Question 1

Who is a leading welding machine manufacturer in India?

Accepted Answer

APS Welding (Advanced Power Sources Limited) is an ISO 9001:2015 certified welding machine manufacturer based in Valsad, Gujarat. It designs, manufactures and services IGBT inverter MIG, TIG, Stick, SAW, plasma cutting and welding automation equipment, with more than 22,600 machines installed.

Question 2

What types of welding machines does APS offer?

Accepted Answer

APS manufactures MIG and multiprocess CC-CV welders, DC pulse TIG welders, SMAW stick welders, submerged arc welders, multi-operator welders, carbon arc gouging machines, plasma cutters and welding automation such as positioners, rotators, welding arms, carriages and CNC plasma gantry cutting machines.

Question 3

Are APS welding machines suitable for heavy fabrication?

Accepted Answer

Yes. APS industrial power sources are built for continuous duty in heavy fabrication, pressure vessels, shipbuilding, structural steel, pipelines and power plant fabrication, where stable arc performance and high duty cycle are required.

Question 4

Does APS provide welding automation solutions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. APS supplies welding positioners, welding rotators, welding arms, column and boom systems, welding carriages, pipe profile cutting machines and CNC plasma gantry cutting machines that can be integrated with APS SAW, MIG and TIG power sources.

Question 5

Can APS supply welding machines to buyers outside India?

Accepted Answer

Yes. APS serves customers in India and international markets. Overseas buyers should share their site input voltage, phase and frequency, the welding process, material thickness and required duty cycle so the APS sales team can recommend a suitable configuration.

Question 6

How should I compare duty cycle ratings between welding machines?

Accepted Answer

Compare duty cycle at the same welding current and the same ambient temperature. Industrial machines are commonly rated to IEC 60974-1, which measures duty cycle over a 10-minute period at 40 degrees Celsius. A higher duty cycle at your actual working current means less downtime from thermal cut-off.

Question 7

What after-sales support does APS provide?

Accepted Answer

APS provides application guidance, installation support, trained service engineers, spare parts and a dealer network. Service calls can be booked online or by calling the dedicated service line +91 96013 33888.
