1-phase power source. The Migmater® has excellent arc characteristics when MIG
welding with either CO2 or Argon/CO2 shielding gas. The units are each equipped
with a multi-step voltage switch and wire speed control for easy setting of
welding parameters. Units are fan-cooled and equipped with thermal overload
protection.
MIG or FCAW - Easy to change polarity makes it simple to switch between
MIG solid wires and self-shielded flux cored wires. The Migmaster® is designed
to weld steel, stainless steel and aluminum.
