Fronius MagicWave 5000 TIG AC/DC

Fronius MagicWave 4000 Job.jpg
  • 500 A output

  • For use on construction sites and in manufacturing

  • Welds low-alloy and high-alloy steels, aluminium and non-ferrous metals

The MagicWave 5000 is a fully digitally controlled TIG AC/DC power source with ActiveWave technology, and is characterised by the softest possible yet highly stable arc. It has an output of 500 A, is both light and robust and self-explanatory in operation. The power source can be used in many different fields: chemical, container, machine and plant construction, pipeline construction, automotive and tracked vehicle manufacturing, aerospace industry and shipbuilding, as well as by all types of installation, maintenance and repair companies.

At 500 A, the MagicWave 5000 is an extremely powerful and robust welding system. Ideal for use on construction sites, and equally suited to manufacturing. The power source welds aluminium and its alloys, low-alloy and high-alloy steels and non-ferrous metals.

Overview

 

  • Automatic gas post-flow time (welding current-dependent)
    The ideal post-flow time is calculated automatically so that electrode and weld pool do not oxidise

  • Automatic tungsten balling
    Brings enormous time savings - simply clamp the sharpened electrode, pre-select cap diameter, the arc automatically forms the correct cap size

  • Generator-compatible
    for mobile use, including construction sites

  • Non-contact ignition (HF)
    For perfect arc ignition with high-voltage pulse, even for very long hosepacks

  • Reversed polarity ignition
    Improves the ignition of the TIG direct current arc

  • Touchdown ignition
    For ignition with no high-voltage pulses in sensitive applications

 

Technology

 

·  Active Wave
The AC-arc is expected to be stable and soft. Active Wave can fulfill these demands perfectly. A DSP (digital signal processor) controls the AC current curve and therefore offers best process stability and 100% reproducibility, even with large melt pools. By the way, the AC-arc ist never loud - the sound level is below the values allowed by law all the time
