Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) by Fronius offers an innovative approach to welding with dramatically reduced heat input and up to 99% less spatter. Using oscillating wire motion, the CMT process delivers exceptionally stable arcs, enabling precise droplet control and seamless welds on thin materials, aluminum, galvanized steel, and even dissimilar metals.
With twice the welding speed of standard dip transfer processes and minimal post-weld cleanup, CMT is a top choice for applications requiring tight tolerances, clean finishes, or low distortion. Download the full brochure to learn how CMT supports automotive, additive manufacturing, and advanced fabrication use cases.
The Fronius LSC (Low Spatter Control) welding package is engineered to deliver consistent arc stability with up to 75% less spatter compared to conventional dip transfer processes. Using soft reignition and advanced digital control, LSC creates cleaner welds, reduces filler material waste, and lowers rework demands across a range of steel and CrNi applications.
LSC is ideal for out-of-position welding, root passes, and galvanized sheet metal work, providing strong arc control even with long hosepacks. With integrated penetration stabilizers, LSC ensures consistent performance and high weld quality. Download the brochure for a full overview of this efficient, cost-saving solution.
