About the AlphaMIG 231ms
The AlphaMIG 231ms is a class-leading MIG/Stick welder design from
AHP. It is capable of MIG, Gasless Flux-cored, and DC Stick welding.
This combination of functions allows the user to cover a broad spec-
trum of welding needs. This unit’s design, combined with its out-
standing duty cycle, ends itself well to small fabrication and body
shops as well as production facilities.
The MIG process gives the user the ability to join nearly any metal.
Even aluminum can be joined with ease (1/8-5/16”). This unit can be
used with the optional spool gun which allows the user to weld Alumi-
num or the standard 10 ft. MIG gun equipped with the optional poly-
mer liner and optional U-groove drive rolls (best for .035 and .045”
wire).
The stick welding process provides excellent “on the job site” capabil-
ity for manufacturing and repair. This unit utilizes the latest in digi-
tally controlled IGBT inverter welding technology, while providing the
user with an easy-to-use interface. This unit will run most electrodes
up to 1/8” smoothly. When using electrodes with a cellulose flux base,
such as E6010 and E6011, the arc gap must be held tight.
The unit comes standard with the following items and features:
• Dual Voltage 120/240V operation capability
• 230A MIG, 180A DC Stick Output
• Spool Gun capable (Spool Gun is sold separately)
