ADAPTABLE USER INTERFACE FOR WELDING WIRE FEEDERS

Abstract:

Systems and methods for an adjustable user interface for a wire feeder are provided. In some examples, welding power supplies, welding accessories, and/or welding wire feeders and welding wire feeder systems are equipped with one or more user interfaces adaptable to change position, orientation, or location, relative to a housing or support on which the user interface is secured. The adaptable user interfaces may be secured to a mount (e.g., an enclosure, a case, a surface, etc.) via one or more fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, magnets, straps, snap-fit, detents, pins, etc.). For example, the fasteners may create a non-permanent joint between the user interface and the mount, such that the position, orientation, or location user interface may be adapted for a desired application.
