GMAW SETUP
ALUMMIG
230
The synergic welding modes for no pulse, single pulse and dual pulse allow ease of
setup with this machine by selecting the welding consumable type then setting the
thickness on the main welding screen. The program then can be fine-tuned for the
joint type and welding position using the trim and other functions. The synergic mode
makes setting up fast by it must be stressed that it is only a guide and some
fine-tuning may or may not be needed depending on the job type.
1.
From the main welding, menu select synergic, single pulse or dual pulse.
NOTE:
Aluminium can only be welded in single or dual pulse GMAW modes.
2.
Select the torch trigger mode and welding program using the P button on the
front panel.
SYNERGIC WELDING MODES
To use the machine in Synergic mode first you need to select the correct program for
the wire being used. On this screen, the machine will also show the gas needed and
polarity needed. EP is electrode positive EN is electrode negative.
1.
Select the Synergic welding mode from the main screen.
2.
Press the P button to select the trigger mode used such as 2T
3.
Press the P button again to select the correct program for the wire being used.
PROGRAM SETTINGS
The welding parameters for each synergic program has been set in the factory to be as
accurate as possible and is a good starting point. In saying this the material thickness
selector is only to be used as a guide as different joint types, welding positions, welding
techniques and machine settings will require different heat inputs.
ADJUSTING THE TRIM
The wire feed speed/welding amps setting relates to the thickness selector in the
bottom left of the screen. Increasing the wire feed speed will also increase welding
amperage allowing thicker sections to be welded.
