The Lincoln Electric Ranger® 260MPX™ is a versatile engine-driven welder/generator designed for various welding processes, including Stick (SMAW), TIG (GTAW), MIG (GMAW), and Flux-Cored welding.
Lincoln Electric However, it does not list carbon arc gouging (also known as air arc gouging) among its supported processes.Carbon arc gouging is a process that typically requires higher current outputs than standard welding operations. The Ranger 260MPX™ has a maximum output of 260 amps at 100% duty cycle.
Lincoln Electric While this output may be sufficient for light gouging tasks, it may not provide the necessary power for more demanding gouging applications, which often require higher amperage.For more intensive gouging operations, Lincoln Electric offers models like the Ranger® 330MPX™, which provide higher amperage outputs suitable for such tasks. It's important to select equipment that matches the specific requirements of your gouging applications to ensure optimal performance and safety.
