Test Driving Everlast's Digital Analog 250EX TIG Welder - Kevin Caron

#WeldingTips #FabricationTips #KevinCaronArt From http://www.kevincaron.com - Artist Kevin Caron gives a tour of - and takes a test drive with - Everlast's old-fashioned / new-fashioned PowerTIG 250EX TIG welder .... Kevin Caron feels like he's gone back in time when looking at the panel of the Everlast PowerTIG 250EX. It's the "younger cousin" to Everlast's PowerTIG 255EXT. He says it's old-fashioned, but it's also quite new. The big difference between the 250EX and the 255EXT is that the 255EXT is an all digital machine - it has a touchpad. The 250EX is an analog digital machine in that the panel has knobs and a few pushbuttons, yet the electronics inside are digital. It has no touchscreen. This should appeal to welders used to analog machines. You don't have to page through menus and settings to get to what you're looking for. The panel is color coded. The 2T/4T torch trigger control knobs are green, with knobs for starting amps, ending amps, upslope and downslope, preflow and postflow. On the bottom, in blue, are the pulse controls: pulse frequency, pulse amps and pulse time on. In yellow are the AC frequency and cleaning controls. The arc force for the stick welder (arc welder) is a red knob. The 250EX also has a spot welder. In the center of the panel is a large red knob for main amperage control and a digital display. The first push button controls pulse (off, low, high), the second controls remote (2T / 4T pedal), the third one mode (AC or DC), and finally the button to select TIG high frequency start, TIG lift start or stick (arc). Kevin Caron says it's pretty old school and easy to get used to. He used it for about three weeks while creating a stainless steel sculpture, and it was pretty handy to be able to reach over, grab the knob you want, and tweak it one way or the other. Time to make some sparks! Kevin Caron had to adjust the amperage from 63 to 74 because the aluminum is sitting on his 1" thick steel workbench. Kevin Caron shows the welds, where he stopped and turned up the amperage, and how, in the second weld, the metal had gotten quite hot and flattened nicely before he blew through the aluminum. The machine was set on AC, 74 amps, with AC frequency set at about 85 herz. The balance was about 28%. The 250EX does not have the nine presets or the four waveforms for welding aluminum like the 255EXT has. The 255EXT, however, is about $2,500. The 250EX is $1,700. It has 250 amps of power, high speed pulse, low speed pulse, AC, DC, stick welding and a spot welder. Kevin Caron says it's going to be a good welder. It's time for him to go back to work, so you have time to subscribe to see more how-to videos, and to visit http://www.kevincaron.com to see Kevin Caron's wild sculptures. Well, you might stick around another moment to see that he wasn't just imagining that poke in the head .... "Inspired sculpture for public & private places." Artist Kevin Caron has been sculpting full time since 2006. You can see his more than 45 commissions in public and private places coast-to-coast and online at http://www.kevincaron.com.
