Hi Guys, I'm looking to treat myself to a new MIG soon, and I have been thinking about the Kemppi MiniArcMig Evo. Anyone had/used one of these?
I want something around 200/220 A, single phase, with a good duty cycle Any suggestions for similar machines to look at? Some sort of ESAB perhaps? Lorch?
I would seriously consider a more traditional transformer style, but it needs to be a goodun! With copper windings! Portamig is an option, as I know they have a good reputation. Minimum current is not an issue for me, as I still have my trusty old ESAB Compact 125 for thin stuff, but TBH I rarely use it much these days.
So what does the panel think? New or second hand, not really fussy, but a maximum of about a grand (ish).
Any ideas?
