AUTOMATED SOLUTIONS
The Power Wave 455M Robotic is a high performance, digitally controlled inverter power
source designed for robotic, hard automation and semiautomatic applications. It is designed
to be part of a modular, multi-process welding system that can be arranged in a variety of
ways for optimum, customized performance and easy maintenance. Optional DeviceNet™
and Ethernet communication modules provide networking capabilities and allow the
power sources to communicate with other industrial machines to create a highly integrated
and flexible welding cell. Available as a standard model or with Lincoln’s STT® process
for applications in which heat input control, minimal distortion, reduced spatter and low
fumes are essential.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Recommended General Options
• Program your own waveform or choose from over 60 standard
welding waveform programs that offer a broad range of electrode
size, type and shielding gas combinations to give you optimal
appearance, penetration, beadshape and travel speed for each
application.
• Modular design enables robotic, hard automation and semiauto-
matic applications using a single machine platform.
• Optional communication modules provide networking capabilities
via DeviceNet or Ethernet.
• Utilizes ArcLink™ - the leading digital communication protocol
for welding, making it the best choice for seamless, time critical
integration to the power source and networked equipment.
• Software based controls can be upgraded as new features
become available.
• Process and production monitoring with access to real time
(500Hz) feedback such as arc current, voltage and wire feed
speed. Access to internal data acquisition (10KHz) and access
to real time machine status such as fault/alarm conditions and
arc time.
• A Power Wave inverter operates at a high efficiency (88-90%)
with a 95% minimum power factor
(
1)
and is capable of operat-
ing from a universal input voltage (208 to 575 volts).
• Power Wave 455M/STT features Lincoln’s Surface Tension
Transfer® Process, which controls heat input for great penetra-
tion and reduced spatter and fumes.
