MAX Position process

Available as an option in Master M 355.

MAX Position is a MIG/MAG welding process optimized for vertical fillet welds (position: PF). MAX Position automatically switches between two separate power levels. The two power levels can use the same welding process or two different welding processes.

>>  To take MAX Position into use, press the control panel's welding process button and select MAX Position. The MAX Position frequency becomes available for adjustment in the Welding parameters view. The ratio of the two power levels is preset.

>>  To adjust the average wire feed speed, in the control panel's Main view, turn the left control knob. The adjustment's effect on the base material thickness is also shown.

>>  To fine-tune the welding voltage, in the control panel's Main view, turn the right control knob.

MAX Position supports these filler wire and shielding gas combinations:

Fe solid & Ar + 18% CO2 (1.0 mm, 1.2 mm)
Fe solid & Ar + 8% CO2 (1.0 mm, 1.2 mm)
Fe MC & Ar + 18% CO2 (1.2 mm)
Ss solid & Ar + 2% CO2 (1.0 mm, 1.2 mm)
AlMg & Ar (1.0 mm, 1.2 mm)

MAX Position supports these base material thicknesses:

3...12 mm.

MAX Position utilizes also other welding processes (depending on material):

Fe & Fe MC: 1-MIG (with low power) and Pulse MIG (with high power)
Ss & Al: Pulse MIG (throughout the power range).
