Tandem Weld - The process for more productivity

Two in-line wire are fed simultaneously and melted in two arcs. Due to the consequent separation of the two electrical cicuits the arc can be controlled in detail. Enormous efficiency, low heat input, excellent weld seam quality and the very high deposition rate are the great advantages of the Tandem Weld process.
