PRODUCT PROGRAMME
FLEX XMS 330S/400S/500S
330S/400S/500S are welding machines designed for
electrode welding and MIG/MAG welding.
FLEX XMS has no pulse-programms in the programm
memory. FLEX XMI has both pulse and no-pulse
programms in the programm memory. FLEX XMI AUTO
has both pulse and no-pulse programms in the programm
memory, which has been adjusted to the car business.
Synergic
FLEX XMI machines can be used in the synergic welding
mode. Synergic MIG/MAG welding means that the weld-
ing process is controlled by one key parameter - the
welding current. All other parameters which influence the
welding arc are adjusted automatically by the machine as
the synergic current is changed.
Wire feed unit
A separate wire feed unit is used for MIG/MAG welding,
and there is a choice between an open wire feed unit,
and a closed one where the wire reel is in an enclosed
cabinet. Moreover, it is possible to use a double wire feed
unit (option). Interconnecting cables can be supplied in
different lengths to meet customers needs.
Welding torches, hoses and cables
MIGATRONIC'S standard product range can provide
electrode holders, MIG/MAG torches and hoses, return
current cables and extension leads etc..
Torch cooling
A water module can be delivered to the power source
which enables both watercooled and gascooled welding
torches to be used.
Data collection (option)
MIGATRONIC can supply the InfoWeld PC program for
data collection. InfoWeld is supplied complete with plug,
wire harness etc. for connecting the welding machine to a
PC.
Automation/mechanisation (option)
A Robot Interface module can be supplied for fitting to the
machine and making it possible to control the welding of
an automatic or robot installation. In addition, the
MIGATRONIC RoboWeld PC program can be fitted in
conjunction with the Robot Interface and used for the
control and data collection of each weld procedure.
Another kit called the DAC (Direct Automation Control)
can be fitted to enable the control of the welding process
from, for instance, a PC.
Remote control (option)
The machine can be fitted with a remote control.
Push pull (option)
MIGATRONIC push pull equipment and torch assembly
can be fitted to the machine on delivery or as a retro-fit.
Intermediary station (option)
An intermediary wire feed unit to increase the operating
radius of the machine when using the MIG/MAG process
can be fitted between the wire feed unit and the torch
hose assembly.
Locking the machine (option)
A key can be supplied to make it possible to lock the
machine and thereby prevent any alteration to the
welding parameters, or the possibility of un-authorised
welding.

CONNECTION AND OPERATION

Lift instructions
The following sections describe how the machine is
made ready for use and then connected to mains supply,
gas supply etc.. The numbers in parentheses refer to the
illustrations on page 95.
Mains connection
Before connecting the power source to the mains supply,
ensure that the power source is of the same voltage as
the mains voltage provided and that the fuse in the mains
supply is of the correct size. The mains cable (22) of the
power source must be connected to the correct three-
phase alternating current (AC) supply of 50 Hz or 60 Hz
and with earth connection. The sequence of the phases
is not of significance. The power source is switched on
with the mains switch (12).
Configuration
MIGATRONIC disclaims all responsibility for damaged
cables and other damages related to welding with under
sized welding torch and welding cables measured by
welding specifications e.g. in relation to permissible load.
Important!
In order to avoid destruction of plugs
and cables, good electric contact is
required when connecting
cables and intermediary cables to the
machine.
Connection of shielding gas
Shielding gas hoses are fitted to the back panel of the
power source (18) and are connected to a gas supply
with a flow rate variable from 8-20 litres/minute depen-
ding on the welding task. A gas cylinder can be mounted
on the bottle carrier on the back of the machine.
Connection of the wire feed unit Ι (standard)
The separate wire feed unit is connected to the power
source by an interconnecting cable which carries cable
for welding current (15 and 1), control signals (16 and 2),
gas hose (6 and 17) and hoses for torch cooling liquid (3,
4, 28 and 29).
Connection of the wire feed unit ΙΙ (option)
Please see separate mounting instruction. Motor control
cable should be connected (16a).
Connection of torch for MIG/MAG welding
The welding hose assembly is pushed into the central
connector coupling (8) and the nut is tightened by hand. If
a watercooled torch is used, the cooling hose is
connected to the blue quick-release fitting (10) and the
return hose to the red quick-release fitting (11). When
using a push pull torch the control cable plug is
connected to the 8-pole multiplug (9) (option) and the
return lead to the negative pole (14).
