TESTING MIG CHART SETTINGS PRIMEWELD MTS200

PRIMEWELD MTS 200 - TESTING MIG WELDING SETTINGS

I just added the primeweld mts200 to the store here and it is a beast of a mig welder.

…. and I have around 6 more videos using it that you will seen very soon right here.  

The mts200 also comes with an air cooled CK tig torch with a valve since it also does lift arc TIG and Stick.

And to introduce this welder, we are adding a free basic stubby gas lens kit with your order.

The basic stubby kit will work  great with the CK  tig torch that comes with the welder.  Deadline to get the free basic stubby kit is 8-31-24.

(Videos coming soon using the lift arc TIG function)

 

For this video I tested the recommended settings on the mig chart for the primeweld mts200. 

Using mig chart recommended settings can save you some time compared to just guessing, but for different positions and joint types, some fine tuning is needed for the best arc. 

When I reached 1/4" thickness, the settings definitely needed some tweaking. 

So instead of the recommended setting of 22.5 volts and 472 ipm using .035" wire, I used 20 volts and 310 inches per minute wire speed and it was a lot smoother arc and still got good penetration as shown on the cut and etch test toward the end of the video.

 

PS.  Dont forget about the free basic stubby gas lens kit when you order the primeweld mts200.  Deadline to get the free basic stubby kit is 8-31-24.

Love the video I purchased the prime weld about 6 months ago great little machine. I’ve been running 030 wire and found I like my settings better than the chart on anything over 1/8 inch mine came with a spool gun included hope you touch on it cause I’m batting zero getting it to run a halfway decent beed
