The ESAB Aristo MIG 400 is an inverter MIG/MAG power source with the MA6 panel, pulse and synergy. The maker gives 400 A at a 60% cycle and 300 A at a 100% cycle. The supply is 400 V.
What this machine is for
A current of 300 A in continuous work is enough for long welds in structural steel and for multi run fills, and 400 A you take on thicker sections and with a high output wire. That is a range typical for a fabrication workshop and for series production.
The MA6 panel runs synergic welding with built in programs, so once you pick the wire, the gas and the diameter the machine sets the parameters and you correct them with the knob. Pulse orders the metal transfer and cuts spatter, which matters on stainless steel and on aluminium.
Features and equipment
- Inverter power source: a fast answer to changes in the arc and a steady penetration.
- MA6 panel with built in programs: ready settings for the material, the gas and the wire diameter.
- Synergy: you pick the material and the wire, the controller sets the rest.
- Pulsed welding: less spatter and less heat in the joint.

What to watch out for
The supply is 400 V from a power socket. The product card gives gas cooling, while the maker description does not say what kind, so confirm the configuration before you buy. The description does not list a wire feeder, a torch or an earth cable, so agree the content of the set and the set of rolls with us in advance. The weight is not given, so plan transport after you have seen the unit. When you pick the parameters stay with the duty cycle: 400 A at 60% and 300 A at 100%.
How we sell used machines
This unit was checked in our service workshop in Krotoszyn with measurements to PN-EN 60974-4 and a load test. The price includes the first year of the basic service package: an inspection with cleaning of the machine and a validation measurement. Further years can be added. We ship across the European Union, collection in person by appointment.
