While the power source remains at the heart of the machine, other parts of the welding machine are not permanently installed and can be freely configured. This means users can pick and choose which wire feeder or what cooling they prefer to use for their daily tasks. Customers can also retrofit their machines as needed, gradually completing their set-up with new modules, such as a new cool50-2 U40 cooling unit for water-cooled welding torches, or with one of three different trolleys, which have all been designed for particular areas of application, such as construction sites or workshops. The range of user-oriented accessories – including a toolbox and cover lens for the control – also gives users the freedom to adapt their modular XQ series machines to any working area.
The modular versions of the XQ welding machines are also compatible with the ewm Xnet welding management software. This software solution supports, documents and analyses the entire production process, from work preparation to final costing, all completely paperless. This makes quality assurance even easier and allows users to extensively evaluate any welding parameters used for a job after the fact.
