Check the gun manufacturers specication and ensure the gun meets the welding duty requirements. Also consider the extra heating eects of Pulse MIG/MAG welding on the gun selected.

Kemppi gun products are designed to meet many dierent applications. Special wire liners and contact tips are available for dierent wire types and sizes.

Distance wire feeding is accommodated with WeldSnake and SuperSnake products in either Gas or Water cooled models.

Thermal and load protection is also designed to some Kemppi Gun models and feed units, so carefully consider your requirements and consult your local Kemppi sales team to ensure you choose the correct alternative for your needs.

2.6 Mounting and locking of wire spool

NOTE! Check that in ller wire spool is correctly mounted and locked into position. Ensure the spool

is not damaged or deformed in such a way that it can rub or cha against the internal surface of the wire feed unit chassis or door. This may result in increased drag, impacting on weld quality. This may also result in long term wire feed unit damage, rendering the unit unserviceable or unsafe to use.

2.7 Loading the ller wire and automatic feed

Automatic wire feed makes wire spool changes faster. When changing the wire spool, the pressure of feed rolls need not be released.

Simply ensure that the groove of the feed roll matches the diameter of ller wire used. Release the wire end from the spool and cut o any deformed section. Be careful the wire does not spill from the spool sides.

Straighten about 20 cm of ller wire and ensure the tip has no sharp edges. File if necessary, as a sharp wire edge may damage the wire gun liner - particularly softer plastic liners.

Present the ller wire tip to the back of the wire feed rolls and press the wire inch switch on the wire feed panel. Feed the wire to the gun contact tip and prepare to weld.

NOTE! Smaller diameter ller wires may need to be loaded manually – with the feed roll pressure

arms released. This is because it is easy to over estimate the pressure required to feed these smaller ller wires. Too high feed roll pressures can easily deform ller wires and contribute to later feeding problems.

2.9 Wire liners

Designed to suit specic ller wire materials and applications, Kemppi liners support the ller wire and ensure reliable delivery to the welding arc. The liner selection tables describe gun type, ller material, liner colour, item code and gun length. Steel spiral liners carry the same colour coding as Kemppi machine feed rolls and drive rolls, making wire size, liner and drive roll matching easier if the gun is connected to Kemppi equipment. Steel spiral liners are suitable for welding solid and cored ller wires of corresponding wire diameter.

Kemppi DL Chili -Teon liners are the latest solution for reliable feeding of aluminium, stainless steel, acid-resistant and solid steel ller wires. Kemppi’s patented technology, two layer DL Chili liner material signicantly reduces friction loses between the ller wire material and liner wall, ensuring reliable and worry-free feeding for listed wires types, even in guns up to 8 meters in length. Please refer to the following tables to ensure accurate selection of liners for your chosen welding gun and application.

2.10 Adjustment of pressure arms

Adjust the drive pressure to the ller wire with the thumb screws mounted over the pressure arms. Notice the graduated scales indicating load. The load applied should be sucient to overcome a light braking force applied by hand to the ller wire, as it exits the welding gun contact tip.

For smaller diameter and soft ller wires, less feed pressure is required. It should be possible to apply a light breaking force to the ller wire by hand, as it exits the gun contact tip. But slightly more wire ow restriction should render the drives rolls to slip slightly over the ller wire without deforming the wire.

NOTE! Excessive pressure causes attening of the ller wire and damage to coated or cored ller

wires. It also causes undue wear of the feed rolls and increases gearbox load, so reducing service life.

2.11 Adjustment of spool brake

Brake force is adjusted through the hole behind the locking clip. Remove the locking clip by hand, and adjust the tension and pressure to the friction pads mounted inside with a screw driver. See diagram and location A.

The load applied varies depending on the size and weight of the ller wire and spool, but also the ller wire feed speed set. The heavier the wire spool and the faster the feed speed, the greater the need to increase the braking load. Adjust the pressure, secure the locking clip, set the wire feed speed and check that the braking force is enough to ensure the ller wire does not spill from the spool on overrun.

NOTE! Too much or unnecessary loads can impact welding quality, load and wear to the wire feed

system.

2.12 Burn back time

FastMig electronics controls the burn back time. When welding stops an automatic sequence ensures that the ller wire does not stick to the work piece and that no ball is formed at the wire tip, ensuring reliable re-ignition. This system works regardless of the wire feed speed set.

2.13 Earth return cable

Preferably the earth return cable and clamp should be connected directly to the welding material.

Always use a good quality, 70 mm

 heavy copper cable, and if possible a screw type 600 A

clamp. Ensure that the surface contact to the work piece is clean of metal oxide and or paint. Make sure the clamp is rmly secured.

2.14 Shielding gas

NOTE! Handle shielding gas bottle with care. Assess the risks associated with handling and using

compressed gas. Always use a cylinder transport carriage and secure the cylinder safely.

There are many dierent suppliers of quality shielding gases for welding. Please ensure that you are selecting the correct gas for your application. FastMig products uses welding programs for Synergic and Pulsed welding. These curves are created and recommend against a particular shielding gas.

Shielding gas eects welding performance and is a fundamental component to overall weld quality.

MMT 32

l/min

NOTE! Shielding gas ow rate from the welding gun is set according to the application, weld joint,

gas type and gas nozzle shape and size. The ow rate should be measured at the welding gun nozzle before welding via a rotameter, and normally measure's between 10 – 20 litres per minute for many welding applications.

FastMig MXF 63, 65, 67

2.14.1 Installing gas bottle

Always fasten the gas bottle properly in the vertical position, in a special holder against the wall or on a cylinder carriage. Remember to close gas bottle valve after welding.

2.15 Main switch I/O

When you turn the main switch of the FastMig power source into I-position, the pilot lamp closest to this switch will illuminate, indicating the power source is ready for welding. The equipment will return to the operation state as before the main switch was turned to the zero position.

Always start and switch o the machine with the main switch, never use the mains plug as a switch.

2.16 Operation of cooling unit, FastCool 10

When FastCool 10 is connected to the FastMig power source for the rst time, the cooler function is normally active. To deselect the cooler function, follow the instructions below depending on the power source type in use.

FastMig KMS

When leaving the factory, cooling unit status is set 'ON'. If no cooling unit is connected, set the cooling unit status to 'OFF'. Depending on your panel type follow the instructions described in the graphic below. Having selected the cooling state required, reset the power source by switching o at the main on/o switch.
