Waveform Control Weld Programs

TECHNOLOGY

3/8

Equipped with our most up-to-date welding programs, Waveform Control Technology systems suit the majority of welding applications. The flexibility of choosing from a variety of welding programs not only increases productivity, but also promotes consistently high-quality welds.

Power MIG 300, Invertec V350-PRO, and Power Wave welding systems are all Waveform Control Technology systems. They come fully loaded with a software library that is accessible from the user interface. With the Power Wave, software programming enables the flexibility of uploading the weld programs to a PC, or Ethernet and DeviceNet applications (hard automation).

The programs listed in the following tables were developed by Lincoln Electric.* It is important to note that, although we attempted to provide a broad operating window for each program, they were developed using Lincoln consumables. Therefore, Lincoln Electric cannot guarantee that these procedures will operate at optimum level when used with non-Lincoln Electric electrodes.

A mode number is assigned to each weld program. The following lists include the most commonly used weld programs, and are grouped according to material. Find the mode number for your material and program specifications, then select that mode number on the welding system user interface.
