Inverter ARC Welding Machine

How Does It Work? An inverter welding machine converts alternate current to a lower usable voltage output. For instance, from 240V AC power supply to 20V DC power output. Inverter-based appliances use a couple of electronic parts to transform power. Inverters are also called AC Drives, or VFD (variable frequency drive). They are electronic devices that can turn DC (Direct Current) to AC (Alternating Current). It is also responsible for controlling speed and torque for electric motors. Arc welding is a type of welding process using an electric arc to create heat to melt and join metals. A power supply creates an electric arc between a consumable or non-consumable electrode and the base material using either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) currents .An inverter welder has a power output of 93% as compared to transformer welding machines. The level of production with transformer welders is 60%. The inverter technology reduces the size of the transformer and the proportionate weight of the welder
