  Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  1.Q: What welding materials can this series of equipment handle?

  A: It can handle a variety of metal materials, including low-carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and aluminum alloy. For different materials, WeldNice can provide corresponding welding power supply and process parameter suggestions.

  2.Q: How many operators are required during equipment operation?

  A: Fully automatic equipment such as the Welding Column & Boom and Welding Center requires only one operator to monitor the operation status. Semi-automatic models require 1-2 operators, significantly reducing labor requirements.
  
  3.Q: Can the equipment work normally in harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, or dusty workshops?
  
  A: The equipment is designed with enhanced environmental adaptability: the electrical control cabinet adopts IP54 protection level, effectively preventing dust and moisture intrusion; key components such as motors and bearings are equipped with high-temperature resistant materials, supporting stable operation in environments with temperatures ranging from -10℃ to 45℃ and relative humidity ≤90%. In particularly harsh working conditions (such as heavy dust in steel plants), we can provide customized enhanced protection solutions (such as IP65 protection, dust-proof covers, and cooling systems) to ensure the equipment's reliability.
