Welding processes and corresponding equipment: MIG/MAG welding (Metal Inert Gas / Metal Active Gas, also known as GMAW — Gas Metal Arc Welding) — the most widely used production welding process; semi-automatic or robotic; uses continuous consumable wire electrode fed through the torch; MIG (inert gas — argon or argon/helium mix) for aluminium, stainless, and reactive metals; MAG (active gas — CO2 or Ar/CO2 mix) for mild and low-alloy steel; key specs: output current range (A), duty cycle (%), wire diameter range (mm), voltage control (steps or continuous), and synergic programme database; TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas, GTAW — Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) — non-consumable tungsten electrode with separate filler rod; highest weld quality and cosmetic appearance; used for stainless steel, aluminium (AC TIG), titanium, and thin sheet; DC or AC (for aluminium oxide removal) output; key specs: HF arc start, pulse capability, AC frequency and balance control; plasma cutting — ionised gas plasma jet cuts metal at high speed; competitive with fiber laser for 3–30mm mild and stainless steel; lower capital cost than laser; key specs: input power (kW), cutting thickness (mm), cutting speed (m/min), and consumable life; submerged arc welding (SAW) — high-deposition-rate welding under flux blanket; used for structural steel fabrication (pressure vessels, shipbuilding, bridge girders, piling); robotic welding systems — integration of MIG, TIG, or laser welding with industrial robots for automated production; and laser welding machines — fiber laser beam for high-speed, low-distortion joining of thin sheet metal and precision assemblies. Safety standards: EN ISO 25980 (welding screen transparency), EN 60974 (arc welding equipment — the key European safety standard for welding power sources), and EN 169 (welding filter shade selection).
Frequently asked questions
What is EN 60974 and is CE marking required for welding machines?
EN 60974-1 (IEC 60974-1 internationally) is the principal safety standard for arc welding equipment — covering electrical safety, thermal protection, duty cycle ratings, and electromagnetic compatibility requirements for welding power sources. CE marking is required for welding equipment placed on the EU market under the Low Voltage Directive (LVD, 2014/35/EU) and the EMC Directive (2014/30/EU). The Machinery Directive applies to automated welding cells and robotic welding systems. For welding power sources (standalone MIG, TIG, plasma units), the LVD/EMC directives are the primary applicable directives. Buyers should request the Declaration of Conformity citing EN 60974-1, EN 60974-3 (arc welding torches), and EN 60974-10 (EMC requirements) for any welding equipment purchased for EU deployment. Chinese welding equipment manufacturers Riland, Jasic, and OTC produce CE-marked products for export markets — verify by reviewing the DoC and requesting the EMC/LVD test report.
What is a typical price range for wholesale welding machines from China?
Indicative wholesale prices for welding equipment from Chinese manufacturers: MIG/MAG inverter welder (200A, single-phase): USD 300–600. MIG/MAG synergic welder (350A, 3-phase, Riland or Jasic): USD 600–1,500. TIG inverter AC/DC welder (200A, aluminium capable): USD 500–1,200. Plasma cutter (60A, 25mm mild steel): USD 800–2,000. Submerged arc welding head (1,200A, welding tractor): USD 5,000–15,000. Robotic MIG welding cell (Fanuc or KUKA robot, complete cell): USD 80,000–250,000. Comparable Lincoln Electric, ESAB, or Fronius machines are typically 2–5× the cost of Chinese equivalents for standard processes. For critical structural, pressure vessel, and aerospace welding where documentation and traceability are mandatory, Tier 1 Western brands provide superior process monitoring and weld parameter recording capabilities.
