Matrix 2200 AC/DC

The powerful, compact and lightweight MATRIX 2200 AC/DC is the most innovative and technologically advanced single-phase power source ever developed. Its user-friendly digital controls offer advanced functions and maintain exceptionally stable welding parameters, ensuring very high-quality welds in both TIG and MMA welding. It is ideal for all qualified welding applications and maintenance work where performance and portability are required. It enables DC TIG welding of carbon steel, stainless steel, copper and its alloys, as well as AC TIG welding of aluminium and its alloys. read more…

Key features:

coldTACK

An innovative spot welding tool for precise, secure joining with minimal heat input. The “Multi-coldTACK” function enables a rapid series of cold spots, further extending the benefits of a single spot. With the “Perfect-Point” function, coldTACK enables the most precise spot positioning.

RCT – Running coldTACK

RCT stands for Running coldTACK; the TIG RCT process allows all the benefits of coldTACK to be exploited by continuously repeating individual coldTACK spots to produce a cool, perfect weld. With TIG RCT, the weld is much cooler than that achievable with pulsed TIG welding, making it an ideal solution for welding thin materials with very low heat input. TIG RCT is a DC process and is not available for AC welding.

AC WAVEFORM CONTROL

DYNAMIC TIG – Square wave: high arc dynamics for all applications.
SOFT TIG – Sine wave: smoother and softer, with less noise, ideal for medium thicknesses.
SPEED TIG – Mixed wave: optimum penetration at high welding speeds and low electrode consumption.
COLD TIG – Triangular wave: low heat input with reduced distortion, ideal for thin materials.
BALANCE PLUS Allows independent control of both current duration and amplitude while maintaining positive or negative polarity, providing complete control over penetration and arc cleaning, with a significant reduction in lateral undercut.

VRD Voltage Reduction Device

The VRD reduces the open-circuit voltage to below 12 V, allowing the machine to be used in highly hazardous environments while maximising operator safety.

PFC – Power Factor Correction (Cos f=1)

The PFC device converts the waveform of the current drawn from the mains into a sine wave, eliminating harmonic distortion and optimising energy use. This allows the power source to be used across its full range on a 16 A fuse.

  • High duty cycle (40°C) 150 A @ 60% in MMA, 140 A @ 100% in TIG
  • Low energy consumption (-30%)
  • High reliability when used with a generator
  • Can be used with mains cables over 100 m long
  • Automatic compensation for mains voltage fluctuations of ±20%
  • Excellent TIG and MMA welding characteristics with all types of electrodes, including cellulose electrodes
  • Digital ammeter and voltmeter with last reading hold
  • ENERGY SAVING function operates the power source cooling fan and torch water cooling only when needed
  • 4 TIG pulse modes: slow, fast and ULTRA FAST pulse mode (500 – 2000 Hz) and synergic “SYN PULSE” as standard.
  • Welding parameters can be stored (99 JOBS/programmes)
  • Up/down TIG torches allow welding parameters and stored JOBS to be adjusted directly from the torch.
