DESCRIPTION

The MAXsa®19 MSA Controller—Modified Series Arc System—is a single-pass, one-sided process developed for plate joining, typically in gantry-mounted applications.

SUBMERGED ARC CONTROLLERS FOR FABRICATION INTEGRATORS AND ROBOTIC APPLICATIONS

The MAXsa 19 MSA (Modified Series Arc) controllers are specifically designed to relay wire feed commands to the MAXsa 29 when a customer-supplied user interface is used in place of the MAXsa 10 controller. Typically, this occurs in third party fabrication integrator solutions that include integration hardware like turning rolls, panel lines, seamers and pipe mills fixturing.

Modified Series Arc is a single pass, one-sided process developed for plate joining, typically in gantry-mounted applications. New digital solutions based on the use of the Power Wave AC/DC 1000 SD advanced submerged arc welding power source provide a number of advantages over conventional Modified Series Arc systems.

Modified Series Arc process with MAXsa 19 MSA Controller Compared to conventional MSA systems:

Greater Control
- Direct control of the series wire and ground current, resulting in added stability, improved and consistent back bead appearance and independent control of the heat input and deposition rate.
- Weld plates up to 3/4 in. thick vs. 5/8 in. thick with conventional systems.
- Presettable welding parameters, all set through the PLC
- Eight user procedure memories
- Fast, reliable digital system communication
- Run the third wire on CC or CV
- Three phase operation, compared to single phase for conventional systems.
- Weld production and quality monitoring through Lincoln Electric CheckPoint, Production Monitoring and WeldScore software.
Increased Productivity
IP23 Rated - Tested to withstand harsh environments.
- Travel Speeds increase up to 28%, depending on plate thickness.
- Weld faster on thinner plate with lower heat inputs and reduced distortion.
