Waveform Control Technology
The future of welding is here.
®
Equipped with our most up-to-date welding programs,
Waveform Control Technology systems suit the
majority of welding applications. The flexibility of
choosing from a variety of welding programs not only
increases productivity, but also promotes consistently
high-quality welds.
Power MIG 300, Invertec V350-PRO, and
Power Wave welding systems are all Waveform
Control Technology systems. They come fully loaded
with a software library that is accessible from the
user interface. With the Power Wave, software
programming enables the flexibility of uploading the
weld programs to a PC, or Ethernet and DeviceNet
applications (hard automation).
General Weld Programs Steel Weld Programs
*These programs may not be available in certain machines.
Steel Welding Application
The programs listed in the following tables were
developed by Lincoln Electric.* It is important to note
that, although we attempted to provide a broad
operating window for each program, they were
developed using Lincoln consumables. Therefore,
Lincoln Electric cannot guarantee that these
procedures will operate at optimum level when used
with non-Lincoln Electric electrodes.
A mode number is assigned to each weld program.
The following lists include the most commonly used
weld programs, and are grouped according to
material. Find the mode number for your material and
program specifications, then select that mode
number on the welding system user interface.
