PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

MinarcMig Evo 200 is an easy-to-use MIG/MAG welding machine suitable for professional
industry, site and repair welding. Before use or doing any maintenance work on the machine,
read the operating manual and keep it for further reference.
MinarcMig Evo tolerates input voltage fluctuation and is suitable for work on sites using
power generators and use with long power cables. The power source utilises PFC technology,
ensuring optimum usage on single phase power supplies. The IGBT inverter design delivers
reliable arc ignition and welding performance, with all filler wire types.
Welding and earth return cables are supplied in the delivery package, including gun, earth
clamp and connections.

1.2.1 Properties

The welding machine is small, efficient and light. It is easy to carry with the handle or shoulder
strap. It is suitable for a wide range of welding applications, and the possibility to use long
power extension cables makes it easy to use in worksite conditions. It is also suitable for use
with power generators.
The machine has both an automatic and manual operation mode. In the automatic mode,
you must first select the filler wire material after which the welding voltage and wire feed
speed can be adjusted with one control knob, according to the thickness of the sheet to be
welded. Thus, selecting the right parameters is easy. In automatic mode, the length of the arc,
or welding heat, is trimmed with another control. In manual mode, the welding voltage and
wire feed speed are adjusted separately with their own controls. The use of the machine is
aided with an LCD display which indicates the welding current, welding voltage and wire feed
speed.
You can use steel (solid or cored wire), stainless steel, aluminium and CuSi as filler wire in the
machine. The steel wire can be 0.6 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm or 1.0 mm thick, but the machine's
welding properties are optimum with a steel wire of 0.8 mm diameter. The stainless steel wire
