(STT) Process
Control Heat Input, Spatter and Fume
The revolutionary STT II power source combines high frequency inverter technology with
advanced Waveform Control Technology™ to provide a better welding solution than
traditional short arc MIG. Unlike CV MIG machines, the STT machine has no voltage control
knob. STT uses current controls to adjust the heat independent of the wire feed speed, so
changes in electrode extension do not affect heat. Low heat input welds can be produced
without overheating or burning through, and distortion is minimized. Spatter and fumes are
reduced because the electrode is not overheated — even when welding with larger
diameter wires and 100% CO
2
shielding gas.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Controlled penetration and outstanding heat input control — Ideal
for welding joints with open root, gaps, or on thin material with no
burnthrough.
Reduced spatter and fumes — Current is controlled to achieve
optimal metal transfer.
Reduced welding costs — Ability to use 100% CO
2
shielding gas
with larger diameter wires.
Various shielding gases — STT may be used with various gas blends
of Argon including Helium.
Good bead control and faster travel speeds — Can replace TIG
(GTAW) in many applications without sacrificing appearance.
Background and Tailout Current accurately control fine and coarse
heat input for reduced distortion and burnthrough as well as proper
penetration.
Adjustable Hot Start controls the heat at the start of the weld.
Manufactured under a quality system certified to ISO 9001
requirements and ISO 14001 environmental standards.
Three-year Lincoln warranty on parts and labor.
