OVERVIEW

Professional Aluminum Welding Solution

The Canaweld Multiprocess 231 SLM Package for Aluminum is a comprehensive welding solution designed for professionals who require versatility and specific aluminum capabilities. This package takes the robust 231 SLM inverter platform—known for its reliability and power—and equips it with the necessary tools to tackle aluminum projects immediately. At the heart of this bundle is the inclusion of a high-performance Spool Gun, which eliminates the feeding issues commonly associated with soft aluminum wires in standard MIG torches.

Ideally suited for maintenance, repair, and light industrial fabrication, this machine offers dual-voltage capability, allowing it to operate on standard 120V household power or 240V industrial lines. This flexibility makes it perfect for mobile repair trucks or shops with varying power availability. The machine supports MIG, TIG, and Stick processes, ensuring that whether you are welding steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, you have the right process at your fingertips. The intuitive interface simplifies setup, reducing downtime and increasing productivity for MRO applications.

Key Benefits for Industry:

  • Turnkey Aluminum Readiness: No need to source aftermarket spool guns; everything is matched and tested by Canaweld.
  • Portability: Lightweight inverter technology allows for easy transport to the job site.
  • Versatile Power: Auto-sensing dual voltage input adapts to available power sources.

FAQ

Yes, this package specifically includes a Spool Gun, which is the preferred tool for feeding aluminum wire. You will still need to provide the appropriate shielding gas (typically 100% Argon) and the aluminum wire spool itself.

The machine is capable of delivering up to 230 Amps, providing sufficient power for welding aluminum and steel up to approximately 1/2 inch thick in a single pass depending on the process.

Yes, the Canaweld 231 SLM is a dual-voltage machine. It can operate on standard 120V household power (with reduced output) or 240V power for full capacity.

The TIG function on the 231 SLM is DC only. This means it is suitable for TIG welding steel and stainless steel, but not for TIG welding aluminum (which requires AC). However, you can MIG weld aluminum excellently with the included spool gun.

Synergic control allows the machine to automatically set the voltage and wire feed speed based on the material type, wire diameter, and gas you select. This simplifies setup and helps ensure a stable arc.

Canaweld typically offers a 3-year warranty on their power sources. Please check the specific documentation included with your purchase for detailed warranty terms.

Yes, by changing the polarity (which is easily done on the front panel or inside the cabinet depending on the model) and using the standard MIG gun with flux-cored wire.
