New 600-Amp Power Pack for High-Performance Welding

"The top end of Fronius' TPS/i family has now been rounded off with an absolute power pack - the TPS 600i," said a company spokesperson. "This new welding current source can provide a welding current of up to 600 amp at a welding voltage of 44 V and 60% duty cycle. The high welding power of the TPS 600i makes it ideal for mechanized and robot-assisted welding in heavy steel construction and mechanical engineering in particular, as well as for all applications that involve a single-wire process and require high deposition rate.

"The CU 1400i Pro cooling unit is tailored to the TPS 600i and can be used to dissipate the thermal loading that is typical of high-performance welding. The seal-free construction and the use of a brushless, and therefore wear-free, pump motor guarantee the system unprecedented availability and endurance.

"The cooling system functions, together with the appropriate water-cooled welding torch (MTW 700i) for manual or automated welding, so effectively that the torch reaches room temperature just a few moments after you stop welding, even if it has been used for a long welding session.

"The new welding system has two new wirefeeders that have been adapted to the system and are also driven by wear-free, brushless three-phase motors. The WF 30i can feed welding wire with a diameter of up to 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) at a speed of up to 1,180 inches/minute (30 m/min), which makes it suitable for automated welding. The WF 15i transports 3/32 inch (2.4 mm) wires with precision, meaning it is suitable for repair and overlay welding."
