POWER WAVE® 455M/STT® ROBOTIC
K2263-1

SUPERIOR ARC PERFORMANCE. REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNICATION.

For welding thicker materials with robotics and hard automation, choose the Power Wave® 455M Robotic. For those applications where heat input control, minimal distortion, and reduced spatter are essential, opt for the Power Wave® 455M/STT® Robotic. Both models feature Waveform Control Technology® for superior arc performance on a variety of materials, including steel, stainless steel, aluminum and nickel alloys. Both deliver custom control of the arc for a given wire type, size and shielding gas configuration for consistent welds time after time.

The Power Wave® 455M Robotic and Power Wave® 455M/STT® Robotic are designed to be components in a modular, multi-process welding system capable of digital communication with other industrial machines to create a highly integrated and flexible welding cell.

FEATURES

• Choose from over 60 standard welding waveform programs that offer a broad range of electrode size, type and shielding gas combinations to give you optimal appearance, penetration, beadshape and travel speed for each application.
• Modular design enables robotic, hard automation and semiautomatic applications using a single machine platform.
• Optional communication modules provide networking capabilities via DeviceNet™ or Ethernet.
• Utilizes ArcLink® - the leading digital communication protocol for welding, making it the best choice for seamless, time critical integration to the power source and networked equipment.
• Software based controls can be upgraded as new features become available.
• Process and production monitoring with access to real time (500 Hz) feedback such as arc current, voltage and wire feed speed. Access to internal data acquisition (10KHz) and access to real time machine status such as fault/alarm conditions and arc time.
• A Power Wave® inverter operates at a high efficiency (88-90%) with a 95% minimum power factor (at rated output) and is capable of operating from a universal input voltage (208 to 575 volts). 
• Power Wave® 455M/STT® Robotic features Lincoln’s Surface Tension Transfer® Process, which controls heat input for great penetration control and reduced spatter and fumes.
