ESAB Welding & Cutting Products will display the Aristo® Mig 4004i Pulse power source. It can be combined with the Aristo Feed 3004 or Aristo Feed 4804 wire feeder to form a complete GMAW package. The feeds are offered with a choice of machine interface—the user-friendly U6 or more advanced U82 control panel—to help boost productivity, enhance weld quality, and reduce operating costs through lower energy consumption, according to the manufacturer.

The Aristo Mig 4004i Pulse is a lightweight, multiprocess welding power source that can be used for GMAW, pulsed GMAW, manual metal arc welding, or GTAW. The pulse function makes the power source suitable for advanced, spatter-free welding in aluminum and stainless steel.

The new inverter-based power source is more than 25 percent more energy-efficient than conventional welding equipment, says the company. The electronically controlled unit also weighs 70 percent less than comparable units and has a footprint that is 80 percent smaller, making it portable and easy to use in confined spaces.
