AC/DC Submerged Arc Welding	4/6

Using AC/DC

Power Wave® AC/DC 1000™ multi-arc welding is being used for:

•Longitudinal and spiral pipe mills

•Mold rebuilding

•Structural material for bridges and offshore platforms

•Pressure vessels

•Shipbuilding

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is designed to be easily paralleled for welding applications that require higher amperage. Each Power Wave AC/DC 1000 provides 1000 amps of AC or DC output at 100% duty cycle and can be paralleled to any desired capacity.

Hard Automation

For repeatable, high-deposition, quality welds, the Power Wave AC/DC 1000 coupled with a PLC provides a reliable hard automation welding solution. The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 can easily be connected to a PLC with the standard Ethernet/DeviceNet gateway board (which is included in the Power Wave AC/DC 1000). The Ethernet/DeviceNet gateway board also allows the system to be tracked and monitored from a remote location, over a network.
