3.3 Additional guidance to functions and features

This section summarizes the AX MIG Welder functions and features and how to use them.

Many of the features are optional and device model specific. When the feature is device model specific, the emphasized

equipment information in the beginning of the section tells its availability.

1-MIG or "Auto" is a MIG/MAG welding process where the welding voltage is defined automatically when you adjust the

wire feed speed. The voltage is calculated based on the welding program in use. The process is suitable for all materials,

shielding gases and welding positions. 1-MIG supports WiseSteel, WisePenetration+ and WiseFusion features, as well as

various optimized welding programs.

>> To take 1-MIG into use, go to the

cess.

If there aren't any 1-MIG memory channels available, create a new one for 1-MIG process by selecting an available 1-MIG

welding program for the channel.

The '0' memory channel is always reserved for the manual MIG process.

The WiseFusion welding feature enables adaptive arc length control, which keeps the arc optimally short and focused.

WiseFusion increases the welding speed and penetration and decreases heat input. WiseFusion can be used throughout

the power range (short arc, globular arc and spray arc). WiseFusion is compatible with 1-MIG, MAX Position and pulsed

MIG welding processes.

>> To take WiseFusion into use, go to AX Manager's Welding parameters view and apply the WiseFusion feature.

>> Adjust the welding power/wire feed speed in the Home view.

>> Fine-tune the heat output while welding in the Home view.

In standard MIG/MAG welding, changes in stick-out length cause welding current to fluctuate. WisePenetration+ feature

maintains constant welding current by controlling the wire feed speed according to the stick-out length. This ensures

stable and effective penetration and prevents burn through. WisePenetration+ also adjusts the voltage adaptively,

which keeps the arc focused and optimally short. WisePenetration+ enables welding with Reduced Gap Technology

(RGT) and is compatible with 1-MIG welding process.

>> To take WisePenetration+ into use, go to AX Manager's Welding parameters view and apply the WisePen-

etration+ feature.

>> Adjust the welding current while welding in the Home view.
