This synergic ArcDrive program is set up for CrNi 19 9 (ER308) class wires, 1.0 mm diameter, with M12 shielding gas. You work in synergic or manual mode, with short arc or spray arc.
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. Use it on stainless steels, where a clean weld and little spatter count.

FAQ
Which machine can run this program?
Any machine on the list above. You buy the program for one specific machine: give its model and serial number with your order. Installation (service visit or manufacturer update) is agreed after the order.
How does ArcDrive differ from PulseDrive?
ArcDrive welds with short and spray arc, without pulse. PulseDrive adds pulsed arc and double pulse, which helps on thin sheet and in position. The PulseDrive version of this program: PulseDrive 1.0 mm, gas M12 (79.P1.051).
Does it suit wire from any manufacturer?
Yes, if the wire belongs to the CrNi 19 9 (ER308) class, which you can check on the spool label. If you weld with Thermanit JE 308L Si, choose the program tuned to it: ArcDrive Thermanit JE 308L Si 1.0 mm, gas M12 (79.S1.05199).
