The Power Feed 10S series of Automatic Wire Drives are specially designed for hard automation, submerged arc welding. The heavy-duty gear box and feed plate are well-known in the industry for years of reliable performance. Now featuring a new high-torque, permanent magnet motor with more power and even more reliable performance under high heat conditions, The Power Feed 10S series wire drives are the most rugged in the industry.

Single or Tandem Arc

Power Feed 10S (K2370-1) (3/32 to 7/32 in. solid wire)

The Power Feed 10S is required to mount to a TC-3 undercarriage for moving parts. It has many axes of rotation for ease of fixturing and locating. Sturdy feed plate houses knurled drive rolls for positive accurate wire feeding of large diameter welding wire (includes flux hopper, wire straightener cross seam adjuster, head mounting hardware, and 2-5ft 4/0 weld cables).

(95:1 Gear Ratio Conversion Kit included.)

Power Feed 10SF (K2312-1)

(3/32 to 7/32 in. solid wire) Use the Power Feed 10SF for fixed hard automation applications. Fixture mount wire drive assembly includes motor, gearbox, drive rolls, guidelines and straightener (fixture builder's head with wire straightener - insulators not included).

(95:1 Gear Ratio Conversion Kit included.)

TC-3 Travel Carriage (K325S, F, HCS or HCF)

The self-propelled travel carriage carries the wire feed head and Power Feed 10A in either direction on a beam. It can operate manually or automatically with the weld controls. The TC-3 comes in two speed ranges (S and F) in standard or high capacity (HC) models. The standard carriage is equipped for one wire feed head, and the high capacity carriage is for multi-head systems.

• Standard Carriage

– K3255S: 5-75 ipm (0.1-1.9 m/min.)

K3255F: 15-270 ipm (0.4-6.9 m/min.)

High Capacity Carriage – K325 HCS: 5-75 ipm (0.1-1.9 m/min.)

K325 HCF: 15-270 ipm (0.4-6.9 m/min.)

Conversion Kit Power Feed 10SM (K2311-1)

For use with NA Series Gear Head. The ArcLink™ motor retrofit is used to replace existing motor on NA-3/4 OR NA-5 wire feed head.

(95:1 Gear Ratio Conversion Kit included.)

Multiple Arc

Systems Interface (K2282-1)

This external controller is required for multi-arc applications. The arc-to-arc interaction is controlled by offsetting the phase relationship in 90° increments, as each arc is added.

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 and Power Feed 10A can easily integrate into a customer-supplied PLC system. Motion of the TC-3 travel carriage can be controlled from the PLC, while individual weld controls such as mode selection, amperage, and voltage are still controlled from the Power Feed 10A.
