It’s recommended for 90% of jobs, and if you’re just starting out you won’t need anything bigger. The 200A has the lowest power output, but that’s still plenty for 90% of jobs, and if you’re just starting out you won’t need anything bigger.
The 200A inverter welder is ideal for jobs like adding a car tow bar to your car, or installing boat accessories, and fabricating metal racks. It’s also useful for repairing caravans, pressure equipment, agricultural equipment, and even household objects like furniture or sheds.
IGBT Technology
Since the market development, the advantages of IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) has been widely used in all kinds of inverter. Compared with MOSFET power switch, the IGBT power switch has a very high switching speed, high efficiency and high reliability ,and can achieve a high conversion efficiency of power switch.
But the IGBT technology has its own problems. It’s difficult to debug its circuit, it’s easy to burn out and hard to test. So IGBT technology is mature only in last 20 years, and it will take a long time for it to become mature.
The high frequency welding electric arc is with the advantages of small size,light weight, good compactness, high welding efficiency ,low power consumption, high current and voltage compensation capability, stable welding intensity, easy to adjust, high compensation intensity, high welding speed and high efficiency.
