Technology to Make Life Easier for Job Site Welders



Lincoln Electric's CrossLinc Technology-enabled welding equipment is designed to provide advantages for the construction, shipbuilding, barge, heavy fabrication and other markets. "The Flextec 350X welder and LN-25X wire feeder use a proprietary communications protocol to transfer operator voltage adjustments at the feeder to the power source hundreds of feet away using a copper weld cable," said a company spokesperson. "No additional control cable is required. The result is greater safety, quality and productivity for job site and fabrication shop environments."

Flextec 350X

Lincoln Electric's Flextec 350X multi-process welding power source is designed to provide enhanced arc performance for all DC wire, stick and TIG processes and gouging up to 3/16" (4.8 mm). Engineered for outdoor use and harsh environments, this IP23-rated welder features fully protected components.

With an output range of 5 to 425 amps, the Flextec 350X is rated at 300 amps, 32 volts at 100% duty cycle or 350 amps, 34 volts at 60% duty cycle. Lightweight and portable, the compact new model weighs 77 lbs. (34.9 kilograms).

The Flextec 350X is offered as a Construction model for connection with across-the-arc or CrossLinc-enabled feeders or as a Standard model compatible with a greater selection of feeders, including across-the-arc, analog, digital or CrossLinc Technology-enabled wire feeders. Multi-operator four-pack and six-pack rack systems are available for each model.

LN-25X

"The LN-25X feeder is designed to be simple, reliable and easy to service when necessary," said the spokesperson. "LN-25 PRO feeders feature a rugged Maxtrac drive system, dual range wire feed speed, encapsulated and protected electronics and a tough, flame-resistant case."

This feeder is rated 450 amps at 60% duty cycle, with a wire feed speed range of 50-700 IPM. Wire diameters range from .023 - 1/16" (0.6 - 1.6 mm) for GMAW wires and .030 - 5/64" (0.8-2.0 mm) for cored wires. The LN-25X can handle 12" (305 mm) or 8" inch (203 mm) spools and weighs less than 37 lbs. (16 kilograms).

The X in the LN-25X name indicates the feeder is designed for Lincoln Electric's CrossLinc Technology-enabled operation as well as across-the-arc operation.
