ditional fuel pumps and governors for Cat 3306 engines. These fac- tory-remanufactured pumps and governors are priced at approxi- mately 30 percent of new, yet carry the same warranty as new units—six months, unlimited mileage. They come fully assem- bled and have had a 20-point com- puter test. Ready for installation, they cut downtime to a minimum.

Airco Introduces New

Pulsed Welding Systems — Literature Available

Airco Welding Products has an- nounced the introduction of the newest member of its family of

Pulse Arc™ welding systems for pulsed spray transfer welding. The

Pulse Arc 500 system, like the

Pulse Arc 350 model, is designed around the pulsed spray process.

The process allows for spatter-free welding and excellent arc control in applications ranging from high deposition out-of-position welding on thick plate to smooth, low-dis- tortion welding on thin gauge materials.

The Pulse Arc 500 system has the power to handle large diame- ter cored wires up to 3/32 inch and can pulse Metal-Cor® 6 wire for high deposition rates. The system also has exceptional smaller di- ameter performance characteris- tics. Like the Pulse Arc 350, the 500 model is a complete system consisting of a transistorized 500- ampere air-cooled or 550 ampere water-cooled gun. The fully inte- grated machine takes the nor- mally complex engineering re- quirements of pulsed spray welding and translates them into a few simple pushbutton functions—at a price comparable to a standard

MIG package.

The pushbuttons and toggle switches allow the operator to se- lect among pulse, spray and dip transfer processes. He then presses the appropriate switches for the required wire diameter and shield- ing gas, and he's ready to go. A single knob on the remote pendant simultaneously sets welding cur- rent, voltage, wire feed speed, and pulse frequency. The advanced solid-state circuitry automatically controls all parameters.

The system is pre-programmed for stainless and mild steels, but other wires, such as silicon bronze and aluminum can be used by re- ferring to the easy-to-read process selector charts. The Pulse Arc 500 system is well suited for plants where one machine is needed to perform several welding operations.
