Developed.
Our engineers examine every detail to develop products that are intuitive, reliable and function as expected. This machine encompasses several innovative features such as an integrated rubber mat for tool storage, legs that double as a torch hanger, easy-to-operate controls, and longer power cables and torches for a larger working area. While these features are important, we’ve also designed and engineered these machines with exceptional arc characteristics that ensure an extraordinary welding and cutting performance.
Tested.
The printed circuit board and its assembly are all done in P.R.C., but our technicians assemble the machine with parts consisting of sheet metal, aluminum die cast parts, aluminum extrusion handles, and knobs that are manufactured in the U.S.A. We believe it is imperative to keep as many jobs in the U.S.A. as possible while providing exceptional value to our customers. Our technicians thoroughly test and document every machine for safety, reliability and functionality before neatly packaging and verifying the contents.
