Types of welding possible with Helvi GALILEO 179

• MMA : Also called coated electrode welding, it is certainly the most widespread welding method in non-professional environments or in processes that do not require particular quality and production performance. This type of welding machine is simpler to use even if it gives less precise results from an aesthetic point of view compared to other types of welding.
• TIG : It requires low voltage and therefore absorbs little, becoming more economical and is aesthetically the most beautiful of all welding techniques. In fact, TIG welding has a so-called coin shape due to the circular shapes it produces and is more resistant, therefore it is usually used on visible elements and on processes that require precision.
