ESAB Fabricator EM 401i Rugged and Reliable Inverter

Interdiction

Fabricator are heavy duty inverter controlled power sources for MIG/MAG and MMA (Stick) welding. Built to withstand rugged use which makes it a perfect solution for industrial usage. Ideal for heavy industries using solid and flux-cored wires together with Fabricator Feed.

  • Rugged and Reliable welding system for heavy application, 400 A or 500 A at 60% Duty Cycle
  • Three variants, one 500 with integrated cooling unit and two 400 with and without cooling unit
  • Energy savings with high power factor, high efficiency and low idle power
  • Lower cost of operation. Delivers all the added benefits of an inverter technology at a similar price as a conventional transformer machine
  • The machine is built in with integrated wide and large wheels and cylinder support to facilitate moving around the workshop. Also includes two side cable handling supports
  • Wide voltage tolerance for stable welding output
  • Variable inductance control for better arc performance
  • IP23 use anywhere, for field and workshop applications
