STAHLWERK ARC 160 MD electrode welding machine DC MMA, E-hand, lift-TIG welder | Infinitely adjustable | True 160 Amps | Very compact and light | Hot start, anti-stick, smart cooling | IGBT technology

• MMA electrode welding / ARC welding as a universal welding process. An electric arc melts the electrode, forming the weld seam. No protective gas is required and can therefore be used flexibly anywhere.
• Can be expanded into a DC TIG welding machine with our optionally available WP-17V Universal Lift TIG torch.
• Lightweight & compact design: Weighs only 3.3 kg and measures 269 x 116 x 187 mm. Innovative IGBT transistors save space and weight compared to old MOSFET technology. No more heavy carrying!
• The set welding current can be easily read on a clear display. The welding current can be adjusted continuously from 20 to 160 A using a rotary control.
• IGBT technology: Latest and most modern transistor technology enables maximum performance and duty cycle at full power! No transformer, no MOSFET, state-of-the-art IGBT!
• Highest efficiency & performance: Single-phase alternating current (230V) supplies the device and allows an output power of real 160 amps.

• IGBT single board (compact inverter design): High switching frequency for stable welding currents, thermal stability and high efficiency with flexible, mobile usability.
• Hotstart (optimized start): Automatic voltage increase during ignition improves start quality, reduces electrode sticking and warms up the start of the seam more quickly.
• Anti-stick (against sticking): Automatic reduction of the welding current when the electrode sticks allows for easy removal and prevents the electrode from overheating/annealing.
• Smart cooling and overheating protection (maximum power available): High-performance cooling with integrated overheating protection for reliable continuous operation and safe power delivery.
• Electronics protection package: Overheating, overvoltage and overcurrent protection increase service life and operational safety.
• Demand-controlled fan: Fan only runs when needed - resulting in less dust and less noise.
• Robust ST-Guard housing: Ergonomic, shock-resistant, with easily accessible control panel for construction site/workshop use.
• Wide range of applications: Suitable for many common types of electrodes and material thicknesses in the hobby and professional sectors.
• 230 V operation: Single-phase connection 230 V / 50-60 Hz, fuse with C characteristic according to the manual.

Note: The device is not intended for use in residential areas where power is supplied via a public low-voltage power supply system. It may be difficult to ensure electromagnetic compatibility in these areas due to both conducted and radiated interference.
