I don't know that particular machine - But are you running the right polarity?
Something looks very wrong.

I've also tested the 6:1 theory against the Miller calculator. FCAW 0.9 mm wire, 4.8 mm mild steel (3/16"), 190 - 220 amps and 15 - 16 volts. The ratio doesn't work for me. Am I missing something? (I have no doubt that Todd Bridigum can weld very well.) Just a little, maybe meaningless input -...

You guessed right
It is for water purification in a fish farm.

Not actually today, but a project i did a while ago. Stainless 316L frames for UV-lights. The units have 4 or 6 pcs. 130W UV tubes! They make a hell of alot ozon when test running them, and they will burn your eyes (like welding) in relative few seconds. Really nasty stuff. :evil: https://dl.dropbox...

Copper and brass is quite forward to weld - Do you have some specific problems doing that?

This is a welded windmill-tip, i've produced alot of those.

What I meant by not getting full amps was with the machine set to 200 I would only actually get 180 to 130 amps at full pedal. I will asIk about the breakers. syncrowaves are great machines I have a 300 in.net shop at home but mine is water cooled. The fan on his machine runs,almost constantly. Cou...

Same for me. Can you send an email to the address shown on the error page and let them know please.

Will do in a second

Migatronic appears to be manufactured in India, explaining the rather impressive, though imperfect translation to British English. Nowhere do I find a specification for MIG/MAG voltage ranges, only ultimate weld current. This appears to be an oversight in the literature. It's actually a Danish bran...

For setting a MIG machine, it is the open circuit voltage you're looking for, and on a digital machine is the number displayed. Hi Steve, Please help me to understand this. The open circuit voltage is what you read whem pulling the trigger, and reads a multimeter? My Sigma has a voltage reading, bu...

I'm running a Migatronic Automig 183 MPS, and a Migatronic Sigma 300 Pulse at home - At job i run a Migatronic KDO 325 and some ESAB LAN 315/ESAB LAX 380 The machines are probably not known in the US. A little edit; The Sigma 300 are traded in for a new Sigma² 400 watercooled machine - Can't wait. ...

You will under normal circumstances get better penetration when welding uphill. How much more depends on gun-angle, amps/voltage settings, travelspeed, etc, etc.

That hissing description sounds like "spray transfer", which surprises me with 75/25. I think it is possible to acheive spray-transfer with that gas-mix. On my job, we are running some old Esab LAN 315 - They're like OP's machine, one coarse-powerdial ranging 1-4, and a fine-power dial 1-...

Thanks a lot! I guess I will have to inquire with Lincoln on which gas is required. I was wanting to use Ultracore FCP309L all position for disimilar metals. Take a look at the TDS; http://www.lincolnelectric.com/assets/en_US/Products/Consumable_StainlessNickelandHighAlloy-UltraCore-UltraCoreFCP309...

We use 75/ 25 gas to mig mild steel the problem is it wont go to full spray. It was suggested that a 90/10 mix will allow both short arc for thinner stuff and full spray for the thicker jobs. Thanks Mike H What's the voltage and wirespeed? On job, i easily run spray with a 82/18 gas Ar/Co2 (standar...

Hi,
New on the forum - I'm from Denmark, been working as a welder in ~10 years now.

Finally got orderet my tig-finger. Why didn't i do that for long time ago? It is really good, I use it everyday.
