Welder Generators

A Cut Above The Rest

What Is an Engine Driven Welder?

Not all welding jobs take place in a shop or near an adequate power source. When the process requires an independent power source, engine drive welders can provide any weld through diesel, propane, or gasoline generators.

Engine-driven welders are used for outdoor purposes, and most can be transported on a truck or trailer to the job site. They can support most forms of welding methods, making them versatile and valuable equipment.

  • MIG welders
  • TIG welders

How To Choose An Engine Driven Welder

CK Supply has an extensive line of engine drives to buy or rent, and when choosing a unit, there are many things to consider before making the investment.

  • Portability

    Gasoline engine drives tend to be smaller and more portable, which helps if the intended application requires the welder to be lifted or carried to the work area.

  • Fuel Consumption

    Engine drives commonly use gasoline, diesel, and propane as fuel and each option offers different benefits. Gasoline engines are smaller, while diesel engines are more fuel-efficient.

  • Power Capacity

    Engine drives can provide between 5,000 and 20,000 watts of power, which means the more robust options can simultaneously run power tools or air compressors.

  • Application

    Always consider the materials being welded and the intended job’s size before choosing the welding machine for the job.
