Each weld program is designed for specific wire and gas combinations—for optimized performance. Low spatter levels at high travel speeds is a requirement in automated welding. The Versa-Pulse process precisely controls the welding arc, significantly reducing spatter size and quantity. Total spatter can significantly reduced over traditional processes. The adaptive arcs of Versa-Pulse™ and Accu-Pulse® instantly make adjustments to handle weld tacks, large gaps and inconsistent parts. The result is higher quality welds and fewer weld defects. Better weld quality NEW! Versa-Pulse™ • Fast,...
