4 MIG/MAG WELDING
Main menu → Process
MIG/MAG welding melts a continuously supplied filler wire, with the weld pool being
protected by shielding gas.
Pulsing is used to influence the transfer of the droplets from the arc so that it remains stable
and spatter-free, even with low weld data.
For wire diameters that can be used for MIG/MAG welding with SHORT-/SPRAYARC and
with PULSING, see the "WIRE AND GAS DIMENSIONS" appendix at the end of this manual.
When the MIG/MAG process is selected, you can choose between four methods by selecting
Method with the left-hand knob and then pressing ENTER. Choose between short-/sprayarc,
puls or superpulse and then press ENTER again.
