Wise meets the welder
FOUR ARC TOOLS EVERY WELDER SHOULD HAVE
The shift in development of welding power sources toward more digital
weld distortion due to the 10–25% low-
devices opens new approaches to welding process development. Nowa-
er heat input used compared to standard
days, the control of welding machines is based more and more on software components. A digital system improves the reaction times of welding
