Unique Welding has unveiled the Thermamax Vulcan 1200A Dual, a powerful new engine-driven welding generator designed to meet the tough demands of construction, mining, and remote operations across Africa.
Locally manufactured, the Vulcan 1200A Dual delivers an impressive 1,200 amps of welding power. This output comes from two 600 A multi-process inverters, powered by a turbocharged Perkins diesel engine and generator system.
Built for Harsh Environments
The machine is designed for sites where reliable grid power is unavailable. Key features include:
Dual Inverter System
Two 600 A inverters operate independently or together. They can power up to three welding arcs at once without affecting performance.
Multi-Process Welding
Compatible with MIG, Stick/MMA, Scratch TIG, and arc-air gouging. A single dial makes process selection and parameter adjustment simple.
Integrated Compressor
A built-in high-pressure piston compressor (5.5 kVA motor) allows for continuous gouging without stopping welding operations, improving productivity.
Auxiliary Power Outputs
Comes with two 380 V three-phase and two 220 V single-phase outlets to power additional tools or welding units.
Fuel Efficiency
The unit can operate for up to 12 hours on a full 100-litre diesel tank, depending on the load.
User-Friendly and Safe
The Vulcan 1200A Dual is built with operator safety and ease-of-use in mind:
Simple Controls
Each inverter has a clear front panel with just one switch and one power setting for quick setup.
Digital Stability
Features programmable constant voltage (CV) output, compatible with standard wire feeders.
Safety Features for Mining
Equipped with a lock-out electrical isolation system for maintenance, and a Voltage Reducing Device to lower the risk when the arc is off.
Locally Made, Customisable, and Supported
The Vulcan 1200A Dual is made in South Africa and can be customised to fit specific operational needs. Most orders are delivered within six weeks after specifications are confirmed. Each unit comes with a two-year warranty and support from Unique Welding’s nationwide service network.
Unique Welding, a leader in gas and welding solutions in South Africa, continues to deliver practical, high-performance equipment. The Vulcan 1200A Dual is another example of its commitment to innovation and cost-effective solutions for demanding environments.
