3. Táirge Tharview

The HITBOX ARC200E is a versatile welding machine offering three primary welding processes:

• Stick Welding (MMA): Compatible with 1.6–4.0mm electrodes, suitable for welding material thickness of 2–10mm. Excellent for basic and cellulosic electrodes (E7018, E7016, E7028, E8018, E6010, E6011) in addition to acidic electrodes like E6013.
• Flux Cored MIG: Compatible with 0.8–1.0mm flux-cored wire, suitable for welding material thickness of 1–8mm. Requires a spool gun (sold separately).
• Ardaitheoir TIG: Compatible with 1.6–2.4mm tungsten rods, suitable for welding material thickness of 1–4mm. A Lift TIG torch (e.g., WP17V) is not included and must be purchased separately.

Príomhghnéithe:

• 81V High No-Load Voltage: Provides stronger starting power, higher arc stability, and greater arc penetration, ideal for various electrodes and long-distance welding.
• Synergic Control: Automatically matches welding parameters to material thickness and current, simplifying setup and ensuring optimal weld quality.
• TFT-LCD Large Display: Offers an intuitive, informative, and user-friendly interface with better visibility compared to traditional LED displays.
• Adjustable Hot Start & Arc Force: Improves arc initiation and stability, enhancing weld quality.
• Anti-stick & VRD: Provides operational flexibility and enhanced safety.
