Shielded Metal ARC Welding Machine
Product Code : LSK-SWES-10692
Shielded Metal ARC Welding Machine (SKU LSK-SWES-10692) is a three-phase power source for manual metal arc welding, also called stick or MMA welding, with coated electrodes. Instructors use it in ITI welder courses, polytechnic workshops and TVET welding programmes. Science Lab Supplies supplies this welding machine for training institutes from Ambala, India to technical institutes, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The machine runs on a 440 V AC three-phase supply with a tolerance of ±15% and has a rated input capacity of 12 kVA. Its specification lists a power factor above 0.9, good arc start and arc force, low spatter, a compact light body and protection against low voltage, high voltage, single phasing and voltage surges.

Applications and Experiments for the SMAW Welding Machine
The machine is used to teach manual metal arc welding from the first arc strike to finished joints. It suits practical sessions in the ITI Welder trade, diploma and B.Tech workshop practice, and TVET welding and fabrication modules, where trainees weld mild steel plate and pipe under an instructor.
- ITI Welder trade: striking and maintaining an arc, running straight beads and making butt and fillet joints.
- Diploma and B.Tech workshop practice: the arc welding exercise in manufacturing processes courses.
- TVET welding and fabrication modules: stick welding of plate in flat, horizontal and vertical positions.
Have a qualified electrician connect the 440 V three-phase input. Arc welding gives off ultraviolet light, spatter and fumes, so trainees should weld only under supervision in a ventilated bay, with a shield, gloves and protective clothing.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Shielded Metal ARC Welding Machine is supplied as a single unit as described above; any optional accessories are listed on the quotation. Electrodes are a consumable and are quoted separately.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for a quotation for one machine or for every bay of a welding workshop, and each quotation from Science Lab Supplies states the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Protective gear from this range can go on the same TVET workshop equipment quotation.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Enquire via the contact page or enquiry cart; see also the lab tender page.
