Continuum™ 500
The Continuum 500 delivers exceptional arc performance with less spatter and higher-quality welds on both thin and thick metals.
Smart and powerful digital design
has the fast response needed to deliver the most stable welding performance for better welding results.
Developed as a platform
to meet current and future needs with integrated expansion capabilities.
Welding information management systems
Insight Core™ (standard) and Insight Centerpoint™ (optional), improve your welding operations by increasing productivity, improving quality and managing costs.
Wind Tunnel Technology™
Internal air flow that protects electrical components and PC boards from dirt, dust, debris—greatly improving reliability.
Fan-On-Demand™
operates only when needed reducing noise, power consumption, and the amount of airborne contaminants pulled through the machine.
Auto-Line™ power management technology
allows for any input voltage hook-up (230–575 V) with no manual linking, providing convenience in any job setting. Eliminates weld defects caused by dirty or unreliable power.
Display and controls
for program select, volts/arc length and wire feed speed.
Memory buttons
for quick program recall.
LCD setup screen
for easy selection of welding processes and functions. Industrial design, full color display.
Arc control
to fine tune the welding arc.
Trigger hold, jog and purge buttons
Tru-Feed™ technology
provides precise feeding operation for stable arc performance.
Low-inertia motor
provides faster response for the best arc starts with the least amount of spatter.
Balanced-pressure drive-roll design and tensioners
feed wire in its truest and straightest form for consistent feedability, resulting in better welding performance.
Spring-loaded Accu-Mate™ connection
aligns gun perfectly in the drive-roll carrier— preventing the gun from being pulled loose and providing consistent wire feeding.
Toolless positivelocking rotatable drive assembly
allows operator to rotate the drive, eliminating severe bends in the wire feed path. This extends gunliner life and aids in feeding difficult wires.
