Tandem MIGTM
High-Speed and High-Deposition Welding
Low cost and profitability are key business objectives, whether the product offering is a wheel, a water tank, or a truck frame. It used to be thought that on the road to lower cost, quality had to be sacrificed. That’s no longer true with Tandem MIG welding.
The following factors affect pricing per welded part:
•Capital Equipment
•Overhead
•Labor cost
•Part production rates
Lincoln Tandem MIG welding systems are designed to produce quality welds at welding speeds well above accepted single wire processes. The unique engineered output control of the Tandem MIG dual wire process is designed to overcome the barriers limiting the travel speed capabilities of conventional single wire GMAW processes.
Fast travel speeds on thin
lap welds increase the number of parts per day.
Increased deposition on thicker materials reduces welding time and distortion.

INCREASED TRAVEL SPEEDS
•The combined contribution of two separate welding arcs in one weld pool provides the control to overcome the lack of follow tendencies of single arc processes.
INCREASED DEPOSITION
•Two small diameter Tandem MIG wire electrodes provide higher
IMPROVED THROUGHPUT
•Higher travel speeds and higher deposition rates reduce part welding time cycles.
