Lincoln Electric PowerTec I420S Inverter MIG Welder With LF56D Control Panel – 400V

The PowerTec welder range from Lincoln Electric is a brand new inverter based platform for use in industrial welding applications. The platform provides high quality MIG/MAG and Arc MMA performance with excellent arc quality and unrivalled cost efficiency.

PowerTec compact welding machines are available in both STANDARD and ADVANCED versions. The STANDARD package is a typical voltage and wire feed speed control system. The ADVANCED system is a fully synergic control system; this allows the user to programme material thickness, wire diameter and wire type to produce perfect welding parameters for each weld. Both systems are available in air cooled & water cooled versions.

Ideal industries for the Powertec inverter based MIG welders include:

• General fabrication
• Structural steelwork
• Automotive industry
• Maintenance
• Repair

Lincoln Electric, one of the biggest brand names in welding, take pride in the outrageously high quality of the PowerTec range. Noteable features include repeatable crisp arc ignition which results in outstanding arc characteristics, excellent arc stability, smooth droplet transfer, reduced spatter and rapid parameter adjustments.

In addition to the technical innovations that the PowerTec range boasts there are also incredibly useful innovations in the overall design of the systems. For example:

• Ergonomic handle for safe movement of the machine
• Built in cable management system for easy transportation of welding cables
• New encoders
• Weld quality data monitored, logged and recorded using a USB storage system
• Audio signals when adjusting encoders
• Tilting gas bottle tray for ease of loading
• Small footprint
• UI protection cover
• 7″ colour screen
• LED lighting inside feed chamber
• Inspection window on wire feed door

One key aspect to take note of is the state of the arc technology in the wire feed unit. It has 4 individually driven rollers which makes for extremely stable wire feeding of even the most difficult wire types. The aluminium housing makes for a long service life. Finally, the tool-free roller change makes for simple transition between welding wires.
