Lincoln Electric (Cleveland, OH) adds the 260MPX, which delivers 260 amps, to its family of Ranger welder/generators. The Ranger 260MPX does more with less, with a footprint that’s up to 20% smaller than other welder/generators in its class. It’s also 25% lighter and 31% smaller by volume. The unit’s compact size makes it easier to maneuver around the jobsite, creates more space for additional tools, and makes overall operations more streamlined. It’s also 60% quieter than other machines in its class, which promotes worker safety and comfort on the jobsite.
In addition to its compact dimensions, the unit is designed with an easy-to-use digital interface. Simple push-and-turn controls give the operator immediate access to advanced technology. Ready.Set.Weld, Chopper Technology, and CrossLinc technology combine to enable quick setup and improved arc control at every stage of the welding process from anywhere on the jobsite.
Maintenance alerts track the status of engine functions and provide real-time data and notifications when service is required. The easily accessible maintenance screen clearly displays hours remaining. Settings can be customized to issue alerts at preferred intervals, eliminating the need for operators to conduct maintenance-related calculating and scheduling.
With 9.5kW of clean AC generator power, the machine accommodates a variety of auxiliary tools and equipment. You can even operate sensitive electronics, like laptops, without concern, thanks to a total harmonic distortion level of 5%. And you can get more done faster by running generator power – while welding – without interruption.
