This synergic ArcDrive program is set up for HardFacing G6 FCW (Stellite G6) class wires, 1.6 mm diameter, with M13 shielding gas. It covers short arc and spray arc, in manual and synergic mode.
What it is for
A program is a set of synergic curves for one wire, one diameter and one gas: you set wire speed or material thickness and the machine selects voltage and arc shape. This is a surfacing program: you use it to apply a layer that protects a surface or restores its dimensions.

FAQ
Can I add this program to my TERRA NX or URANOS NX?
Yes, as long as your machine is in the selection list above. When ordering, give the model and serial number of the machine the program is for. Installation, by our service or as a 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 1.6 mm, gas M13 (79.P1.130).
Can I use this program with a different gas?
No: the curves are made for M13. M13 is argon with a small oxygen addition. For I1 choose a separate program: ArcDrive 1.6 mm, gas I1 (79.S1.128).
