WX4 series

Overview

WX4 Series（200/300/500）

* In addition to this product (welding power source), a torch and gas regulator are required for welding.

Key functions

Various types of welding can be performed by switching the welding mode
Supports welding of various aluminum base materials by switching the pulse frequency
Safe and user-friendly design
50/60 Hz common
Output of various data to support quality control and frontline management

Issues

High-quality welding

Four welding modes are available for various applications. High-quality welding can be applied to aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel.

Operating costs

Panasonic's proprietary mix TIG welding has excellent arc convergence, enabling efficient welding. Costs can be reduced by switching the pulse control to perform high-speed welding.

Strengths and Features

The optimal welding mode can be selected according to the application

The WX4 series is a TIG welding machine that can output both AC and DC currents. In addition to switching between high and low currents, it is also possible to perform the original Mix TIG welding that alternately outputs AC and DC currents. Suitable for welding various shapes from thin to thick plates.

Capable of welding various aluminum base materials by switching the welding mode

Due to the excellent arc convergence, it is effective for fillet (lap) joint welding of thin aluminum plates. Furthermore, when welding not only aluminum but also mild steel and stainless steel, users can select an appropriate arc start according to the application, enabling high-quality welding.

Capable of welding various aluminum base materials by switching the pulse frequency

The pulse width and pulse frequency can be switched separately. Even with the same current value, the average current value and heat input vary significantly by changing the pulse width and frequency. Operation can be easily switched on the front panel.

Equipped with functions in consideration of on-site work

This product can be used anywhere in Japan (both 50 and 60 Hz supported . In addition, the rated input power voltage can also be switched with a single button. Furthermore, it is equipped with an anomaly detection function. Therefore, even if a problem occurs, it is easy to identify the cause and reduce downtime.

■ Safe and user-friendly design

The crater control can be switched by selecting On, Off, or Repeated.
With the function for setting the up-slope time and down-slope time
With the function for setting the pre-flow time and post-flow time
With a switch to turn the electric shock prevention function On or Off for DC manual welding (on the PCB)
With an insufficient water flow detection function (torch protection)
With terminals for connecting jigs (pulse detection, current detection, emergency stop)
With an anomaly detection function
