Stick (SMAW) Welding Machines

Fronius has launched a new generation of the TransPocket Stick (SMAW) Welding Machines - TransPocket 150 and TransPocket 180. This new development has resulted in an impressive mix of outstanding welding results and increased range of functions. A digital resonance inverter also ensures a large number of stick electrode types can be used with perfect welding results. Thanks to their innovative Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology, the devices are very energy-efficient. TransPocket 150 and 180 have been designed as replacements for the tried and tested TransPocket 1500. The TransPocket 180 also means that, for the first time ever, a single-phase 180 A stick (SMAW) welding machine is available. The hand-held welding torches are designed primarily for stick welding and can utilize electrodes with diameters up to 5/32 inches (4.0 mm). This latest generation of power sources is also suitable for TIG welding up to 220 A, with a new TIG Multi Connector and a welding torch with an Up/Down Function at the user's disposal to adjust the welding current directly on the torch. Two-step and four-step TIG welding is possible with the TransPocket, as well as current pulsing. A multivoltage variant of the TransPocket 180 is also available. The ability to handle incoming voltages between 96 and 265 volts gives the user flexibility when operating the device. This is a major advantage when the available power changes from job site to job site. With its compact and hard-wearing structure, the TransPocket is also ideal for mobile use on construction sites.
