Wire feeder offers unmatched combination

Published:  13 October, 2021

ESAB says its Robust Feed U82 wire feeder includes a full suite of advanced process control functions that help users increase competitiveness through consistent weld quality and appearance, address workforce skill issues, improve productivity and reduce operating costs. The feeder accepts 200- and 300-mm wire spools and is designed to work with ESAB’s Aristo 500ix and Aristo Mig 4004i Pulse power sources for MIG/MAG, pulsed MIG, flux cored, TIG welding and carbon arc gouging.

The company says the Robust Feed U82 combines the extreme durability of a portable, enclosed feeder and the precision and control of a shop-style feeder and its PreciDrive wire drive system delivers better arc starts and stops without backlash or play in the gears. Large diameter (38 mm) drive rolls offer more gripping area and provide more pushing force without deforming soft cored and aluminium wires.
