X5 FastMig
Operating manual - EN
Pre gas
0.0 ... 9.9 s, step 0.1
0.0 = OFF
Welding function that starts the shielding
gas flow before the arc ignites. This
ensures that the metal does not come
into contact with air at the start of the
weld. Time value is preset by the user.
Used for all metals, but especially for
stainless steel, aluminum and titanium.
Creep start
10...90 %, step 1
The Creep start function defines the wire
feed speed before the welding arc
ignites, that is, before the filler wire
comes in contact with the workpiece.
When the arc ignites, the wire feed speed
is automatically switched to the normal
user-set speed. The Creep start function
is always on.
Crater fill
ON/OFF
When welding with high power, a crater
is usually formed at the end of the weld.
The Crater fill function decreases the
welding power / wire feed speed at the
end of the welding job so that the crater
can be filled using a lower power level.
With MIG process, Crater fill duration,
wire feed speed and voltage are preset
by the user.
When the wire feed speed is less than 5
m/min, the adjustment step is 0.05 and
when the wire feed speed is 5 m/min or
more, the adjustment step is 0.1.
For 1-MIG process, refer to the 1-MIG
parameter table.
- Crater fill time
0.0 ... 10.0 s, step 0.1
Default = 1.0 s
- Crater fill wire feed speed
0.5 ... 25.0 m/min, step 0.05 or 0.1
Default = 5 m/min
- Crater fill voltage
450A: 10 ... 45 V
500A: 10 ... 50 V
Step 0.1 V
Default = 18V
Post gas
0.0 ... 9.9 s, step 0.1
0.0 = OFF
Welding function that continues the
shielding gas flow after the arc has extin-
guished. This ensures that the hot weld
does not come into contact with air after
the arc is extinguished, protecting the
weld and also the electrode. Used for all
metals. Especially stainless steel and
titanium require longer post gas times.
Wire feed speed
0.50 ... 25 m/min, step 0.05 or 0.1
Default = 5.00 m/min
Wire feed speed adjustment. When the
wire feed speed is less than 5 m/min, the
adjustment step is 0.05 and when the
wire feed speed is 5 m/min or more, the
adjustment step is 0.1.
Wire feed speed min
Min/Max = 0.5 ... 25 m/min, step 0.1
Default = 0.5 m/min
Minimum and maximum limits for the
wire feed speed adjustment.
Wire feed speed max
Min/Max = 0.5 ... 25 m/min, step 0.1
Default = 25 m/min
Voltage min
Min/Max = According to welding equip-
ment specifications, step 0.1
Minimum and maximum limits for the
welding voltage adjustment.
These parameters are available for adjust-
ment in MIG only. In 1-MIG the voltage is
defined by welding program.
Voltage max
Min/Max = According to welding equip-
ment specifications, step 0.1
