Description
The iWave features an extremely robust design and an exceptionally self-explanatory operating concept.
The iWave is a completely digitised TIG AC/DC power source that is used especially for aluminium applications. Alongside the different power categories from 170 to 500 A, the devices also vary in their mobility – from the portable device to the high-power stationary complete system.
The iWave 230i is connectible with other devices via Bluetooth, Wireless LAN and NFC such as welding helmets, remote controls and also mobile phones.
ACTIVE WAVE TECHNOLOGY
Active Wave makes TIG AC welding a much quieter business. The integrated digital signal processor always computes the waveform that will permit the highest possible arc stability with the lowest possible noise-emission levels in real time. Measurement of these noise levels clearly shows that with Active Wave, the dbA value is still below 80 dbA, even when the machine is delivering 210A of power.
TAC
With TAC, one spot is all it takes for tacking, because the pulsed arc sets the two weld pools in motion, making them jump together in next to no time, to make one single weld-pool. The TAC function is also very useful when welding light-gauge sheets without filler metal.
HF IGNITION
The touchless and gentle high-frequency ignition is the easiest option for igniting the arc.
TOUCHDOWN IGNITION
Touchdown ignition can be used in particular for sensitive application areas. This allows electromagnetic interference, which can occur during HF ignition, to be avoided.
AUTOMATIC CAP-SHAPING
This function enables automatic cap-shaping when welding aluminium, resulting in significant time savings. The user can set the size.
IMPROVED WELD PROPERTIES
- High open circuit voltage and ample power reserves improve HF ignition behaviour
- 2 kHz pulse welding as standard on all devices; the PulsPro function package can deliver a pulse frequency of up to 10 kHz
- Saving and editing of up to 999 jobs using the Job function package
