Lightning MTS 275-P TIG/MIG Pulse with TIG Package

This version of the long running Lightning MTS 275 now includes Synergic Single Pulse Operation.  The Single Pulse programming of this welder is perfect for heat management on sensitive materials. It also reduces spatter and improves travel speed when used. Of course it still carries the same "fully loaded" MIG, AC/DC Pulse TIG and DC Stick features of previous versions.  But now, the new "Pulse" version offers truly about anything and everything most shops will every dream of.  It truly carries on the legacy.   This new unit features improved synergic function from previous models and simplified setup with more accurate settings than before. All settings are visible on a single page. No hidden menus, no popups to wade through.  With enhanced program memory, you can now name, save and lock up to 30 operator created programs.

The Lightning 275 Pulse features more output and better duty cycle than any of its current competitors. It packs a whopping punch with 275A of MIG output which making it perfect for Pulsed Spray, Short Circuit and Spray Arc MIG welding.  The revised design removes all hidden menus and bottle necks during setup.  All settings are visible on one page at one time, which helps the user to always know what to expect from the unit when welding. The improved PowerSET function allows the customer to enter basic operating parameters in MIG, TIG, or Stick mode, and automatically selects the proper Amps and Volts (where applicable) for the user.  This new unit also features a two types of  Flux-Cored operation with both gas shielded and gasless Flux-cored settings. Separate settings for Aluminum and Stainless are featured as well. As with the previous generations, it is still capable of operating on 120V if the unit needs to be carried to the jobsite. Of course, you'll have reduced output, but you will not suffer for lack of available duty cycle.  As far as operating duty cycle at full-tilt output, the machine delivers a industry leading 60% duty cycle in MIG, TIG  and Stick modes at maximum rated output. Stick mode output has improved to 220A as well and can weld with nearly any welding rod including E6010. Stepping down just a notch on power, in both MIG, and TIG modes at 200 Amps, you'll have a heavy industrial rating of 100% duty cycle.   For Stick, at 175 Amps, you'll have 100% Duty Cycle available to weld the full 10 minute cycle.  The unit also now includes push-pull gun capability which expands the job-site versatility of this welder. In the latest generation, the unit also has received a HV start system that has replaced the old HF point gap design for better starting efficiency.
