Visar 1200 Features

The Visar 1200 combines high welding output with modern control technology, making it suitable for a wide range of stud welding applications where versatility and process control are essential.

1,200 Amp Welding Capacity

Delivers up to 1,200 amps of welding current for handling larger diameter studs and thicker base materials commonly found in structural and industrial fabrication.

Dual Process Welding Capability

Supports both drawn arc and short-cycle stud welding, allowing operators to work across a broader range of stud diameters and material thicknesses with a single power source.

Stepless Parameter Adjustment

Welding current and welding time can be adjusted continuously, providing precise control for optimizing weld settings across different applications.

High-Speed Production Performance

Capable of welding up to 40 studs per minute on smaller diameters, helping improve throughput in production and fabrication environments.

Industrial-Grade Cooling System

A temperature-controlled cooling fan automatically regulates operating temperature to maintain consistent performance during extended welding cycles.

Rugged Compact Design

The compact steel housing is built for industrial use while maintaining a manageable footprint, making the unit suitable for both shop floors and field fabrication work.
