4 Popular Types of Welding Machines

A welding machine is one of the greatest inventions in the world. It plays a vital role in combing two or more metals or alloys using another metal component. It’s mainly used to strengthen the weaker parts of metals and give a definite shape to shapeless metals. Large-sized welding machines are used for commercial purposes in the factories, while the small or medium sized machines are used for home uses.

Inverter Welding Machines

Also known as inverter welding units, the inverter welding machines are innovative type of welders that provide you with a number of benefits you don’t find with conventional welding units. Inverter welding machine (เครื่อง เชื่อม อิน เวอร์ เตอร์, which is the term in Thai) employs a sophisticated silicon-based technology in comparison to traditional welders that use heavy aluminum/copper rectifiers and transformers. Due to its wide range of benefits, inverter welding units are gaining ground among welders all over the world.

MIG Welding Machines

It’s an ideal choice for home, industry and workshops. These welding machines can weld a multitude of different metals such as stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum. It’s used to weld metal parts with super-fast time. It’s also able to offer a long arc-time even when electrodes aren’t fully charged.

Tig Welding Machines

Providing neat and clean welding without sparks, fumes and splatter is something welding machines are known for. The metal used in TIG welding units are brass, stainless steel, gold, copper, aluminum, magnesium, gold, and nickel alloys. However, it’s not suitable for field and site work.

Spot Welding Machines

This welding machine is used to link the overlap steel sheets. Each metal sheet is 3-mm thick. These sheets can also be protected by a set of electrodes by running the current through them.
