APPLICATIONS

STANDARD MIG/MAG WELDINGArc welding by using a wired electrode where both arc and welding pool are protected from atmospherethanks to a shielding gas protection provided by an external source.

FLUX CORED WIRE MIG/MAG WELDING

Welding by flux cored wires is about a metallic coating and a soul made of powders. As per standard

MIG/MAG welding, the arc is protected from atmosphere by a shielding gas.

NO-GAS FLUX CORED WIRE MIG/MAG WELDING

Welding by flux cored wires is about a metallic coating and a core made of powders. Otherwise of standard

MIG/MAG welding, the arc is self protected from the powders contained in the core and it is always used

a continuous current with direct polarity (torch connected to negative pole “-“).

ELECTRODE/MMA MANUAL WELDINGMMA welding uses the electric arc generated between consumable electrode and fusion pool. It doesn’tuse any protection gas, in fact the atmosphere protection comes from the electrode.

GOUGINGThe gouging uses the arc creation between a consumable electrode made by carbon/graphite and liquidfusion pool which is expelled by a jet of compressed air; usually used to remove welding; pay attention tospecial torches use.

Selecting this option will take you to the welding screen:

Voltage: it allows to change the reference tension used for welding.

Deposit: Used to modify the deposit of filler material (wire speed) compared to the predetermined

synergic value.

Inductance: Used to modify the speed of variation of the welding current to obtain a harder arc

(low values) or softer arc (high values).

2t-4t: Used to set the operating mode to 2 times or 4 times.

• 2t: In 2 time operating mode the machine welds for the entire time the torch button is held down.

• 4t: In 4 time operating mode pressing the torch button once starts the weld and pressing it a

second time ends the weld.

Start/end level: Used to activate (ON) or deactivate (OFF) the mode with the initial and final current.

Start level: Used to set the initial value as a percentage of the welding current (e.g. 130% implies

Is=1,30xI1).

Start level time: Used in 2t mode to set the time the initial current ls is applied.

Ls->l1 slope: Used to set the duration of the current ramp from the initial level Is to the welding current I1.

L1->le slope: Used to set the duration of the current ramp from the welding current I1 to the final level Ie.

End level: Used to set the final current as a percentage of the welding current (e.g. 80% implies If=0.80xI1)

End level time: Used in 2t mode to set the time of application of the final current Ie.

Spot welding: Used to set (if other than 0) the maximum duration of the weld.

Pause: Used to set (if other than 0) the duration of the pause between two successive spot welds.

Pre-gas time: Used to set the time for delivery of gas before striking the electric arc.

Post-gas time: Used to set the time of gas delivery after the welding current has stopped.

Burn back: Used to vary the burnback time of the wire at the end of the weld.

Soft start: it allows to set the approach wire speed. The more is high the set value the more the

approach will be soft (low wire speed).

Hot start: it allows to change the time during trigger current is provided referring to the defined

value by the synergic curve.
