miller syncrowave 200

Does anyone know if the syncrowave 200 will accept a external wire feeder?

It'll probably run the voltage sensing models...the miller 8 and 12vs models and the lincoln ln25 are examples.

To add to what smithboy is saying, the syncrowave is a constant current power supply rather than constant voltage, which is what is usually used for GMAW and FCAW. However, there are wire feeders designed to run off of CC supplies. These are called voltage sensing feeders, which is why he suggested them.

If you don't need ac for aluminum a Miller XMT will do both CC and CV. I am sure Lincoln has a similar model but I don't know the Model #

thanks everyone

The Sycrowave 200 is a constant Current Machine designed for TIG and Stick Welding only.

I would consider a Miller Matic 175, PassPort, DVI, 210 or 251 for your Mig Needs.

Howdy Howdy! The Lincoln version of the XMT series, is the Invertec V-350. I have the Pro advanced model, which comes with all the cool programs for spray processes, and arc control, and hot start for stick, and lift arc for tig DC all adjustable, VERY adjustable. I HIGHLY recomend these machines, in either the XMT or Invertec series. I got mine 2 years old used for 2,200. Still alot of cash, but not near the price of a new one, and with enough warrunty left, to make sure it WAS 100% the way it had was designed. It just neads a feeder with it for the GMAW, or FCAW. It would nead the stinger and leads for the SMAW process. The Tig process would nead an air cooled tig torch, appropriate gas, and pedal for controlling the amperage as well as leads. You could use a water cooled torch, with MUCH lighter and manueverable torch, but in addition it would nead a water cooler, which you MUST have turned on first before running the torch. The XMT 304 is a fine machine, and you should be able to find a good used one without any extra usually for around 1,500. And they will run on any input voltage. Inverters are very light and adjustable, but keep in mind, basically, it is a high wattage computer. Most computers don't like physical abuse, just like Inverters. It's 6 of one, or half dozen of another. I like the adjustability, and multi-process of the inverters. The weight is a bonus. Mine is somewhat stationary, so moving it around a bunch in rough conditions is not likely. Good luck! Brian Lee Sparkeee27
