Abstract:
A welding system, in certain embodiments, includes a synchronization controller configured to override a first nominal calibration of a first wire drive, or a second nominal calibration of a second wire drive, or both, in response to a tension condition or a compression condition of a welding wire feeding between the first and second wire drives. A welding system, in other embodiments, includes a welding wire drive having a motor, a controller, a nominal calibration, and a multi-drive synchronization parameter. The multi-drive synchronization parameter may be configured to control speed, or torque, or both, of multiple drives including the welding wire drive to facilitate synchronization of the multiple drives.
