DEFINITION OF WELDING TERMS
NON-SYNERGIC WELDING MODES
•
A Non-synergic welding mode requires all welding
process variables to be set by the operator.
SYNERGIC WELDING MODES
•
A Synergic welding mode offers the simplicity of
single knob control. The machine will select the cor-
rect voltage and amperage based on the wire feed
speed (WFS) set by the operator.
