The Power Wave 455 is a high performance, digitally controlled inverter welding power source capable of complex,
Operating as a system, each component in the sys- tem has special circuitry to “talk with” the other sys- tem components, so each component (power source, wire feeder, electrical accessories) knows what the other is doing at all times. This shared information lays the groundwork for a system with superior weld- ing performance.
The Power Feed 10 is a four driven roll feeder that operates on 40 VDC input power, and is available configured in both boom and bench models. In addi- tion, the Control Box and wire feed unit can also be purchased separately. The bench model is designed so that it can easily be converted to a boom feeder.
