TECHNOLOGY

Efficient and user-friendly TIG pipe welding THE new Fronius Artis is designed to meet high TIG welding standards. The lightweight and compact device also aims to offer a stable arc. In the DC power categories 170A to 210A, the Artis offers a range of functions that a user would otherwise only expect from larger professional TIG devices.

The user can also set a freely selectable pause time and continue the work as stitch welding. The TAC function is ideal for precise tacking of components. This results in time savings of up to 50 per cent and ensures that hardly any annealing colours are produced, which is a clear advantage for the seam quality when welding over the tacking points. In addition, the fully digitised Artis can be updated at any time, making it sustainable and even more flexible. System information can also be easily read out via the USB interface, which is positioned inside the housing so that it is protected.

Robust, versatile and weighing just 10kg, the Artis is a reliable companion, whether the user needs visible seams on stainless steel handrails and high-quality pipe connections, or precise applications in container and industrial plant construction. The new Fronius TIG systems focus on user friendliness, reliability and energy efficiency. The Artis also offers all the popular functions of its predecessor – the Fronius TransTig.

display makes operation simple. Eleven of the most important welding parameters can be selected directly on the display and things can get started immediately. The adjustable pulsed arc ensures an excellent seam appearance and its strength is usage in tight spaces and with very thin materials. For recurring welded joints, the spot welding mode is useful and allows welding spots to be spaced evenly.
