Management

Inverter-based technology definitely can reduce wasted time and certainly lower costs. When you experience problems such as Difficulty moving heavy welding machines to the work site, downtime caused while waiting for a forklift, truck, or crane to move the welding machine. Inability to bring a larger welding machine close to the job site while working in tight spaces. Inverter-based welding machines can solve all of these problems because their advanced technology dramatically lowers machine weight and size, provides primary power management capabilities not possible with conventional welding technology, and delivers unbeatable arc performance.

Today's inverter technology makes machines easier to operate. Their enhanced arc starts and arc performance can turn an average welding machine into a good welding machine, leading to improved weld quality and fewer rejects. In an average welding operation, labor accounts for 85% of the cost. Measuring how much a repair costs includes time spent to bring the welding machine and the work together, welding equipment setup time, material preparation time, arc-on time, welding cleanup time, any rework time, time spent moving the welding machine between jobs and time spent returning the welding machine to the tool crib or storage space.

Saving time by bringing a lightweight inverter to the work does no good if there isn't anywhere to plug it in. An inverter provides location flexibility through two types of primary power management technology: automatic linking technology and automatic power management technology. People encountering an inverter for the first time usually cannot believe that such a small machine provides so much welding output. Inverters also provide outstanding power efficiency, which can lower electricity bills by almost 60%, and make good use of the primary power being supplied, which is known as good power factor.
