A Free copy of “Arc Welding Safety” booklet E205 is available from the Lincoln Electric Company, 22801 St. Clair Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44117-1199. BE SURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES ARE PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS.
  • Page 3: Electric Shock Can Kill

    ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. 3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are electrically “hot” when the welder is on. Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bare skin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands.
  • Page 4 WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or explosion. 6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If this is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.

  • Page 15: Product Description

    PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Power MIG 350MP is a complete semiautomatic multi-process DC arc welding machine offering CV and CC DC welding. It is rated for 350MP amps, 32 volts at a 60% duty cycle. The standard machine is equipped to weld CC-Stick, CC-GTAW, CV-FCAW, and synergic and non-synergic CV-GMAW / GMAW-P and Pulse-on-Pulse and Power Mode welding processes.
  • Page 16 2. VOLT / TRIM METER - This meter displays either the voltage or trim value depending on the status of the machine. Located below the display is the text "Volts" and "Trim." An LED light is illuminated to the left of one of these in order to indicate the units of the value displayed in the meter.
  • Page 17: Setting And Configuring

    SETTING AND CONFIGURING THE POWER MIG 350MP FOR WELDING • Check that the electrode polarity is correct for the process and turn the Power Switch to the "ON" position. After the "boot-up" period (approximately 20 seconds), the Power MIG 350MP will default to the last preset weld mode that was active when the machine was powered down.
  • Page 18: Multi-Process Panel Functions

    MULTI-PROCESS PANEL FUNCTIONS Weld Mode Setting the Weld Mode is selecting the proper program from the ones available in the machine’s memory for a particular welding application. The table on the right side of the front panel (See Figure B.2) gives information on the different programs available in this machine.
  • Page 19: Arc Control

    Arc Control (See Table B.2) There are no specific unit values offered because the setting of this feature largely depends upon operator preference. Arc Control has a different effect on the character of the arc depending upon the welding process applied. In SMAW (STICK mode), arc control adjusts the arc force.
  • Page 20: Wire Drive Roll

    In the case of special waveforms designed for pulsed weld- ing aluminum, Pulse on Pulse™, the effect is similar to what occurs with standard pulse. As the Arc Control is increased from +1 to +10 the frequency of the Pulse on Pulse array increases.
  • Page 21: Changing Drive And Idle Roll Sets

    PROCEDURE FOR CHANGING DRIVE AND IDLE ROLL SETS 1. Turn off the power source. 2. Release the pressure on the idle roll by swinging the adjustable pressure arm down toward the back of the machine. Lift the cast idle roll assembly and allow it to sit in an upright position.
  • Page 22: Feeding Wire Electrode

    OPERATION 1. Press end of gun against a solid object that is elec- trically isolated from the welder output and press the gun trigger for several seconds. 2. If the wire “birdnests”, jams or breaks at the drive roll, the idle roll pressure is too great.
  • Page 23: Pulse Welding

    B-11 SPECIAL WELDING PROCESSES AVAILABLE ON THE POWER MIG 350MP PULSE WELDING (GMAW-P) The pulsed-arc process is, by definition, a spray trans- fer process wherein spray transfer occurs in pulses at regularly spaced intervals. In the time between pulses, the welding current is reduced and no metal transfer occurs.
  • Page 24: Pulse-On-Pulse

    Arc Control can be used to vary the ripple spacing in the weld bead. BENEFITS OF PULSE ON PULSE FROM LINCOLN ELECTRIC • Excellent appearance of the weld bead • Improved cleaning action • Reduced porosity Table B.3 shows WFS and Trim settings for common...
  • Page 25: Power Mode

    B-13 POWER MODE™ The Power Mode™ process was developed by Lincoln to maintain a stable and smooth arc at low procedure settings which are needed to weld thin metal without pop-outs or burning-through. For Aluminum welding, it provides excellent control and the ability to maintain constant arc length.

    GENERAL MAINTENANCE In extremely dusty locations, dirt may clog the air pas- sages causing the welder to run hot. Blow dirt out of the welder with low-pressure air at regular intervals to eliminate excessive dirt and dust build-up on internal parts.
  • Page 33: Liner Removal And Replacement

    CAUTION Excessive pressure at the start may cause the dirt to form a plug. Flex the cable over its entire length and again blow out the cable. Repeat this procedure until no further dirt comes out. If this has been done and feed prob- lems are experienced, try liner replacement, and refer to trouble shooting section on rough wire feeding.

  • Page 42: Thermal Protection

    THEORY OF OPERATION THERMAL PROTECTION Two normally closed (NC) thermostats protect the machine from excessive operating temperatures. These thermostats are wired in series and are con- nected to the Weld Control Board. One of the ther- mostats is located on the Chopper Assembly Board, and one is on the secondary of the Main Transformer.
  • Page 43: Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (Igbt) Operation

    THEORY OF OPERATION SOURCE DRAIN A. PASSIVE INSULATED GATE BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR (IGBT) OPERATION An IGBT is a type of transistor. IGBTs are semiconduc- tors well suited for high frequency switching and high current applications. Drawing A shows an IGBT in a passive mode. There is no gate signal, zero volts relative to the source, and therefore, no current flow.
  • Page 44: Pulse Width Modulation

    E-10 THEORY OF OPERATION FIGURE E.9 – TYPICAL IGBT OUTPUTS PULSE WIDTH MODULATION The term PULSE WIDTH MODULATION is used to describe how much time is devoted to conduction in the positive and negative portions of the cycle. Changing the pulse width is known as MODULATION. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is the varying of the pulse width over the allowed range of a cycle to affect the output of the machine.
  • Page 45: Chopper Technology Fundamentals

    E-11 THEORY OF OPERATION CHOPPER TECHNOLOGY FUNDAMENTALS The new era of welding machines such as the Power MIG 350MP employ a technology whereby a DC source is turned on and off (chopped up) at high speed, then smoothed through an inductor to control an arc. Hence the name “Chopper.”...
