Further info

OXFORD MIGMAKER models are all made in the UK using copper wound transformers & simple technology. Built rugged & robust to give you a lifetime of reliable use.

2025 models offer even more than before & now look as smart as they perform!

Spot timer function is now standard on all, a hinged door to the left side provides access to the wire drive compartment, this also includes a tool storage area. An updated PCB & wire feed gives a higher torque & more consistent wire drive than any previous MIGMAKER to date. The wire drive motor & gearbox is made using all metal gears & bearings for a long life. All models use our standard 30mm wire feed rollers FEC.….. All sizes from 0.6mm-1.2mm available for hard wire, aluminium wire & flux cored wire. Like our older models these start at 20 amps, all MIGMAKER models tackle the thinnest material from 0.5mm without blowing through, even rusted panels & exhausts are welded with ease.

 

MIGMAKER 182

Great smooth welding performance from our smallest model. Ideal for home workshops, car repairs, light fabrication & repairs. The 4 volt steps are carefully selected to cover the output range well. number 1 setting is suitable for the thinnest metal from 0.5mm to around 1.2mm, number 2 setting is only a little higher to cover the range 1.2mm-3mm, number 3 setting is ideal for 2.5mm-4mm & number 4 setting 4mm upwards. This machine has plenty of power for occasional 5-6mm welding jobs.

Fitted with a blue *16A plug standard (13A plug can be specified on request).

 

MIGMAKER 202

Super smooth welding performance. Ideal for home workshops, car repairs, light fabrication & repairs, small gates & railings. With 8 volt steps the output range can be regulated very precisely to suit the application. The lower voltage settings are chosen with only small gaps, number 1 setting allows welding of very thin sheet from 0.5mm, number 2 is only a little higher, number 3 only a little more again. The voltage output step increases towards the top end where it’s not so important for precise control. This machine has plenty of power for occasional 6-8mm welding jobs.

Fitted with a blue *16A plug standard (13A plug can be specified on request).

 

MIGMAKER 252

Super smooth welding performance & plenty of punch for thicker material. Ideal for automotive work, fabrication & repair jobs, gate & railings, light farm repairs. With 12 volt steps the output range offers precise regulation. As with all our models the lower voltage settings are chosen with only small gaps, number 1 setting allows welding of very thin sheet from 0.5mm, number 2 is only a little higher, number 3 only a little more again. The voltage output step increases towards the top end where it’s not so important for precise control. This machine has plenty of power for occasional 8-10mm welding jobs.

Fitted with a blue *32A plug standard (16A plug can be specified on request).

 

MIGMAKER 302

Our most powerful machine in the range. Super smooth welding performance & lots of power for heavier jobs without compromising the ability to weld the thinnest material. Ideal for automotive work, fabrication & repair jobs, gate & railings & medium farm repair work. With 12 volt steps the output range provides fantastic regulation. As with all our models the lower voltage settings are carefully chosen with only small gaps, number 1 setting allows welding of very thin sheet from 0.5mm, number 2 is only a little higher, number 3 only a little more again. The voltage output step increases towards the top end where it’s not so important for precise control. This machine has plenty of power for occasional 12mm welding jobs.

Fitted with a blue *32A plug standard (16A plug can be specified on request).

*Standard plug fitted is to comply with short circuit tests in IEC60974-6. On request we will fit a smaller plug but it may result in occasional fuse or circuit breaker operation at high output power.
