EWM Tetrix XQ 230 welding machine, the one welding machine for all your needs. Tetrix XQ 230 for TIG welding shows its strength in a wide range of applications with a variety of materials. If welding automatically or manually this welder makes the job just that bit easier including assembly, repair or maintenance work.  
 
A long duty cycle with welding currents up to 230 A from single-phase 230-V  mains enables uninterrupted welding, even with weak power grids, long mains leads or when using a generator. Its perfectly tuned weight, size and power will make the TETRIX XQ your new favourite machine in any work environment.
 
Key Functions:
TIG AC FUNCTIONS
Standard AC: Aluminium welding in just one click thanks to perfect presets. Easy adjustment of AC parameters for special applications.
Pulsed TIG AC welding: Reduced distortion and discolouration through energy per unit length and heat input.
AC balling: Ensures optimum tungsten balling and therefore a stable, easy-to-handle arc.
AC frequency: Adjustment of the arc force – ideal for thin metal sheets and fillet welds.
AC balance: Vary between more positive and more negative current proportions.
AC amplitude balance: Enables adjustment of negative and positive welding current levels.
AC waveforms: Optimum stability and reduced noise level thanks to adjustable AC waveforms (sine, trapezoidal, square and customised).
 
TIG DC FUNCTIONS
Standard DC: Perfect TIG welding with ignition parameters adapted depending on power output.
Pulsed TIG DC welding: Decreases the heat input which reduces distortion and discolouration.
Spotmatic: Triggers constant tack points only upon contact with the torch tip.
SpotArc: Minimised time required for tacking and spot welding due to individual triggering of the tack points with the torch trigger.
ActivArc: Dynamic TIG arc with automatic arc stabilisation. The high arc force ensures a secure sidewall fusion and a targeted and uniform heat input. Particularly beneficial when welding fillet welds and root passes.
HF start: Prevents tungsten inclusions through non-contact arc ignition.
LiftArc: Simple ignition of the arc without HF by pulling up the welding torch electrode after touching the workpiece.
TIG Antistick: Prevents damage to the tungsten electrode in case of inadvertent contact with the workpiece.
 
MMA FUNCTIONS
Standard MMA: Unlimited potential applications for electrode welding.
Hot start: Prevents a lack of fusion at the start of the weld seam by briefly increasing the current when welding begins.
Arcforce: Adjustable arc dynamics from soft to hard.
Antistick: Prevents the electrode from annealing by briefly switching off the welding current.
Cel: 100% reliable vertical-down welding with all cellulose electrodes.
MMA pulse welding: Vertical-up welding without using the “Christmas tree” technique, but still with reliable root fusion.
