TELWIN FORCE 145 230V ACX + welding helmet: compact power and reliability for professional welds
The TELWIN FORCE 145 is an MMA inverter welder that rethinks mobile welding. Made by Italian specialists at TELWIN, this machine answers the needs of demanding professionals and ambitious hobby users who accept no compromises on quality, output and comfort at work. Heavy and awkward equipment stays on the shelf: the FORCE 145 combines welding current up to 130A with a very compact and light body and becomes a dependable partner in the workshop, on assembly work and in the field.
Picture an urgent job in a place that is hard to reach, where every minute and every kilogram of equipment counts. With the TELWIN FORCE 145 and the professional welding helmet supplied with it, you are ready to work at once. This is not just a welder, it is a complete work station that almost fits in one hand. Advanced inverter technology gives a stable arc, sure striking of the electrode and very little spatter, which means welds of the highest quality even on demanding materials such as stainless steel, cast iron or carbon steels.
Telwin solutions such as the built-in Arc Force, Hot Start and Anti-Stick functions support the welder at every stage of the job. Arc Force adjusts the welding current dynamically, keeps the arc from going out and makes it easy to guide. Hot Start helps strike the electrode by briefly raising the current at the start, and Anti-Stick protects the electrode from sticking to the material. All of this means that even less experienced users reach professional results quickly, and experts appreciate the precision and control the FORCE 145 offers.
The FORCE 145 230V ACX (Accessories) model is supplied together with a quality welding helmet, which makes the set ready to use straight out of the box. You do not have to worry about choosing matching accessories, Telwin has taken care of that. With the TELWIN FORCE 145 you invest in reliability, Italian precision and technology that takes your work a level higher. Weld without limits and see the difference that equipment built with care makes.
What the TELWIN FORCE 145 230V ACX + WELDING HELMET can do
Telwin inverter power: precision and output in a compact form
The inverter technology used in the TELWIN FORCE 145 is a real step forward in welding equipment. Unlike a traditional transformer welder, an inverter allows a large reduction in the mass and dimensions of the machine while keeping, and even raising, its output and precision. At the heart of the system is a microprocessor controlling current flow at high frequency, which gives a remarkably stable and smooth welding arc.
For a professional welder that means easier handling of the electrode, less spatter and deeper penetration, and therefore welds of good quality and strength. Arc stability is decisive, above all when working with difficult materials or in demanding positions. Inverter technology is also far more economical with energy, which means lower running costs and less load on the mains. The TELWIN FORCE 145 proves that strong welding power does not have to come in a large housing.
Intelligent arc support systems: Arc Force, Hot Start, Anti-Stick
The TELWIN FORCE 145 has functions that make the welding process more intuitive, more effective and safer. The Arc Force system (arc dynamics) regulates the welding current automatically according to the length of the arc. When the arc gets shorter, for example as the electrode comes closer to the material, the system raises the current, stops it from fading and helps the metal droplets transfer. Welding stays smooth and the weld stays even.
The Hot Start function delivers a pulse of higher current at the moment the electrode is struck. That is a real help, above all with electrodes that are hard to ignite, or on cold or dirty surfaces. With Hot Start the arc lights immediately and reliably every time. The Anti-Stick system keeps the electrode from sticking to the material being welded. In a short circuit the current is cut automatically, so the electrode comes free easily without damage and without the welder overheating. The three functions work together and raise the comfort of the work noticeably, along with the quality of the joints.
Mobility and reliability: a partner in every situation
The TELWIN FORCE 145 was designed for professionals who put mobility and reliability first. Its low weight (approx. 3.57 kg) and compact dimensions make it remarkably easy to carry and store. It fits in a car boot, on a workshop shelf or in a tool box. A sound answer for welders working at height, in tight spaces or changing job sites often.
Despite the small size, the FORCE 145 is solidly built and resistant to hard working conditions, which the IP21 protection rating confirms. Built-in thermal, overvoltage and undervoltage protection shields the key components of the welder from damage and keeps it running for a long time without faults. Supply from a generator (minimum 5 kW) adds to its flexibility and allows work in places with no mains connection. This is a tool you can rely on in every situation.
The complete ACX set: safety and readiness from the first minute
Choosing the TELWIN FORCE 145 in the ACX (Accessories) version, you get not only a good welder but a complete starter set that lets you begin work at once and in full safety. The key part of that set is a quality automatic welding helmet. It gives the eyes and face proper protection against UV/IR radiation and spatter, and adjusts the shade of the filter automatically to the intensity of the welding arc.
Besides the helmet, the set also includes welding cables, an electrode holder and an earth clamp, made of materials that give good conductivity and durability. You do not have to spend time and money matching compatible accessories. Telwin has seen to that so you can focus on what matters most, precise and effective welding. The ACX set is an investment in comfort and safety and in being ready for your projects straight away.

Key features and benefits
- Advanced inverter technology: At the heart of the welder is a modern inverter module that gives a stable and concentrated welding arc even when mains voltage fluctuates. That means deeper penetration, less spatter and excellent weld quality. For you it means easier welding, less finishing work and savings on material and electricity (up to 30% against transformer machines).
- Intelligent functions that support welding (Arc Force, Hot Start, Anti-Stick):
- Arc Force: Raises the welding current automatically as the arc shortens, keeps it from going out and stops the electrode sticking, which is decisive when welding in difficult positions and with special purpose electrodes. Work stays continuous and penetration stays good.
- Hot Start: Makes striking the arc easier by briefly delivering a higher current at the start of the weld. This removes problems with a cold start and gives an immediate, sure beginning even with damp electrodes or corroded material.
- Anti-Stick: Stops the electrode sticking to the material being welded by cutting the current automatically in a short circuit. This protects the electrode from damage and makes it easy to free, which reduces downtime and frustration.
- These functions make the work intuitive and the results more predictable and professional, whatever your experience.
- Remarkably compact and light: At about 3.57 kg and with small dimensions, the FORCE 145 welder stands for mobility. You can carry it to any work station without effort, even into tight spaces or up to height. A sound answer for professionals working on site, for fitters and for hobby users who value convenience and order in the workshop.
- Full protection of the machine: The TELWIN FORCE 145 carries a set of protections covering thermostatic, overvoltage, undervoltage and overload conditions. These systems shield the welder from damage in poor working conditions or with unstable supply and keep its life long and reliable. You can work calmly, knowing your equipment is safe.
- A complete set ready for work (ACX - Accessories): The ACX version is supplied with a quality automatic welding helmet and the necessary accessories, such as the welding cables for the electrode and the earth. That means you get a complete welding station ready to use, which saves time and money on looking for extra equipment. Full eye protection and comfort at work from the first moment.
