DETAILS
The APEX® 30S M85 Hot Wire TIG Ready Pak® CE system is a fully integrated and synchronized digital platform for controlling welding, torch motion and wire delivery. The addition of hot wire with Active Arc Suppression increases deposition while maintaining superior weld quality. With weld data delivered between the controller and pendant instantly, the operator has immediate access to monitor, adjust and control each parameter throughout the process. Simple menus for operation and intuitive controls allow the user to easily operate the system and produce consistent welds for a wide range of applications.
