0460526681 - ESAB Aristo Feed 3004W Aluminum Pulse Wire Feeder

Precision Aluminum Wire Feeding Solution

The ESAB Aristo Feed 3004W MA25 Pulse Alum is a high-specification wire feed unit designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial aluminum fabrication. Engineered for seamless integration with ESAB's Aristo Mig power sources (such as the 4004i Pulse, 5000i, and U5000i), this feeder represents the upper echelon of process control and reliability. The unit is distinguished by its "W" designation, indicating a fully integrated water-cooling circuit, essential for managing the thermal loads associated with high-amperage pulse welding of aluminum structures.

At the heart of this system is the MA25 Pulse control panel. Unlike standard interface panels, the MA25 is equipped with advanced software capabilities including pre-programmed synergic lines for various aluminum grades (4xxx and 5xxx series). This allows operators to select the wire type, diameter, and gas mixture, enabling the machine to automatically calculate the optimal pulse parameters. The result is a stable, spatter-free arc that significantly reduces post-weld cleaning and rework. Furthermore, the panel features ESAB's QSet™ technology, an intelligent arc system that automatically fine-tunes welding parameters in the short arc range to maintain stability despite variations in stick-out length.

Mechanically, the Aristo Feed 3004W utilizes a robust 4-roll drive system. This is critical for aluminum applications where wire softness can lead to feeding issues with standard 2-roll systems. The 4-roll configuration ensures positive traction and consistent wire delivery speeds between 0.8 and 25.0 m/min without crushing the wire, thereby preventing liner clogging and burn-backs. The unit is encased in a durable, galvanized metal housing designed to withstand harsh industrial environments, making it an ideal choice for shipbuilding, offshore fabrication, and heavy automotive manufacturing.
