The electrode welding machine S-ARC 160PFC from Stamos Power
Achieve the best welding results with hot start, anti-stick and arc force
You can adjust the welding current between 10 and 160 A using a dial on the control panel. If the power is reduced to 101 A when MMA welding, the duty cycle can be increased to the point where you can weld without interruption. The MMA welding machine with IGBT inverter does not require shielding gas, so you can work precisely even under adverse conditions, such as in high winds. With the MMA welder, you can weld materials such as steel, iron, cast iron, nickel or copper alloys.
The hot start function on the electrode welder ensures an automatic and short-term increase of the welding current at the start of the welding process. Thanks to this “Hot Start”, the starting point is immediately heated to the optimal temperature and the electrodes do not clog. You get perfect welding results from the first try.
Take advantage of TIG welding with lift-arc ignition
The arc force and anti-stick functions further optimize the welding results. The arc force regulates the arc sensor and adapts it to the perfect density for the respective material. The anti-stick function prevents the electrode from overheating and sticking to the welding material by switching off the welding current. Thanks to the sum of its features, the welder is an all-rounder for metalworking, repairs and renovation work.
By means of an additional TIG welding torch with external gas connection (not included in delivery), TIG welding with lift-arc ignition can be added to this welding unit as an additional welding mode. For this, all you have to do is select the corresponding function on the control panel.
TIG welding is for when you need or want especially clean welds, with minimal contamination, that are straight and leave sharp edges. There is no development of slags, therefore the device does not require additional cleaning. Sparks, splashes and open flames are reduced to a minimum.
You can weld almost every metal and alloy, including magnesium, copper, nickel, titanium and steel. Very thin materials can be processed with TIG welding. In practice, it is possible to weld in many different positions: Whether welding lying down, overhead, vertically or horizontally, you are always in control of all welding functions.
The lift-arc ignition method, which has a number of advantages over high-frequency ignition, plays a special role in this. It does not influence or disturb nearby sensitive electronic devices such as smartphones, computers or control systems.
The welding machine has a compact housing and is equipped with a comfortable handle. The device is cooled with a high-powered ventilator that prevents overheating. In addition, an overheat protection rounds off the safety functions of the electrode welder.

IGBT = insulated-gate bipolar transistor. IGBT is a bipolar transistor with an insulated gate electrode. This semi-conducting device is being increasingly used in power electronics because it combines the advantages of two transistor types: the easy controls of the field effect transistor and the fast switching and high breakdown voltage of the bipolar transistor. The IGBT also offers some robustness against short circuits because it limits the electrical continuity. IGBTs are a further development of MOSFET technology.

TIG/MIG and MAG welding require a protective gas. Inert gases, such as argon and helium, as well as active gases (for example carbon dioxide) and other mixtures can be used. The solenoid valve regulates the flow of gas. The valve is operated via a button on the torch.
Show moreShow lessOn the back of every welding machine is a screw with an earthing mark. Before use, earth the unit via a cross-section cable, which must be at least 6 mm².
This device works with a 3-phase connection (400 V +/- 10 %).
Through automatically boosting the tension at the ignition of the arc, this function facilitates the electrical arc ignition. After ignition, the unit automatically returns to the pre-set voltage.
Show moreShow lessThe current value increases automatically when the arc is shorter.
This function helps to prevent overheating of the electrode by switching off the welding current when the electrode sticks to the material.
A welding method in which the arc is maintained through an electrical current supplied from a non-consumable electrode. The arc is protected from the access of air by an inert gas.
