Multi-Process Welder Helps Beginners Weld Like a Pro
Victor Technologies (St. Louis, MO) launched the Tweco® Fabricator® 141i 3-in-1 welder, a multi-process welder that runs off 115V household power. Built to meet professional standards, the MIG, Stick and TIG performance of the Tweco Fabricator 141i is perfect for DIY and home hobby use, as well as other light duty welding projects in motorsports, auto repair, farm/ranch, metal art and maintenance applications. It offers 10 to 140 amps of power for MIG and Lift TIG welding and 90 amps for Stick welding.
Push button controls, LED displays and a Quick Start Guide enables first time welders to set up the unit and start welding in a very short time. An easy to use set-up chart inside the side panel guides users with helpful diagrams and welding parameter recommendations.
The Tweco Fabricator 141i uses advanced technology that provides many exceptional benefits compared to older conventional MIG-only welders. Multi-process welding output allows users to select among MIG, Stick, or TIG, based on the best process for a particular project or application.
The easy-to-use features and excellent arc performance help beginners learn to weld like a pro. Additionally, the unit is highly portable, weighs just 32.2 lbs., has a higher duty cycle, and allows users to weld longer on thicker material.
The Tweco Fabricator 141i is a fully integrated system; it incorporates a built-in gas solenoid valve and wire feed system for MIG welding, and accepts 4 in or 8 in spools of wire. With a list price of $699 for the complete system solution and $849 for a complete system solution with a cart, the system is priced about the same as MIG-only welders.
The Tweco Fabricator 141i is the first welding power source from Victor Technologies to carry the Tweco brand name with the black and yellow Tweco colors. “The move reflects the company’s commitment as an innovative provider of specialty welding system solutions and the strong industrial heritage of the Tweco brand,” says David Wilton, vice president, global welding products, Victor Technologies.
