The ck worlwide torch is nice, but it doesn't have the 3 buttons. I know many people use the foot pedal and so they don't care that much about it, but if you use the job system, the 3 buttuons are really handy: you can save let's say 20 jobs with 20 amp increasing each, 10 jobs with no pulse and 10 with pulse frequency; if you weld in 4 strokes you can use the up and down switch to change the job during the welding process; this can simulate a foot pedal and it's very useful if you weld on the field and for all those situations in wich a foot pedal isn't confortable to use. Obviously if you weld mostly at bench the ck is a better torch. Also as you noticed on the fronius torch you just push the ceramic and it's hold in place by the black rubber ring: if you weld with high amps, especially on AC, you might have considered to go for the watercooled version of the torch, since the heat tends to deform that rubber ring and over time the ceramic will fit loose and you'll have to replace that ring. I can tell you this, cause it always happen in our factory (lots of mw5000 here) generally once every 10/15 days (with water cooled torch obviously), but here the welding machines run everyday h 24 between 280 and 450/500 amps, wich is not your cade i guess.
Thanks for the advice. I've got myself a water cooler now which is awesome. The main reason for going to the CK torch is the flex head, I've really got used to the flex head on my other machine so didn't really like the standard torch to start with. I go back and forth between the CK and the standard torch. I love the interchangeable heads but no flex head sucks! I don't have the job manager interface on my torch but the machine is generally right next to me so not a big deal
@@dceng8460 i see, about the standard torch, if you weld a bit, when the head gets warm you can gently bend it even if it's not flexible anyway, but as i said for bench jobs the ck + the pedal are the best options👍🏻
Hey I went for the wired pedal, i didn't trust the wireless in cas of lag: at the end of the day i'd use it for bench jobs, so i don't really need it to be wireless. Did you experience any lag so far, what can u say about it?
do more research, i think that would have been done before you drop Over 10 grand on a water cooler and welder and that is getting the welder with no pulse pro unlock so pule is locked at 50% and no adjucting of background amps an percentage. don't get me wrong i am about to get a new Iwave 230i with water cooler, foot pedal, spare torch heads and pulse pro unlock for site and mobile work.
Yeah man! Excellent machine.
Yewww

Good content but you've got to fix your sound ! Get a wired/wireless lav mike and dump the background music which keeps drowning out your voice.
Thanks for the feedback, yeap I have got myself a mic so hopefully the audio will improve
As much as I love Rage Against the Machine, you should turn it down a bit
Rodger that!
Stop listen this communists,good vid btw,love Fronius
Awesome video, Give us a call if you want any inforemation. Much easier then reading the manuals :)
Thanks, I need to work out how to do the firmware upgrade. I've tried a few times with no luck
hello good could you help me with the price of the equipment magc wave 230 i please

I love the wireless pedal. I haven't had any lag to report. It is definitely a luxury to have wireless of wired but I'm happy with it
@@dceng8460 nice to hear, i couldn't trust the wifi and there wasn't any review online, so i went for the classic wired 1
can hardly hear you over the music loose the music and your videos will be much better.
Rodger that
Yep….. and stop with the crazy-spiral-body-cam. I got quite spaced trying to watch the first part 🤪
11 months later…. how is it going?
