Simple. Innovative. Technologically Advanced. These are all words that describe the Power Wave welding systems. These next generation systems utilize Waveform Control Technology™ for the finest welding arc in the industry.
POWER SOURCE
The Power Wave 455 is a high efficiency inverter designed for unprecedented ease of use and performance.
Sophisticated software in the unit controls the welding waveform for reduced arc spatter, fumes, and an exceptionally smooth arc.
WIRE FEEDER
The Power Feed 10 and the Power Feed 10 Dual set the standard for easy to use, rugged wire feeders. They are perfectly matched for use with the Power Wave 455, resulting in a simple, high performance welding package that is built to last.
SYSTEM WIDE
• Power Wave welding performance in a simple, easy to use system.
• Set-up flexibility with one control cable that connects any combination of equipment.
• Control cables can connect as extension cords up to 200 feet.
• Can be easily upgraded from simple to high capabilities.
• Flexible platform can be easily changed from bench to boom, CV to Pulse, etc.
• Spacious inverter design for easy service.
• 3 year warranty on parts and labor.
• Manufactured under a quality system certified to ISO9002 requirements.
CONTROLS
• All controls are located on the wire feeder to eliminate confusion.
• Control box is removable for bench or boom mounting.
• Two large displays and knobs for gloved hands.
• Presettable wire feed speed or amps, and voltage or trim. Actual values displayed while welding, and for 5 seconds after welding has stopped.
• Capable of running from basic CV to high performance pulse programs.
• English or metric display.
• Control upgrades in less than 5 minutes.
WIRE FEEDER
• Four driven rolls in a heavy duty drive system. No tools needed for wire size changeover.
• Split wire guide for trouble-free loading and feeding. Perfect wire alignment and support.
• Powerful drive motor for large wires and high speeds in one model.
• Tachometer feedback for precise wire feeding.
• Wire reel stand holds 10-60 lb. wire packages on a 2” spindle. Bench feeder mounts on power source. Power Feed 10 may be used with or without optional swivel platform.
ADVANTAGE LINCOLN
The Power Feed 10 and the Power Feed 10 Dual wire feeders feature easy to understand controls and the Lincoln four driven roll feed head. These wire feeders have the strength and speed for the most demanding feeding applications, whether it’s for high speed or for large diameter wires.
Choose Power Feed 10 Dual when applications require two different wires to be utilized with no changeover time.

These come standard with both bench and boom versions of the Power Feed 10 and Power Feed 10 Dual wire feeders. The Linc-Net con­trol cable has several advantages over existing control cables:
• Common cable for all parts - The
same cable can be used between the power source and wire feeder in a bench system and between the power source, control box and wire drive in a boom system.
LINC-NET CONTROL CABLES
• Extension cord flexibility - These
control cables can be connected end-to-end for length flexibility. A single, custom length cable is no longer needed.
• Extended lengths - These cables
can be connected up to 200 ft. between any 2 components. This allows more flexibility in locating the power source and wire feeder.

SOFTWARE
Wave Designer Software
Wave Designer software allows you to program your own waveforms. It puts the power of waveform control in your hands, allowing you to customize Lincoln’s highly successful welding waveforms to meet your exact needs. Once you have made the simple connection from your PC to your Power Wave 455, designing a wave­form is easy.
Two software packages are available:
Wave Designer Software
Permits manipulation of several wave shape parameters including peak current, background current, peak pulse width and pulse. Allows for optimization of arc length.
Order K1705-1.
Wave Designer Pro Software
All the features of Wave Designer, plus Arc Scope, the arc analysis tool for those who need to monitor more than voltage and current. Arc Scope also
tracks arc power, arc resistance and energy input. Order K1705-2.
