| Software notes | The machine is controlled via an integrated LCD panel that displays three lines of simultaneous information: wire and gas type, current and material thickness, voltage, and wire feed speed. The system includes 37 pre-loaded synergic curves that optimize welding parameters based on the material, significantly streamlining the initial setup. It also features specific functions dedicated to aluminum welding, such as automatic Hot Start and Crater Filler for a perfect weld bead closure. | The system is based on a proprietary interface featuring a built-in 5-inch TFT screen. The firmware manages preset synergic programs (up to 27 lines) for various combinations of wire, gas, and thicknesses, facilitating the setup of welding parameters via a single knob control. It includes a memory function to save and recall up to 10 customized jobs. There is no wireless connectivity or external cloud interaction, nor does it support PC or smartphone software. All functionalities remain strictly manageable from the control panel of the welder. |
