What’s New in Our New RAZOR MULTI 175 & 220
June 1, 2023
Our next-generation MIG welders have taken all the best parts of the previous machines, including gas and gasless capabilities and spool gun compatibility, and improved on them. On top of all that, these machines now include several new features to further enhance your welding experience.
HD Backlit Interface
The most apparent change to these machines is the brand-new, upgraded interface. They now come with a large HD backlit interface. The clear colour screen is bright and easy to read, so navigating the screen and settings is much easier, especially in dark work environments and low light conditions.
Multi-Process Welding
These machines are no longer just MIG/STICK machines! Both the RAZOR MULTI 175 and 220 are now able to DC TIG weld, so you can now TIG weld mild and stainless steels as well as MIG weld them. You won’t have to swap between different machines anymore, saving valuable time and effort without sacrificing quality.
Trigger Controlled DC Lift Arc TIG
Now multi-process machines, the 175 and 220 are both capable of DC TIG welding. The Trigger Controlled DC Lift Arc means you can easily ignite your arc by tapping the tungsten to the workpiece and then lifting it up.
Lift Arc TIG is a much less aggressive process than traditional scratch start TIG, and so it reduces tungsten and workpiece contamination. Our Lift Arc technology also ensures that your tungsten tip won’t stick to the workpiece, preventing costly tip breakages.
The trigger control lets you start your gas flow with the press of a button rather than having to twist open a valve on your torch.
Synergic MIG Programs
On top of now being 3-in-1 machines, we’ve also loaded these two welders full of synergic programs, so setting up for a weld has never been easier. Simply set your wire type, gas, wire size, and material thickness, and the machine will choose the optimal settings for your weld.
You can then manually adjust these settings up or down if they need a bit of tweaking to produce the perfect weld for your conditions.
Digital Control MIG Torch
Adding our brand-new digital control MIG torch with these machines means you can now adjust your settings from the torch itself. Remove the hassle of moving back and forth between your machine and the weld. Easily fine-tune your amps and voltage correction in synergic modes and your voltage and wire feed speed in manual MIG modes.
Geared Wire Drive
Our RAZOR MULTI 175 and 220 now both come with a geared wire drive system. The added pushing power of a geared wire drive improves the feeding, so you get a more efficient, consistent, and smooth wire-feeding experience, even when using a longer torch.
Foot Control Ready
With the foot pedal connection, you can take total control of your TIG welds. The foot pedal is the perfect accessory while TIG welding, letting you easily adjust your amperage as you weld. You won’t have to speed up, slow down, or worry about burning through or not getting enough penetration while welding. The foot control means you can adjust your heat to suit your weld every time.
Advanced MMA Features
As multi-process welders, our new RAZOR MULTI 175 and 220 can also stick weld, a process which we’ve now packed with a range of advanced MMA features as well.
We’ve added an adjustable hot start designed to help with striking an arc. The hot start temporarily boosts the output current at the start, making striking an arc, even with difficult electrodes, much easier. You get smoother arc starts, improving the quality of your weld.
We’ve also added adjustable arc force, which adjusts the current (and, therefore, the heat) based on the length of the arc. When the arc becomes shorter, the current increases to keep it stable and stop the electrode from sticking. When the arc becomes longer, the current will decrease. The level of this response is what’s adjustable on the machine.
The adjustable arc force allows you to fine-tune your arc and improve your weld’s quality and consistency, especially in tight corners or when welding overhead or vertically.
The machine also now comes with built-in anti-stick, a feature that’s designed to keep you from ever sticking an electrode again, whether you’re at the start of a weld, halfway through or about to end one.
Smart Fan
We’ve introduced an improved cooling system in this machine, and the new smart fan only turns on when the machine needs it, diminishing the noise in your work environment. It also reduces the number of contaminants and dust that get pulled into the machine, increasing the reliability and durability of the machine.
