HTP is at it again! Invertig 313 AC/DC 1/3-Φ 300A TIG welder!

admin

They just keep releasing more and more bada*# machines!  Looks like this one is the little brother of the Invertig 400, and the big brother of the 221!  From their website (features look identical to the 400, except that it tops out at 300A).HTP Invertig 313 AC/DCA typo that I keep seeing, at least on the 400, is the AC Frequency.  If it is identical to the 400, it should read:  20-400Hz (up to 99A), 20-200Hz (over 99A).  Also, not sure what is a "23-series" TIG torch, maybe a typo.No, I will not be buying one, lol.   1st on WeldingWeb to have a scrolling sig!

Reply:This would have interested me earlier this year but I bought something else. I'm happy with what I have.Curious that they went with the 350/400 before this model. This one has some very good specs and features.Ernie F.

Reply:Originally Posted by TraditionalToolworksWell, keep in mind that HTP pretty much follows Stel, and Stel had the 350/400 didn't they? This looks like a new machine that was recently designed.
Reply:Originally Posted by metalman21They are all made by Stel for the American market as far as I know, that's no secret. Which one is the new one based on? My guess is it's the 350/400, not sure.These are the European units: http://www.stelgroup.it/tig-2/?lang=en
Reply:I hardly think it's a "new design".  To me it seems like they simply de-tuned the Invertig 400 by changing out the power supply and of course adjusting the programming as needed.  This one doesn't accept 3-Φ power over 230V (nominally of course).  There is no listing for 400V/460V/500V/etc.  Other than that, the specs are identical as listed/described compared to the Invertig 400.  One person has one. Jimbo from Jimbo's Garage on YouTube has one.  It's on HTP's Instagram page. 1st on WeldingWeb to have a scrolling sig!

Reply:At 121 lbs it's not exactly portable, deff a shop welder.  I like the 221 in that I can pick it up with one hand and it can ride on the seat of the truck.  Still, looks like a hell of a machine for the price if someone needs a new shop welder.
