Not All Pulse Machines Are Equal
Single pulse gives you tighter heat control and a steadier arc, making it easier to lay down clean, consistent welds. Spatter is kept to a minimum, which means fewer defects, less distortion on thin material and reduced post cleanup time.
MIG Smart-Set
Ready to weld with the press of a few buttons. Simply select your joint type, filler wire, gas mixture, and wire diameter, and the machine will choose the ideal settings. If it’s a little off, you can make manual adjustments to finetune every weld.
High-Frequency TIG Start
Strike the arc without touching the tungsten to the workpiece. High-frequency ignition protects the tungsten from contamination, improves arc stability and gives you access to the full TIG cycle, including pre gas, post gas and controlled slope settings.
TIG Smart-Set
Starting a weld has never been faster with the class-leading synergic TIG. Choose your material, joint type, tungsten diameter, plate thickness, and gas mixture, and you’re off and running. If it’s not quite right, you can tweak the parameters to perfection.
Digital Geared Wire Feed System
For a consistent and smooth wire-feeding experience. The geared wire drive unit gives more power pushing to the wire, improving the wire feeding, especially in longer torches.
Accessories
Ready for any kind of welding you've got planned, connect a complete range of MIG, TIG or MMA accessories to your welder.
Enjoy greater control and precision with our optional foot control accessory. This handy feature allows you to easily adjust your TIG amperage on the fly, without interrupting your torch movement.
Make welding aluminium even easier. No need to change your existing setup. The spool gun lets you quickly switch over and get any job done with no downtime.
Power Factor Correction (PFC)
Get the most out of your machine. The PFC maximises the electrical efficiency of the machine and automatically compensates for any voltage fluctuations, so you get more output power and the internal components last longer.
Advanced IGBT Inverter Technology
Our IGBT inverter platform delivers higher efficiency, stronger arc stability and more consistent power delivery. It runs cooler, responds faster to changes in arc demand and provides the reliability needed for modern welding applications.
Smart Fan Technology
The fan runs only when needed, reducing noise, cutting power use and limiting the dust drawn into the machine. This keeps internal components cleaner and helps extend the overall life of the unit.
10A Plug
Ready to run on any domestic outlet. Simple to power, easy to move and built for anyone who needs a portable welding setup.
Advanced MMA Features
Advanced MMA features are designed for improving weld quality and ease of use.
The Arc Force feature helps to keep the arc stabilised throughout the weld, by increasing or decreasing the peak current to compensate for your arc length, preventing the arc from cutting out or the electrode from sticking.
The Anti Stick feature, which is always on, prevents your electrode from sticking to your workpiece. When the machine detects sticking, the current will drop significantly, so the electrode can be removed.
The adjustable hot start is designed to help with striking an arc. The hot start temporarily boosts the output current at the start, making striking an arc, even with difficult electrodes, much easier. You get smoother arc starts, improving the quality of your weld.
Additional Features
Job Memory
The job memory function allows you to enter and store weld parameter settings. Weld parameters can be further adjusted and stored as required. A total of 10 jobs can be memorised and stored for recall.
Adjustable Arc Length
Get absolute precision on your settings. The adjustable arc length allows you to increase or decrease the preselected voltage while in synergic and pulse MIG modes.
Inductance Control
Take complete control of your arc with the inductance settings. By changing the frequency of your short circuit MIG welds with the Inductance controls, you can choose your preferred arc characteristics on every weld.
Burnback Adjustment
Stop your wire from ever fusing with your weld or your contact tips again. Tune your burnback control to suit how much wire you want to remain sticking out from your torch when you finish a weld.
Generator Compatible
Take it anywhere. Connect the machine to a generator and use it wherever, whenever you need it. We recommend 10kVA for this machine.
Lightweight & Portable
Weighing just 13.5kg, you can take this machine with you anywhere.
