MIG Welding Machine PATON™ ProMIG–270–15–4 – basic information

The digital inverter-based MIG Welding Machine PATON™ ProMIG-270-15-4 combines versatility with high energy efficiency, making it ideal for professional applications. It supports SMAW (covered electrode), GMAW (MIG/MAG), FCAW (with or without shielding gas) and GTAW LIFT (TIG). With an adjustable current range of 12–270 A, you can fine-tune the parameters for workshop tasks as well as on-site welding. The ProMIG-270-15-4 model accommodates covered electrodes from 1.6 to 6.0 mm, welding wires of 0.6–1.2 mm and tungsten electrodes in the 1.0–3.2 mm range — excellent for series production and steel fabrication in heavy industry.

A robust 4-roller wire feeder, compatible with 5, 15 and 18 kg spools, ensures stable, precise feeding, particularly suitable for soft aluminium prone to deformation. The polarity-switch feature (DCEP/DCEN) allows flexible configuration for various processes, including MIG/MAG or FCAW. A universal EURO connector and modular design offer user comfort and high safety standards.

In MMA and TIG modes, welding can be performed using only the power source, without moving the entire feeding system. The machine is also designed to operate with generators and long extension cables, providing full efficiency under diverse field conditions. Advanced digital control enables precise adjustment of welding voltage, shielding gas flow time, and wire feed speed, adapting the unit to different materials and job requirements. It also excels in chemical and food-processing industries, where the quality of aluminium and stainless-steel welds is essential.

The design of the ProMIG 270 15-4 model (15 kg spool, also capable of handling a 5 kg spool – 4 roll feeder) provides some of the best protection against external influences on the market. This model’s rated current of 270A at a 70% duty cycle is a result that allows intensive welding of 6mm materials without the risk of overheating. The power source can be separated from the welding wire feed mechanism for ease of use and safety. Characteristic features of PATON™ Professional Series semi-automatic welding machines are the high-quality sealed metallic wire feeder, as well as the existing KZ-2 “EURO” type connector, which has become a standard worldwide, allowing the user to change the holder at will in the future. In a completely electronic system, the control system has absolutely all the resources of the source, within the limits of its full power and regardless of what method is used. The device of “Professional” series is designed for industrial use, for the most demanding users.

Functions and features of MIG Welding Machine PATON™ ProMIG–270–15–4

GASLESS FUNCTION – WELDING WITH SELF-CONSUMING WIRE
All PATON MIG/MAG welding machines are adapted for welding with self-source wire. Such welding, as opposed to the traditional MIG/MAG welding process, is carried out without shielding gas – however, it requires a special welding wire. The wire produces its own shielding, which helps to protect the welding arc. Self-shielded wire suitable for PATON welding machines can be purchased here – 5 kg spools of wire will fit all wire feeders.

SOLDERING – INDUCTANCE ADJUSTMENT

 PATON™ MIG/MAG welders of the Standard and PRO series have the possibility of brazing thanks to the function of changing the inductance in three stages. The inductance control enables to optimize the characteristics of the arc depending on the thickness of the component to be welded. This function is necessary to change the speed of the current flow when changing the arc voltage. The thinner the element to be welded with MIG/MAG, the higher the inductance should be (soft arc – less fusion), for thicker elements the opposite (hard arc – more fusion).

PULSE FUNCTION IN ALL METHODS

– PULSE in TIG welding – full control of heat entering the material – a great feature for welding stainless steel and acid-resistant steel,

– PULSE in MMA – easier transfer of material from electrode to weld pool, better quality of welded joint,

THE MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MIG/MAG WELDING MACHINES OF STANDARD AND PRO SERIES:

• duty cycle – PRO series MIG/MAG welders have a 70% duty cycle, while the Standard series has a 45% cycle at the same welding current. In addition, MIG/MAG welding machines in the PRO series achieve a continuous duty cycle at a higher welding current than MIG/MAG welding machines in the Standard series.
• Wire feeder – The PRO Series has a separate wire feeder that handles spools from 15 to 18 kilos. The feeder can be separated from the source for convenience in welding other methods – such as MMA or TIG DC. The PRO Series also has 2 roll or 4 roll wire feeder versions. On MIG/MAG Standard Series welders, the wire feeder is built into the welder, only handles spools up to 5 kilos and always has two rolls.
