Lorch speedwave xt.More control in the weld pool. Fewer pores. Higher quality.
The new wave in welding performance.
Precise frequency modulation for uncompromising weld quality.
With SpeedWave XT, Lorch is expanding its successful Speed process technology to include an innovative, high-end welding (process) for demanding aluminium and stainless steel applications. The modified pulsed arc combines cyclically varying energy with an adjustable wave frequency – whilst maintaining a constant wire feed speed.
The result: maximum control over the weld pool and significantly improved welding results under difficult conditions.
The benefits of SpeedWave XT.
- Fewer pores thanks to improved outgassing of the melt.
- Reduced susceptibility to cracking due to grain refinement in the solidifying material.
- Fine, high-quality weld appearance.
- High process stability even with difficult materials.
- Constant wire feeder to protect the equipment and accessories.
- Ideal for demanding quality requirements and sensitive applications.
More control in the weld pool.
Fewer pores
The aggitaed weld pool promotes improved degassing of the material. Gas inclusions can escape more effectively – resulting in weld seams with fewer pores and higher quality.
Reduced susceptibility to cracking
Targeted frequency modulation results in grain refinement within the solidifying material. This improves the metallurgical properties of the weld seam and reduces the risk of cracking.
High-quality weld appearance
SpeedWave XT produces an exceptionally fine seam pattern – a key advantage for applications where aluminium and stainless steel are visible.
Innovative process dynamics.
SpeedWave XT is based on a modified pulsed arc with cyclically varying energy. The adjustable wave frequency operates in the range of 4 to 40 Hz, thereby significantly expanding the possibilities of previous pulsed processes.
The constant wire feeder ensures:
- smooth and stable process flow
- reduced mechanical stress
- high reproducibility of results
Perfect for demanding materials.
Aluminium
Ideal for medium- and thick-walled aluminium applications with high standards for weld quality and appearance.
Chromium-nickel steels
Optimised process control for demanding stainless steel applications, with reduced susceptibility to porosity and cracking.
