The intelligent TIG welding system for industrial applications and outstanding quality whatever the materials involved.
Challenge:
The renowned Austrian contract manufacturer joins metal components for national and international clients. Component accessibility, material and design require that components be welded with both MIG/MAG and TIG. The space requirement for two different welding systems and the constant change between the two turned out to be an inefficient approach for Ferrum.at. A powerful and reliable all in one solution was therefore needed for the future.
Solution:
iWave AC/DC 400i
Process
Application:
WIG (Cycle TIG)
MIG/MAG (PMC)
One hosepack for any application.

Efficiency savings of more than 90% (measured in clicks) when setting up an account for someone who needs access to 20 systems. * Compared to creating the account directly on the welding system display
Central User Management
A clear reduction in complexity: only one tool required to manage different systems.
Industry 4.0 performance levels: iWave supports all the main communication standards. Wirelessly connect peripheral devices to the welding system in next to no time – that means anything from high-tech welding helmets (such as the Vizor Connect) to remote controls. Use WLAN to integrate welding systems directly into your network for easy firmware updates.
TIG welding made easy: all thanks to the CycleTIG function. Based on the principle of stitch welding, this function offers additional setting options and new parameter combinations for improved welding results.
Noticeably better: iWave takes TIG welding ignition behavior to a whole new level. We have optimized the HF ignition process and adapted the ignition behavior to suit the various electrode diameters.
Are you looking for a faster ignition process that is fully reproducible – regardless of the material characteristics involved? If so, iWave offers an off-the-shelf solution in the form of RPI auto. The new ignition mode is the next logical step in the development of the proven “RPI on” function. The welding system now makes changes to the ignition settings automatically – including when it is necessary to counter deteriorations in ignition and without any need for manual intervention.

Contact ignition – by touching the workpiece with the electrode.
Touchless ignition via high-voltage pulses when the torch trigger is actuated.
A special form of high-frequency ignition – ignition only takes place once the workpiece and electrode make contact. This enables ignition at a precise point without any risk of tungsten inclusions.
Stops the welding process without a torch trigger – by briefly lifting and lowering the electrode.
Definable arc break voltage – for stopping the welding process. The arc is switched off as soon as the set voltage is reached.
The TACKING function causes the weld pool to oscillate briefly at the beginning. As a result, you can tack your components together in a single step because the material of both edges merges beautifully – without burning the edges. Very little to no temper coloration occurs at the tacking points. What’s more, no filler metal is required – even with small air gaps of up to 1.5 mm.
This function* allows a cap to be formed very quickly based on the set electrode diameter. In this way, you can save yourself a ton of work time.
Example: Electrodes with Ø 1.6 mm
| Time required (without function): |
91 seconds |
| Time required (with function): |
2 seconds |
| Savings: |
~ 1.5 minutes |
| 8 times per day |
~ 12 minutes |
| 5 days/week | ~ 1 hour |
| 40 weeks/year |
~ 40 hours |
Savings: One working week per year and per welder.

Ensures that the tungsten electrode and weld are protected by a gas shield, thereby preventing oxidation. The gas post-flow time is calculated on the basis of the set welding current and electrode diameter.
Smashing the challenge: our “Sync Mode” makes simultaneous two-sided TIG welding with alternating current easier than ever before. This is the ultimate welding challenge, which we have overcome by automatically harmonizing both arcs. As a result, two welders can work together in perfect synchronism.
