WELDING DEVICE MIG 255A
The MIG 255A from Vector Welding is a MIG/MAG
welder with 30-255A in MIG/MAG mode, 30-170A in MMA mode, and
10-200A in TIG mode (optional).
The MIG/MAG welding process
with its automatic wire feed is suitable for many
welding applications, even when working in hard-to-reach places.

255A PROPERTIES & ADVANTAGES:
MIG/MAG: Welding with automatic wire feed. In MIG welding Argon (more rarely helium) is used as shielding gas, this process is preferably used for non-ferrous metals and stainless steel. The MAG process uses CO2is based on CO2 or a mixed gas of argon, CO2 and O2 as shielding gas and is mainly used for simple and low-alloy steel such as mild steel.

Settings according to wire thickness: If you set the wire thickness (0.6 | 0.8 | 1), an ampere (A) and wire feed speed adapted to the selected wire thickness appears. The amperage can be changed within the given range. .
- In SPL Mode, amps and volts can be set independently. A higher volt slows the wire speed down. A lower volt accelerates the wire feed. This is a great advantage when an individual setting is required. With the help of the job memory the settings can be saved and easily reused at a later date.
Inductance: The device has a continuously adjustable choke. This smoothes the welding current and changes the rate of current rise so that the weld seam quality and precision is improved.
2 cycles/4 cycles (MIG/MAG and TIG)
MMA/STICK/E-HAND: coated electrodes are used - bin this process, the electrodes are arc carriers and filler metal in one.
hot start: each time the welding unit is restarted, overcurrent is provided to support the ignition of the arc.
Arc Force: Melted material transfers to the workpiece more easily. Prevents the arc from going out if this material causes contact between the electrode and the molten pool.
Anti-stick automatically switches off the welding generatoroff, if the electrode sticks to the workpiece and has to be removed by hand without damaging the electrode clamp.
DC-WIG welding (optional: only possible with additional hose package and cables): Welding of almost all metals
Lift Arc: Ignition takes place on contact with the workpiece, then the torch can be lifted and welding starts with the selected parameters.
Modern IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) enables fast and therefore low-loss switching of electrical currents
