  • the amount of push force applied by the wire feeder 24 on the wire 100 is such that, if rollers adjacent the welding site stall or stop, the wire feeder 24 stalls, movement of the wire 100 stops and the wire 100 is pushed back toward the wire feeder 24 with a constant load. If the rollers stall or stop moving, the wire feeder 24 keeps a constant load on the wire 100 so that when the rollers begin to move, the wire 100 is moved at a constant and steady rate of flow to the welding site.
