Power Wave

®

355M

The Power Wave

®

355M features some of Lincoln’s

®

best performance technologies and

processes all rolled into one highly efficient inverter power source designed for high-end
semiautomatic welding.

Superior Arc Performance. Revolutionary Communication.

Lincoln’s

®

Waveform Control Technology

®

gives you

the ability to select the right waveform for each
application—that means the arc has been optimized
for each wire type and size for exceptionally smooth
arc performance.

Utilizes ArcLink

®

—the leading digital communica-

tion protocol for welding, making it the best choice
for seamless, time critical integration with the power
source.

Push-pull capability for ultimate aluminum welding

with the Power Feed

10M wire feeder.

Pulse-On-Pulse

®

welding mode improves cleaning

action when welding aluminum and delivers a TIG-
like bead appearance.

Power Mode

®

maintains a stable, smooth arc for

short arc welding on thin materials.

State-of-the-art inverter technology provides high

power efficiency, excellent welding performance
and a lightweight, compact design.

Rigorous environmental, mechanical and weld

testing ensures ruggedness and reliability.

Three-year warranty on parts and labor.
