3 SUBMERGED ARC WELDING
MAIN MENU » PROCESS
During Submerged Arc Welding (SAW), an arc melts a continuously supplied wire. The weld
pool is protected by flux.
Aristo® 1000: When the SAW process is selected, choose METHOD with the positioning
knob and press ENTER. Choose AC or DC.

Aristo® 1000: When the SAW process is selected, you can choose between three control
methods by marking REGULATION TYPE using the positioning knob and pressing ENTER.
Choose between constant welding current CA or constant wire feed CW or constant current
CC.
LAF/TAF: When the SAW process is selected, you can choose between three control
methods by marking REGULATION TYPE using the positioning knob and pressing ENTER.
Choose between constant welding current CA or constant wire feed CW.
See explanations in "CA, constant amperage", "CW, constant wire feed" and "CC, constant
current".
If ICE wire feed is selected, see "ICE wire feed", page53, only regulation type CW can be
selected.
