Whether you&#;re a
professional welder with industry experience or a weekend warrior with a
welding hobby, the first thing you need is a welder.

There are a few
factors that you should consider before diving into buying a machine. These
include the material, the material thickness, the weld type (MIG, TIG or
stick), the power, and, most importantly, your budget.
The material you want to weld, and its thickness, will determine the welding process that will work best for you, especially as not every welder can do every material.

How thick is the material you plan to weld?
The output of your welder will determine the material thickness you will be able to weld.

If you want a more in-depth look at the differences between these welding types, you can check out our MIG vs TIG vs STICK blog.
Now you should have a decent idea of which type of welding you think will work best for your needs; we can start narrowing the options even more.
What power points are available to you?
The power you can plug into is going to dictate the range of machines you can pick from. Every machine needs to be connected to a power source (otherwise, there&#;s no electric circuit).
If you&#;re planning on welding in your spare time on weekends at home, it&#;s likely you&#;ve only got standard 10A domestic outlets available to you. If that&#;s the case, you&#;re only going to be able to get a machine that has a 10A plug.
Another
thing to keep in mind is that a 10A plug will usually support up to 180 amps,
and a 15A plug will usually support up to 200 amps. Anything over that (like
the 250+ amp machines) will require an authorised electrician to install a plug
(20A or 32A) for you by Australian law.
How long do you want to weld for?
There&#;s one
main thing on a welder that will determine how long you&#;re going to be able to use
it without stopping&#;the duty cycle. A welder&#;s duty cycle should always be
included in the product&#;s specifications, as this is an essential feature on
every machine.
If you were
to look at the Viper 185 MIG/TIG/STICK welder&#;s duty cycle, it would look like
this: 10% @ 180A. It doesn&#;t look like much, but what this means is that you
can use the welder on its max amperage (180A) for a full minute straight before
it overheats.
The duty
cycle is measured in 10-minute increments, so if you have a 10% duty cycle at
max amps, you&#;ll have 1 minute of constant welding and then 9 minutes of cooldown
time.
Now, you&#;re probably thinking, &#;One minute? That sounds terrible!&#; Three things make this an excellent duty cycle. The first and most impressive is that every UNIMIG machine is tested at an outside temperature of 40° Celsius.
The welder will run for a full minute on max amps in 40°C before it overheats and the thermal overload kicks in. It also means that if you&#;re welding in a room that&#;s only 20°C, your welder&#;s going to last longer than what&#;s stated on the technical sheet.
Not every
manufacturer discloses the temperatures that they test their machines at, so
you run the risk of getting a duty cycle that might be slightly exaggerated,
especially if they&#;re testing them in their own controlled environments.
The second
reason that a 10% duty cycle isn&#;t as bad as you think is that one minute is a
really long time. A straight one minute of welding is usually a long weld joint,
and you&#;ll likely have finished the weld or pulled away to reposition before
the minute is up.
The third
reason is that most welders don&#;t need to be set to their max amperage (in some
cases, it&#;ll blast through your weld). If you&#;re welding on or with thinner
materials, your machine is probably going to be set in a mid-range amperage, so
the welder will last for longer on lower amps.
VIPER vs RAZOR
VIPER
machines are designed for home DIY projects and weekend hobbyists, but they&#;re
also great for any offsite work. The VIPER machines are lightweight, portable,
and with a 10A plug, they&#;ll go just about anywhere.
They&#;re
built to be user-friendly, making setting up and getting started as quick and
easy as possible. The VIPER machines come with helpful setup guides on their
inside panel so that no matter what level welder you are, you can get the
machine running without issues.
On the
other hand, RAZOR machines are made to suit a range of professional and
industrial needs. They&#;re usually equipped with a 15A plug, but some of the
really high amperage machines require specialised plug sockets. The bigger
plugs mean that most of the RAZOR range can do a much higher max amp output
than the VIPERs.
Our RAZOR
machines also come with a full 3-year or 5-year warranty, compared to the 1- to
3-year warranties available on the VIPERs.
If you get a VIPER or a RAZOR, you can get an extra six-month warranty if you register your machine online.
What kind of budget do you have?
Your budget is going to be a crucial factor when it comes to picking a welding machine. Only you know how much you have to spend, but what you do need to keep in mind is that it isn&#;t just the machine you&#;re going to need.
Regardless of whether you&#;ve decided to MIG, TIG or stick weld, you&#;re going to need a few extras:
- Filler metals
- Consumables (these need to match your wire
sizes which in turn need to match your material size)
- Gas tanks (if needed)
You could buy a TIG
machine and decide later on that the torch it came with is getting too hot too
fast, and you want to try a water-cooled one instead.
Getting a cheap welder
can be tempting, but if you save in cost, you&#;re going to sacrifice so much for
it. The performance might not be as good, the parts will probably wear out
faster, and if it needs servicing or troubleshooting, you could be out of luck.
UNIMIG machines have decades of professional tried and tested technologies under their belts. You&#;ll be buying from a top-tier, Aussie-owned family business with local support centres across the country. Just something to think about before you go for that import brand welder that&#;s only going to save you upfront, but there&#;s a chance you&#;ll pay for it in the future.
Synergic Control
Generally
speaking, synergic means combining several systems to make one. When it comes
to welding, this means that the machine is pre-programmed with a set of
parameters that allow it to select the best settings for you automatically.
The
programs for UNIMIG&#;s synergic controlled machines were made in collaboration
with an expert welder to ensure that their parameters are going to produce a
good weld. There&#;s no guesswork involved, and you&#;ve usually only got one knob
to play around with.
Depending
on the machine, you&#;ll need to input the material type, filler type, filler
size, gas type and the parent metal thickness. Once you&#;ve input these, it will
automatically decide your welding parameters for you, and you can start welding
straight away.
Synergic
welders are an excellent choice for beginners and professionals alike, as you
won&#;t need to spend any time messing with the settings to get the weld right. Some
of these machines will come with the option to switch to a manual mode, so you
can input your own preferred settings instead.
Even if you
are using a synergic machine, for the most part, these will let you alter the
chosen settings for minor adjustments. The synergically chosen settings might
be slightly off for your particular job, so instead of having to set everything
manually to get it right, you can still adjust your voltage, wire feed speed or
amperage to suit.

