An arc welding machine is disclosed for providing a continuous feed electrode to a weld site. The arc welding machine includes a line frequency transformer having a primary winding, a first secondary winding, and a second secondary winding (e.g., an extension winding, a separate winding, etc.). The first secondary winding provides a welding power having a first voltage at a welding power output terminal. The second secondary winding provides a second welding power having a second higher voltage at an input terminal of a switch, the switch being controlled to provide a pulsed power at the welding power output terminal. According to one feature, the arc welding machine produces a pulsed power having a fixed pulse width and a fixed frequency, the fixed pulse width and fixed frequency being substantially free of operator adjustment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION These and other limitations in the prior art have been overcome by the present invention which, according to one embodiment, is an arc welding machine for providing a continuous feed electrode to a weld site.
The machine includes a line frequency transformer having a primary winding, a first secondary winding and a second secondary winding.
The first secondary winding provides a welding power having a first voltage at a welding power output terminal.
The second secondary winding provides a second welding power having a second higher voltage at an input terminal of a switch.
The switch is controlled to provide a pulsed power at the welding power output terminal.
According to another exemplary embodiment, an arc welding machine is disclosed for providing a continuous feed electrode to a weld site.
The machine includes a line frequency transformer means including first and second secondary windings for receiving a line frequency power and for providing first and second welding powers.
The second welding power has a higher voltage than the first welding power.
The machine includes a first means for receiving the first welding power and for providing a background welding power at the welding power output.
The machine further includes a second means for receiving the second welding power and for providing a pulsed welding power at the welding power output terminal.
According to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an arc welding machine is disclosed for providing a continuous feed electrode to a weld site.
The machine includes a power circuit to provide a pulsed welding power to the weld site having a fixed frequency and a fixed pulse width, whereby the fixed frequency and fixed pulse width are substantially free of operator adjustment.
According to a further feature of this embodiment, the power circuit also provides the pulsed welding power having a substantially fixed peak current.
According to yet another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an arc welding machine is disclosed for providing a continuous feed filler wire to a weld site
