Introduction to WiseSteel
The WiseSteel function is based on modifying the conventional MIG/MAG arcs to enable higher quality of
welds. WiseSteel improves the arc control, reduces spatter and helps create an optimally-formed weld pool.
When using WiseSteel, different adjustment methods are applied at different power ranges (different arcs).
Within the short arc range, WiseSteel is based on adaptive short arc control; that is, the process adjusts the
short circuit ratio. This creates an easily-adjustable arc and less spatter. Within the short arc range, the shape
of the current is similar to the traditional short arc welding. When a short arc is used in vertical up welding
where weaving motion is applied, WiseSteel ensures good quality through adapting to the changes in the
stick-out length.
Using WiseSteel on globular arc range means that WiseSteel fluctuates the power between short arc and
spray arc at a low frequency, so that the average power stays within the globular arc range. This results in
less spatter than conventional globular arc welding, and a welding pool that enables excellent structural
durability.
Within the spray arc range, WiseSteel is based on adaptive arc length control, which keeps the arc optimally
short. WiseSteel also utilizes micro-pulsed welding current. This creates a well-formed weld pool that enables
excellent bead geometry and optimal penetration with smooth and durable joints, and speeds up the
work. The pulsing is not noticeable to the welder. The shape and control of the current are close to the
conventional spray arc welding.