The
RAZOR MULTI 230 AC/DC is one of our most advanced professional machines. It&#;s
a 4-in-1 machine which means it can do every kind of welding there is. MIG,
MMA, DC TIG, and, finally, AC TIG. That means you can now TIG weld aluminium on
a MIG machine, making it a true all-process machine.
Plus, the machine does high-frequency
TIG, whether you&#;re in AC or DC. That means you have more control when starting
or stopping the arc, and reduce the risk of contaminating the tungsten or the
weld, so you&#;ll have no issues when it comes to aluminium.
You get
complete control over your TIG welds. Both the AC & DC TIG welding modes
come with the full weld cycle. You can adjust all the parameters, like pre- and
post-flow, up and down slopes, as well as all things pulse.
It
also has a complete MIG weld cycle, including pre- and post-gas flow, arc
ignition speed and burnback. Plus, it comes with advanced MIG features, including hot or cold arc starts,
crater fill and inductance controls.
The 5&#; LCD
screen is bright and clear and makes scrolling through your parameters a breeze.
It comes preloaded with over 100+ MIG and TIG synergic programs, so setting up
for your weld has never been easier. Select your metal, wire size and type, and
gas, and the machine will do the rest. You can be set up in seconds whether
you&#;re MIG or TIG welding.
The MULTI 230 AC/DC comes packed with advanced TIG features like multiple AC waveforms, mixed arc AC/DC and all-new &#;Plus&#; programs. Adjust the characteristics of your AC arc, have your weld switch between AC and DC- currents as you go with the mixed arc AC/DC (giving you the best of both worlds in a single weld), or totally customise your TIG weld with the &#;Plus&#; programs.
The dual 10A
and 15A plug on this machine means you won&#;t be limited to where and when you
can use it. Whether you&#;re working on something in your garage or taking it to
job sites, you can plug in anywhere with the supplied adapter plug. It also
comes with dual gas inputs, so you can have a TIG and MIG gas bottle connected
at the same time.
The job
memory feature lets you save specific settings so you won&#;t have to re-enter
the same thing over and over. It&#;s spool gun compatible, so you can run
aluminium wire through the standard torch or a spool gun. The geared wire drive

