Reply:Yep, you can buy a TIG cold wire feeder from CK worldwide.  No oscillation on that one, but I'm sure it improves productivity an order of magnitude still.  An even better alternative is the TopTig system by Oerlikon.

Reply:Hotwire can be good for quality since it'll burn off any contaminants. Probably not with those systems though, the high quality hotwire systems have huge wire nozzles with supplementary cover gas to cool the system and keep the wire from oxidizing when it heats up after the contact tip. The ones meant for automation can have water cooled jackets around the contact tip.Tons of companies make those systems, both in hotwire and coldwire, but I'm always suspicious of the lesser known ones who make manual hotwire systems. They tend to look a little janky like this one http://www.tiptig-international.com/AllinOneFeeder.html which is scary. Depending on material/thickness sometimes you run 100+ amps on the hotwire side of the system to preheat it enough, doing that with what appears to be a metal attachment bracket connected to the torch body gives me some pucker factor. It'd be like holding onto the bare metal of a liner or contact tip of a MIG gun while you weld, I'd rather not. Even scarier if that cable they have attached to the bracket is the hotwire line itself since that's an open electrical connection at that point. A cooler process in my opinion is the MIG/Laser hybrid stuff. Ever seen a double sided fillet weld made in one pass?
