8mm what??? Steel, stainless, aluminuminuminum? MIG? TIG? Stick?
At the moment, I wouldn’t buy any welded other than a unimig, unless you are spending big $$$ and buying a Fronius and are willing to wait. Yes I know exactly what I’m taking about.
The Unimig 320amp AC/DC water cooled TIG will weld anything up to and including 20mm aluminium. I have done it. The only let down is it doesn’t go over 99 hertz, 200hz and it would be a Ferrari! Also at over 290 amps, expect to go through ceramic cups, I MELTED boxes of them!!!!
The 200 razor in TIG / Stick,is a full function machine and will easily weld 10mm anything, if you can weld.
MIG, same same, buy a 200 amp MIG and you will weld any STEEL you want, but don’t try and weld Aluminium with it, because you won’t.
If you want to MIG weld Aluminium, buy a Fronius TPS 320i, and expect to spend $8k and to wait as there is hardly any stock in the country.
I’m not a sales rep for a welding company anymore, I’m just the local postie!
