WAVEFORM CONTROL TECHNOLOGY ®<br />

The waveform may be varied to:<br />

• Control Penetration<br />

• Control Bead Shape<br />

• Minimize arc interactions which can cause arc blow<br />

Positive Current Level = Penetration<br />

100% DC+<br />

(traditional)<br />

Cycle Balance = Penetration/Deposition<br />

AC Frequency<br />

Negative Current Level = Deposition<br />

SOFTWARE DRIVEN CONTROL OVER PENETRATION, DEPOSITION RATE AND TRAVEL SPEED<br />

Speed<br />

• Maximum Penetration • Less Penetration<br />

• Greater Travel Speed<br />

Waveform Control Technology ® capability provides<br />

precise control over:<br />

• AC Frequency<br />

• Balance (Percentage of time in the positive polarity<br />

portion of one cycle)<br />

• Offset (Positive/Negative Amplitude)<br />
