Does it use regular shielding gas?

Yes. 100% nitrogen for steel and stainless, 100% argon for aluminum.

Is it really that easy to learn?

Yes. Beginners can lay good welds after 1–2 hours of training and reach proficiency in 1–2 weeks. On-site training from our team is available, priced by location.

What are the consumables?

Protective windows, copper nozzles, focus lenses, and wire feeder nozzles and liners. The Starter Kit covers about 6 months of normal use.

Is it really that fast?

Up to 10x faster than TIG on steel, according to THEO. Actual speed depends on material, thickness and joint. Book a demo and see it on your parts.
