TELWIN FORCE 145 inverter welder: mobile MMA power, ready to work.
The TELWIN FORCE 145 is a compact and at the same time powerful MMA inverter welder that will change the way you approach welding with covered electrodes. Built by the Italian specialists at TELWIN, this machine answers the needs of professionals who want reliable, light equipment for assembly and service work on site, and of demanding hobby users who care about the quality and the precision of their joints. Heavy, awkward transformers stay in the past; the FORCE 145 is modern welding technology in an ergonomic housing, delivered in a practical carry case.
Freedom of movement, quick changes between workstations, equipment you can take to a job outside the shop: the TELWIN FORCE 145 makes all of that possible thanks to its low weight and compact dimensions. Mobility is not the whole story. At the heart of this welder is advanced inverter technology that gives a stable and smooth welding arc and makes striking and guiding the electrode easier, also in difficult conditions. Whether you weld carbon steel, stainless steel or cast iron, the FORCE 145 delivers the right current characteristic, keeps spatter low and gives welds of very good quality.
The FORCE 145 carries the key functions that support the welding process: Arc Force (dynamic control of the arc current), Hot Start (easier striking of the electrode) and Anti-Stick (prevents the electrode sticking). These systems make work easier for less experienced users and let professionals reach better results faster. Additional protections, thermostatic, overvoltage, undervoltage and overload, guard the machine against damage and keep it running long and without failures, also when it is fed from a power generator.
The TELWIN FORCE 145 230V ACX PLASTIC CARRY CASE is a complete solution ready for immediate use. The solid plastic case makes transport easier and protects the welder and the accessories against mechanical damage and dirt. Invest in the reliability, precision and working comfort that carry the TELWIN name. This is a tool that will quickly become a fixed part of your workshop or your mobile work, raising the quality of your projects.
What the TELWIN FORCE 145 230V ACX PLASTIC CARRY CASE can do
Detailed information
The TELWIN FORCE 145 was designed for the simplest possible operation, with no compromise on welding quality. A clear front panel with stepless adjustment of the welding current allows quick and precise setting of the parameters to the type and thickness of the material and to the electrode in use. There are no complicated menus or settings, so even people starting out with MMA welding feel confident from the first time they switch the machine on.
For a professional this means saved time: the machine is ready to work almost as soon as it is plugged in. The Hot Start, Arc Force and Anti-Stick functions work automatically, supporting the welder and optimising the process without any manual work in advanced settings. It is a good solution for quick repairs, assembly work or projects where efficiency and reliability decide.
Detailed information
The TELWIN FORCE 145 is not only a workshop welder. Its ability to run from power generators (of suitable output, min. 5 kW) and its tolerance to supply voltage fluctuations (±15%) make it a valuable tool for work on site, on building sites, in agriculture and anywhere access to a stable power source is limited. The option to weld with different types of covered electrodes, rutile, basic, stainless or cast iron, in diameters from 1.6 to 3.2 mm (and even 4.0 mm for some types) opens a broad field of applications.
Whether you need to make light steel structures, repair machine parts, join stainless steel details or carry out an artistic project, the FORCE 145 gives you the power and the precision required. Compact dimensions and low weight allow easy handling and work in places with limited access, where larger machines would be impractical. It is a true workhorse for mobile professionals and ambitious DIY users.
Detailed information
TELWIN is a brand with a long tradition, known worldwide for producing welding machines of high quality. The FORCE 145 is a good example, joining modern technology with solid workmanship. Built in protections such as thermostatic, overvoltage, undervoltage and overload actively guard the machine against damage, which translates into a long and trouble free service life. Indicator lights on the front panel inform the user about the operating state of the machine and about any protection that has tripped.
Protection class IP21 means resistance to accidental contact with live parts and to vertically falling drops of water, which adds to safety in typical workshop conditions. Choosing the TELWIN FORCE 145 means investing not only in an efficient tool but also in peace of mind, knowing that you work with equipment designed with safety and durability in view, which matters for professional use and for hobby projects alike.

Key features and benefits
- Advanced inverter technology: at the heart of the machine is a modern inverter circuit that converts mains current into high frequency welding current. This gives much lower weight and smaller dimensions than traditional transformer welders, and above all a stable, smooth welding arc with precise control of the process. For the welder it means easier striking of the electrode, less spatter, deeper fusion and the option to weld with many types of electrode, including rutile, basic, stainless and cast iron, which translates into better weld quality and varied use.
- HOT START system: this function automatically raises the welding current at the very start of the process, at the moment the arc is struck. The electrode does not stick to the material and the arc lights quickly and steadily, even with cold or damp electrodes or on rusty surfaces. A professional will value the saved time, the end of trouble with a difficult start and a cleaner beginning of the bead with no risk of a faulty joint at the start.
- ARC FORCE dynamic arc control: this system monitors the arc voltage in real time and adjusts the current automatically to stop the arc going out when the arc length shortens, for example when the electrode comes too close to the material. It gives smooth transfer of electrode material into the weld pool, makes welding in forced positions easier and allows work with various electrode types, including the ones that are harder to guide. The result is a more uniform bead, better fusion and more control over the process, which is decisive for strong and good looking joints.
- ANTI-STICK system against electrode sticking: if a short circuit occurs and the electrode sticks to the workpiece, the Anti-Stick function immediately reduces the welding current to a minimum value. The electrode can be freed easily without damage to its core and without risk to the electrode holder or to the welder itself. For the user this means lower material losses, longer life of electrodes and equipment and safer work, with no need to tear a stuck electrode away by force.
- Full set of machine protections: the TELWIN FORCE 145 carries a series of protections that guard the key components of the welder. They include thermostatic protection (against overheating), overvoltage protection (against voltage spikes in the mains), undervoltage protection (for steady operation when the voltage drops) and overload protection. The welder also tolerates supply voltage fluctuations within +/- 15%, which makes it well suited to work with power generators. All of this translates into high reliability, a long service life and safe use even in hard working conditions.
- Mobility and compact construction: the welder itself weighs about 2.8 kg and comes in a sturdy carry case, so the FORCE 145 is easy to take anywhere. Its small dimensions make storage and transport simple and make it a good choice for work on site, at height, in tight spaces and for anyone who needs dependable equipment ready to go at any moment. This matters for service teams, fitters and hobby users who value order and easy carrying of their equipment.
