| Software notes | — | The machine's control relies on a proprietary hardware interface integrated into the front panel, featuring large LED displays that clearly show welding parameters in real-time. It does not require any external software to function, nor a mobile application, operating entirely offline. The digital panel allows the operator to quickly access 24 preset synergic programs, optimized for welding carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and gasless flux-cored wire. The internal microprocessor automatically manages wire speed and arc voltage based on the selected thickness and material, reducing setup times. Fine adjustments for inductance and burn-back can be intuitively accessed directly from the on-board interface. |
