The Buddy™ Arc 145 is a user friendly, robust and light weight stick (MMA) welding machine. The internal electronics are cooled by a highly efficient fan for added reliability and monitored by a thermal protection system. The machine is equipped with three heat sinks which further extends the lifetime of the product. The casing has been designed to withstand harsh environments and incorporates both a shoulder strap and a carry handle.
