Arcforce; Antistick - EWM Tetrix 351 AW FW Operating Instructions Manual

MMA welding

5.10.4 Arcforce

During the welding process, arcforce prevents the electrode sticking in the weld pool with increases in
current. This makes it easier to weld large-drop melting electrode types at low current strengths with a
short arc in particular.

5.10.5 Antistick

The Antistick feature prevents the electrode from annealing.
Should the electrode stick despite the Arcforce feature, the machine
automatically switches to the minimum current within approx. one
second. This prevents the electrode from annealing. Check the welding
current setting and correct for the welding task in hand.
