​ The TransPocket 180  operates off of 120V or 230V and features the exclusive Fronius Power Factor Correction technology. This allows operators to extend up to 300 ft of welding cable without affecting welding results or popping a breaker, making this machine even more portable.

The price per amp compared to other welding machines on the market makes this the machine the best bang for your buck. The pulse welding feature also makes welding out of position easier. In addition to the almost indestructible housing, the TransPocket also has numerous functions that simplify work for the user: HotStart, SoftStart and anti-stick provide support at the start of and during the welding process.

EASY TO USE 
  • Single knob operation 
  • Easy to read 7-segment Dot matrix display
  • Display is protected from any damage 
LIGHT & PORTABLE
  • Only 19.6 lbs 
  • Carrying strap
RUGGED DESIGN
  • High impact resistance 
  • Integrated dust filter extends the life of your investment
  • Raised feet prevent water penetration 
  • Designed for rough environments
Features
Anti-Stick
If a short circuit occurs that causes the electrode to stick during SMAWwelding, the power source is switched off immediately. This prevents the electrode from burning out and allows operators to remove the electrode from the work piece after making contact.

Preconfigured Welding Modes
The TransPocket 180 includes operating modes specficially for basic 7018 and cellulose 6010. The maximum electrode size is 5/32.

Soft Start
The SoftStart function ensures a stable arc at the start of welding and was specially developed for electrodes that are welded with a low welding current (basic electrodes).

Hotstart
To make the electrode easier to ignite, the current at the power source is increased for a fraction of a second during ignition. The HotStart function was specially developed for welding with rutile and Cel electrodes.

Time ShutDown Function
TSD switches off the power supply after a user specified time window, saving energy. 

Future Ready
The new device generation is ready for future innovation. New software versions, special processes, and system information can easily be applied as it becomes available. 

TAC
With TAC, one spot is all it takes for tacking, because the pulsed arc sets the two weld pools in motion, making them jump together in next to no time, to make one single weld-pool. The TAC function is also very useful when welding light-gauge sheets without filler metal.​


TIG COMFORT STOP
​
​At the end of the welding operation, the welding current is switched off automatically if a specific change is made to the arc length. This prevents the arc being unnecessarily elongated when the TIG welding torch is lifted off the workpiece to end the welding process. This results in a better weld result in the area of the end-crater, as the gas shield is maintained.
