At the moment , the inverter welding machine has become widespread due to the fact that it has a lot of advantages: convenience, compactness and lightness. In everyday life and construction, such units are used for manual DC welding of almost all metals using coated melting electrodes. The device can be connected to a household electrical network, and even a person who does not have a special education in this field can work with it. All inverters have protection against overheating, and many have additional functions.
An inverter welding machine is equipment built on the basis of an inverter circuit, that is, a conventional transformer is replaced here with an electronic circuit capable of converting an alternating current to a direct current. It is such a constructive solution that makes it possible to make this type of equipment easy and easy to use. In addition, the welding machine-inverter is notable for its efficiency, which makes it a fairly popular representative of this type of equipment. Mobility and high technical performance, as well as reliability in operation - these are some of the advantages of this equipment.
Before choosing a welding machine-inverter, you should know about what advantages it has, in addition to those previously indicated:
- light weight - not more than 10 kilograms - in combination with a rather modest size (while the same power is retained on the arc as with conventional devices);
- welding inverters are ready to work from the moment they are connected, which allows you to adjust the welding current during operation;
- during operation, the device stably delivers direct current, which goes regardless of the voltage change: the metal is not sprayed during welding; Exceptionally low power consumption is an indisputable advantage of this type of equipment (this allows you to work from a generator or city electricity network);
- microprocessors that are included in the equipment of most welding inverters allow fixing and reproducing the inverter welding modes ; the welding converter provides the highest level of quality of the work performed, therefore it is relevant to use in cases where the quality of the seams is in the first place;
- the welding machine-inverter is the safest and easiest type of equipment designed for welding.
To purchase this type of equipment, it is important to determine the list of works that you decide to carry out with its help. If you do not have certain knowledge and skills regarding working with welding machines, it is important to first consult with specialists in this field, and then make the final decision about which type of device to choose.
It is worth saying that at the moment there are several manufacturers that can be considered leaders in this field: Resanta, Greenline, ProfHelper. It is up to you to decide which product to choose.
