Lightning MTS 275 w/ Tig Package
The Lightning MTS 275 is the latest in the MIG/TIG/STICK line of welders to feature AC/DC TIG welding capability. This new unit features revised synergic function now called "Power Set" and now includes auto set parameters for all three modes. The 275 Amp unit excels not only in features, it also excels with performance. The new design allows the user to view most all relevant settings simulaneously. This reduces scrolling effort and allows near instantaneous adjustment of all common parameters in use. The PowerSET function allows the customer to enter basic operating parameters in MIG, TIG, or Stick mode, and automatically selects the proper Amps and Volts (where applicable) for the user, as well as a few other possible adjustments. This new unit also features a Flux-Core mode for operation with most common types of Flux Core wire (without gas/self shielding). As powerful as the welder is, it is also capable of operating on 120V if the unit needs to be carried to the work. Of course, you'll have reduced output, but you will not suffer for lack of available duty cycle. As far as operating duty cycle at full-tilt output, the machine musters a respectable 35% duty cycle in MIG and TIG modes. Stick mode yields an impressive 60% duty cycle at maximum amperage. Stepping down just a notch on power, in both MIG, and TIG modes at 250 Amps, you'll have a heavy industrial rating of 60% duty cycle. Stepping down slightly for Stick, at 160 Amps, you'll have 100% Duty Cycle available. Add the PowerCool 400 for a convenient, stacked design to complete this welder.
Features & Benefits:
New! PowerSET function for easy MIG, AC-DC TIG, and DC Setup
Large, easy to read 480 resolution TFT Digital Screen
Displays multiple relevant settings simultaneously, allows quick adjustment
High Frequency and Lift Start AC and DC TIG modes for a true "all in one" design
Digitally controlled operation in all modes improve control and dependability.
Operator friendly panel without complicated hidden menus or adjustments with grouped controls.
Synergic function MIG automatically adjusts wire speed while voltage is increased or decreased. This maintains a preset ratio of volts and amps that can be tweaked manually by user for best operation.
Manual Override of PowerSET function allows the user to regain control of at any point to fine tune settings and allows operation in full manual mode if desired.
Weld Aluminum, Stainless, or Steel with Synergic MIG function with wire diameter from .023- .045" (for full range of sizes and flux core use, purchase optional drive rolls).
Memory function provides easy saving and recall of your favorite settings.
Spool gun with PowerSET function with optional spool gun. Ideal for welding aluminum.
TIG torch and Foot pedal included for TIG. Regulator included.
Built in dual gas solenoid and connections for TIG eliminates need for gas valve torch used by competitors
True DC CC/CV Multi-Process design eliminates needing or carrying multiple units for one job.
AC capability on TIG allows user to weld aluminum. Industry first for this type design.
Pulse TIG capability increases control and weld quality.
Compact and light weight design makes the unit extremely portable, ideal for on-site fabrication.
Adjustable Burn-back control keeps the wire energized after wire has stopped feeding to allow the wire to melt back to a desired length without retrimming wire before restarts.
12" Diameter wire spool capacity maintains portability while maintaining productivity.
Adjustable MIG Wave arc force control manages slope/ inductance and fine tunes arc characteristics.
Adjustable stick Arc Force and New Hot Start controls allows the user to dial in desired Stick welding performance.
TIG Up and Down slope allows the user to control the end of the welding cycle.
2T/4T torch trigger/latch function offers stepped control welding with TIG and MIG.
Adjustable Pre and Post flow for TIG and MIG operation improves over all weld quality.
275 Amps of MIG and TIG power offer more than enough power to get the job done. 200 amps of stick welding power can be used with up to 3/16" welding rods.
Dual Voltage design will operate on 120V or 240V. Output on 120V is limited to 150 amps MIG/TIG/ 120 amps Stick.
AC Wave form control with Advanced Square, Triangular, and Soft Square Waves
