The APEX 30M controller offers the power of synchronizing amps, volts, travel speed and oscillation combined with powerful wire-feeding performance. Part of the APEX 3 Series platform of mechanized controllers, it is designed with the patented MAXTRAC® Wire Drive System, delivering the wire-feeding results you need for maximizing welding productivity and quality. The APEX 30M controller is engineered primarily for GMAW / FCAW processes, but it can also be configured for GTAW processes. Incorporating an enclosed housing, wire feeder and a spool holder allows for quick and easy setup in the shop or in the field. Weighing less than 50 lbs. (23 kg) with a convenient handle on top, it's as mobile as it is functional. Built as part of a digital platform geared towards reducing product obsolescence, the APEX 30M controller is designed for a longer service life as future enhancements to welding technologies become available.
