PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder unit con- sists of a user interface and two wire drives. This unit will be available as a bench model or a boom model.

The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder is a high performance, digitally controlled, modular wire feeder. Properly equipped, it can support the GMAW, GMAW- P, FCAW, SMAW, GTAW, and STT processes. The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder is designed to be a part of a modular, multi process welding system. The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder is a Semi- Automatic unit that is designed to interface with the Power Wave M family of welding machines. It consists of a user interface (UI) and wire drive (WD) that oper- ate on 40VDC input power. The user interface is designed to act as a means to access the functionality (weld mode, run-in, volts, current etc.) of the welding system. The wire drive unit is a 4 driven roll feeder that can "push" various types of welding wire.

Each component in the system has special circuitry to "talk with" the other system components, so each component (power source, wire feeder, electrical accessories) knows what the other is doing at all times. This shared information lays the groundwork for a system with superior welding performance.

DUAL HEAD UNIT

Two Control PC boards: one board supports user interface and wire drive functions and second board supports second wire drive functions.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND EQUIPMENT

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder can be set up in a number of configurations. They are designed to be used for GMAW, GMAW-P, FCAW and STT processes for a variety of materials, including mild steel, stainless steel, and cored wires. Other process- es such as STT, SMAW and GTAW can be controlled using the user interface portion of the unit. (See Accessories Section for Part numbers and connec- tions.

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

The Power Feed™ 10M Dual Wire Feeder must be used with communication compatible welding equip- ment. That is, the communication protocol that is used in the welding system must be capable of communi- cating with the wire feeder. This would be any power source that has the Arclink receptacle available and is operating with LincNet or Arclink software.
