This synergic ArcDrive program is set up for Al99,5 (ER1050) class wires, 1.6 mm diameter, with I1 shielding gas. It covers short arc and spray arc, in manual and synergic mode.
What it is for
The program holds synergic curves for this one combination of wire, diameter and gas. You change wire feed speed or plate thickness and the machine sets voltage and arc shape itself. The program is meant for aluminium and its alloys. Al99.5 is a wire for commercially pure aluminium.

FAQ
Will this program work on my machine?
Yes, as long as your machine is in the selection list above. ArcDrive has the widest machine list: it also covers TERRA NX 320/400 SMC SteelDrive and TERRA NX 400/500 MSE. Give the machine model and serial number with your order so we can confirm compatibility with its software. Whether our service installs it or it comes as a manufacturer update is settled after the order.
Should I choose RapiDeep instead of ArcDrive?
If productivity matters to you, yes. RapiDeep is a T.MAP process: the price list credits it with faster welding, better penetration and less heat. The guide does not list it for TERRA NX 400/500 MSE or URANOS NX 2700. The same set-up in RapiDeep: RapiDeep 1.6 mm, gas I1 (79.RD.117).
Does it suit wire from any manufacturer?
Yes, if the wire belongs to the Al99,5 (ER1050) class, which you can check on the spool label. If your wire is unusual, contact us before ordering.
