Automatic Tig Filler Rod Feeder

However you need to sync the filler timing with the hi pulse time and your travel speed to get optimal results.

Automatic tig filler rod feeder.

Tig finger feeder is 9 25 inches long and fits comfortably into your hand. The powerweld tig finger feeder tig pen smoothly feeds tig filler wire using just your index finger. The tig cold wire feed process is suited for automated and manual tig welding applications. Suitable for tig wire diameters 0 8mm 030 to 3 2mm 1 8.

I had this one aluminum job that i could have a part loaded welded and unloaded in 45 seconds. Tig rod feeder bin wall challenge. Last edited by goodhand. Hold the feeder like a pen or pencil.

Feeds 030 to 1 8 diameter tig welding wire smooth feed wheel automatically adjusts to tig wire diameter. It is held in the hand like an ordinary pencil. Insert the tig filler wire from the rear of the unit not from the front. It s been a while since i ve done the challenge so i thought i d see what i could rustle up in way of an automatic rod feeder.

The new profax px20tig cold wire machine will increase tig welding productivity by eliminating time consuming arc stops and starts common with cut length rod. Cold wire feeders use standard spooled wire which eliminates stub loss associated with 36 914mm cut length welding rod for longer arctime and 30 increase in productivity. I have built several wire feeders for tig filler delivery for aluminum and other materials. With the feeder comfortable in your hand advance the wire by rolling the rubber wheel with the tip of your index finger.

Total control of the filler material is now possible. Save 20 40 on filler metal costs because spooled wire is less expensive than individual cut length rod and the unused rod end waste is eliminated. There are serious benifits to this kind of system. Feeder wheel automatically adjusts to tig welding wire diameters from 030 to 1 8 inch.

The tig pen is the first manual welding wire feeder that truly makes sense. I ve been learning to tig weld and one of the tricky parts to master is feeding the filler rod with my non dominant hand. Adding cut length filler rod to the weld puddle is labor intensive expensive and wasteful.
