DEFINITIONS OF WELDING MODES

NON-SYNERGIC WELDING MODES

•A Non-synergicwelding mode requires all welding process variables to be set by the operator.

SYNERGIC WELDING MODES

•A Synergic welding mode offers the simplicity of single knob control. The machine will select the cor- rect voltage and amperage based on the wire feed speed (WFS) set by the operator.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

General Physical Description

The Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder is a mod- ular wire feeder, consisting of two components - a wire drive and a control box - are available assem- bled as a bench unit or as a boom system. High speed, highly reliable digital cables connect the com- ponents together and to the Power Wave power source.

The Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder system has the ability to connect multiple wire feeders to one power source, use the same power source to weld in two different locations (not simultaneously), or load a different electrode on each feeder to eliminate change over time.

The powerful four roll wire drive system sets the industry standard for ease of use. Its patented design allows for tool-less change out of wire guides and drive rolls greatly reducing set up time.

General Functional Description

•The Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder is a highly versatile wire feeder with easy to use fea- tures that make it easy for the operator to adjust the arc for specific preferences.

•The new MSP4 panel clearly displays key welding information. Use the MSP4 panel to quickly adjust weld settings, arc starting parameters, arc end para- meters and set-up variables.

•The Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder wire feeder is provided with an infrared red (IR) port. Transferring welding settings from one wire feeder to another is accomplished with a common palm computer.

•When the Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder is coupled to a Power Wave welding power source, the result is a welding system with absolutely supe- rior arc performance.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The Power Feed™ 10M Single Wire Feeder is well suited for all MIG welding processes, giving premium arc performance especially with unusual alloys and out of position work.
