with Power Wave AC/DC 1000
Hard Automation
For repeatable, high-deposition, quality
welds, the Power Wave AC/DC 1000
coupled with a PLC provides a reliable
hard automation welding solution. The
Power Wave AC/DC 1000 can easily
be connected to a PLC with the
standard Ethernet/DeviceNet gateway
board (which is included in the Power
Wave AC/DC 1000). The
Ethernet/DeviceNet gateway board
also allows the system to be tracked
and monitored from a remote location,
over a network.

AC/DC 1000™ multi-arc welding is
being used for:
• Longitudinal and spiral pipe mills
• Mold rebuilding
• Structural material for bridges and offshore platforms
• Pressure vessels
• Shipbuilding
The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is designed to be
easily paralleled for welding applications that
require higher amperage. Each Power Wave
AC/DC 1000 provides 1000 amps of AC or DC
output at 100% duty cycle and can be paralleled
to any desired capacity.
