Thanks Per,
In the video, it appears your TIG is pulsing VERY, VERY fast. Did you use the pulse feature to control heat?

yes Kerry, then I can set the peak pretty high and keep the heat controlled with the filler rod, more filler = cooler weld but still perfect penetration
I rarely use a pedal, I use all options at my tig machines insted like the puls. I have worked pretty hard to get rid of the pedal use, not often I just sit perfect with a bench ,more common is welding in odd positions under or inside a project and then I really like to be abel to weld without any " package" my torch is long enough to reach everywhere in my shop, no need to bring the machine. hope I answered your question? |
