Professional AC/DC Stick Welding
Unlike many TIG welders, the Typhoon 230 also provides advanced AC and DC Stick welding capability with adjustable Arc Force, Hot Start, Hot Start Duration, and excellent performance with E6010 and E7018 electrodes. This makes it equally at home in the fabrication shop or on demanding field repair projects.
Power Factor Correction (PFC)
The built-in Power Factor Correction system improves electrical efficiency, reduces power consumption, and makes the Typhoon 230 more tolerant of properly sized clean-power generators.
Who Is the Typhoon 230 Best For?
The Typhoon 230 is ideal for professional welders who want premium TIG performance without stepping into extremely high-output industrial machines. It excels in aerospace work, aluminum fabrication, motorsports, marine fabrication, industrial maintenance, and precision production welding where repeatability and complete arc control are essential.
