About The
Submerged Arc Welding Platforms
Lincoln Electric Company
Lincoln Electric is the world’s leading Lincoln Electric’s advanced submerged arc systems couple the
industry’s most advanced power source with mobile, hard
manufacturer of welding equipment automation or robotic feeding equipment to achieve new levels
and consumables. Our focus is of welding performance and operational efficiency.
helping companies make their welding Whether your application is bridge decking, pressure vessels,
panel line, seamer, pipe mill integrator solutions or submerged
operations more effective, more arc robotic welding, the software-driven Power Wave® AC/DC
1000® SD and your choice of integrated feeding equipment can
efficient, and more profitable. help your operations improve weld quality, reduce welding and
operational costs and increase weld team productivity.
We are dedicated to two equally Advanced Control
important goals: • Our Waveform Control Technology® allows operators to set
all AC and DC arc and PLC-based fixture motion control
parameters from a single mountable or hand-held
Exceptional quality and extended-range pendant. It is no longer necessary to reverse
