The Polysoude TIGer - burning bright in the world of industry


The Polysoude TIGer Cladding System represents the next evolutionary stage in Hot Wire Technology.


n this unrivalled system, Polysoude has built on the main principle of Hot Wire Technology; this being the preheating of filler material, in order to reduce the quantity energy taken from the electrical arc, required to melt the filler, thereby assuring increased productivity of cladding speed and deposition rate.

The Technical Leap… With its remarkable properties, the TIGer system represents a leap forward in Hot Wire Technology! In addition to the pre-heated filler wire, TIGer incorporates a unique system of two tungsten electrodes in tandem configuration. This allows the ignition of two electrical arcs, which, by way of mutual

attraction, combine to convey a single heat source. This single heat source has a lower arc

pressure than in classic tandem configurations, yet it is capable of reaching much higher cladding


speeds and deposition rates than the standard TIG/GMAW HW process.
