Description
Post current setting affects the wire
length at the weld end, for example to
prevent the wire from stopping too close
to the weld pool. This also enables the
optimum wire length for the start of the
next weld.
The Creep start function defines the wire
feed speed before the welding arc
ignites, that is, before the filler wire
comes in contact with the workpiece.
When the arc ignites, the wire feed speed
is automatically switched to the normal
user-set speed. The Creep start function
is always on.
Welding function that starts the shielding
gas flow before the arc ignites. This
ensures that the metal does not come
into contact with air at the start of the
weld. Time value is preset by the user.
Used for all metals, but especially for
stainless steel, aluminum and titanium.
Welding function that continues the
shielding gas flow after the arc has extin-
guished. This ensures that the hot weld
does not come into contact with air after
the arc is extinguished, protecting the
weld and also the electrode. Used for all
metals. Especially stainless steel and
titanium require longer post gas times.
Description
Welding function that uses higher or
lower wire feed speed and welding cur-
rent at the start of the weld. After the Hot
start period the current changes to nor-
mal welding current level. This facilitates
the start of the weld especially with alu-
minum materials. The Hot start level and
time (only in 2T trigger mode) are preset
by the user.
