What it welds
The VEVOR MIG-200AU MIG Welder is a MIG / gas with a maker-stated output of up to 200 amps on 110 or 220-volt input.
Miller's starting rule, 1 amp for each 0.001 inch of steel, puts 200 amps at roughly 0.200 in of steel in one pass; thicker work means bevels and more passes. Run the amperage selector.
The listing doesn't give a duty cycle with its amperage, which makes long beads hard to plan; the rating plate or manual should state it. Why it matters.
Processes, per the maker: MIG, gas MIG, MMA. Most multi-process machines' TIG is DC lift-arc, so no aluminium unless AC is stated. Choosing a process.
It runs solid wire under shielding gas (gasless) for the cleanest wire-feed welds; most machines like it also run flux-core wire outdoors.
Running on 120 or 240 volts, it trades output for convenience on the lower input. What input voltage changes.
Use a lens of at least OSHA's minimum shade for the current: shade 10 or darker for typical MIG work here. Shade chart.
Also on the listing: dimensions of 16.93 x 7.09 x 12.6 inches and a weight of 29.3 lb.
Is it the right machine for the job?
Buy it for
- Clean steel welds indoors
- Steel to about 0.200 in per pass
Skip it for
- Steel much past 0.200 in in one pass
What it does well, where it falls short
Does well
- Up to 200 A output
- Dual-voltage input
- Pulse: pulse welding
Falls short
- Duty cycle not stated with amps
Power and setup notes
- Ratings are the maker's own, stated under the maker's conditions. Follow the manual, wear eye protection of at least OSHA's minimum shade, keep combustibles away, ventilate, and have a licensed electrician install new circuits.
