Portable welder for railway applications
Arcon Welding

The Ironhorse At WorkCarrying on in the great railroad tradition from where it gets its name, the ARCON Ironhorse Stickweld is the first machine for the subway and Commuter train industry manufactured and marketed exclusively by a welding power supply company. This rugged 300 Amp Stick-welding machine will run off the "third-rail" DC voltage up to 800 Volts, and is ideally suited for train tunnels where AC power is not available. It also features a "safety yellow" fiberglass reinforced plastic case with extra thick skids on the bottom - the very features demanded by subway systems like the New York City Transit Authority for safety. The Ironhorse operating system is based on the same reliable technology that has been tested and proved in more than 100,000 welding machines around the world. This SCR inverter design allows for an industrial duty welding machine weighing only 80lbs/36kgs.
