The Edon TB400 is an inverter-based MMA (Manual Metal Arc) or "stick" welding machine. Like other welders in the Edon line, it is known for being a compact, portable, and relatively affordable option for both home use and light-duty professional welding.
Key Features and Specifications
It's important to note that specifications can vary slightly between different distributors or regional models. However, the general characteristics of the Edon TB400 are as follows:
Welding Process: Primarily a stick welder (MMA/ARC), it is designed for use with coated electrodes.
Technology: It uses inverter technology, often with IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors), which makes it much more efficient, lightweight, and smaller than older, transformer-based welders.
Input Voltage: It typically operates on a single-phase AC 220V power supply, making it compatible with standard household power outlets in many countries.
Output Current: The welding current is adjustable, with a common range of 20 to 160 amps. While some listings may brand it with "400" in the model name, it's crucial to look at the actual rated output current. A 400-amp output is generally found on much larger, three-phase, industrial-grade welders. The "400" in the model name is more of a marketing designation than an indicator of true amperage.
