This PulseDrive program sets the machine up for pulsed arc welding with CrNi 23 12 (ER309) class wires, 1.2 mm, with M12 shielding gas. You get pulsed arc and double pulse, useful where the look of the weld face matters.
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 stainless and acid-resistant steels.

FAQ
Will this program work on my machine?
Yes, as long as your machine is in the selection list above. 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.
How does PulseDrive differ from ArcDrive?
ArcDrive means short and spray arc without pulse. PulseDrive gives pulsed arc and double pulse: less spatter and easier pool control. ArcDrive for this set-up: ArcDrive 1.2 mm, gas M12 (79.S1.068).
Does it suit wire from any manufacturer?
Yes, if the wire belongs to the CrNi 23 12 (ER309) class, which you can check on the spool label. If your wire is unusual, contact us before ordering.
