ESAB Rebel 3-phase welders: power, performance and mobility

ESAB Welding & Cutting Products have unveiled their Rebel EMP 255ic and Rebel EMP 320ic multi-process welders for MIG/MAG, DC MMA and TIG welding. Both units weigh 31.4kg and use 400V +-10 per cent 3-phase supply voltage. Rebel EMP 320ic provides a rated output of 320A/30V at 40 per cent duty cycle and maximum output of 350A/34V, making it more than capable of running both solid and flux cored wires in heavy industrial applications. Rebel EMP 255ic provides a rated output of 255A/26.8V at 40 per cent duty cycle and maximum output of 300A/34V, well suited for industrial applications requiring 1.0 to 1.2mm wires.