DC TIG, and stick weld, so it can do almost everything. The large 5&#; LCD
touchscreen is bright and clear and makes navigating through the machine
settings a breeze.
As well as standard MIG, it
can also do single and double MIG welding. Pulse welding reduces the heat and minimises spatter
without compromising penetration, so it&#;s perfect for thin and soft materials
like aluminium.
A single pulse weld alternates between a peak current and a
background current. Double pulse welding works the same way but with a second
background current to add even more control over the arc.
There are plenty of benefits to pulse MIG welding, including a
reduced heat input, faster weld speed than TIG but with the same aesthetic appearance,
spatter-free welding for minimal cleanup, and great penetration (even with
lower heat).
This machine comes with over 100+ synergic MIG programs that cover
the standard, single and double pulse MIG processes, so regardless of the MIG
welding you want to do, you can be up and running in seconds.
As well as its pulse and synergic programs, it also comes packed
with other advanced MIG features like hot start, crater fill and inductance, so
you can completely customise your welds. Plus, get smooth and consistent wire
feeding with the 4 geared wire drive system.
The digital MIG torch that comes provided with the machine lets you
adjust your welding parameters right on the handpiece itself, so you don&#;t have
to go back and forth to the machine to make changes. You can also save your top
100 favourite or most common weld settings with the job memory menu.

high-frequency AC/DC TIG welder allows for both AC and DC currents, so you can
use it for aluminium as well as mild and stainless steels and customise the
entire weld cycle.
The
complete weld cycle means you have full control over your weld, from pre-gas to
post-gas. It also includes pulse functions in both DC and AC, so you can pulse
weld anything, and the torch modes let you weld the way you find most
comfortable.
With the high-frequency start, you can ignite
your arc with just the click of a button, and you can switch to a foot pedal
and adjust your amperage while you weld. It comes with the T3 TIG torch to give
you consumables with a longer life and a lighter torch.
The different AC waveforms let you adjust the
characteristics of your AC, letting you weld aluminium the way you want to. The
mixed arc AC/DC means that you can have a weld that switches between AC and DC-
currents as you go, giving you the best of both worlds in a single weld.
The job memory feature means that you can save
specific settings in it the same way you set the radio stations in your car.
You won&#;t have to re-enter the same thing over and over.
This welder has an optional water cooler, as
well as its own specially designed trolley that houses the water cooler. Unlike
other water coolers, it only turns on while you&#;re welding, so there&#;s no loud
background noise. The trolley and water cooler are sold separately.
The 320 AC/DC is a three-phase machine and will
need a 20A plug installed by a licensed electrician.

The VIPER ARC 140 is a super simple, super easy-to-use stick welder that you can use at home. This machine is almost totally stick-dedicated, and although you can attach a TIG torch to it, you&#;ll only be able to use the scratch start TIG process.
This machine is the most affordable unit in our range, so it&#;s a great place to start if you&#;re just starting out with stick welding.

These RAZOR stick machines are majority stick orientated; however, they do come with the option to swap to DC TIG mode. This switch means that you&#;ll be able to use the lift arc ignition instead of scratch start, which minimises the risk of tungsten contamination.
They&#;re easy to use with the one adjustable knob to choose your amps, and the large, clear HD interface makes them easy to read.
These machines include advanced features like built-in Anti-Stick technology, as well as adjustable Hot Start and Arc Force functionality which are designed to improve weld quality and ease of use.
The Hot Start feature increases the stability of your arc ignition and prevents a lack of fusion at the start of the weld. You won&#;t ever struggle to strike an arc again.
The Arc Force feature helps to keep the arc stabilised throughout the weld, by detecting any short circuits and increasing the peak current to prevent the arc from cutting out or the electrode from sticking.
The Anti Stick feature, which is always on, prevents your electrode from sticking to your workpiece. When the machine detects sticking, the current will shut off and unstick the electrode.
