4 GAS METAL ARC WELDING
Main menu  Process
During Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), an arc melts a continuously supplied wire.
The weld pool is protected by shielding gas.
When the Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process is selected, you can choose
between two 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 explanation in chapter 6.1 and 6.2.
