Thank you very much for posting this, i had quite a few questions I had on this model I couldn't get an answer to online. Very informative.
George Hindley Thanks ! I appreciate the input 👊
@@chris_b_liven
I'm sorry, I'm getting at my wits end with this Esab model I've had for a few yrs. But- I can't decide which one model 2700 or 2200. The various gun liners that fronius sells with these to 0.035, 0.045 etc. Is there a separate linear that I have to swap out/purchase between aluminum and mild steel set up, is there one linear that works for both between feeding 0.30 to 0.045 and whichever alloy ? Thank you for your time
George Hindley I suggest ordering the 1/16 liner, .052 tips and .045 drive wheels and weld with 3/64 aluminum wire. You can weld all the way down to .060 plate thickness. Then swap the liner each time you want to weld aluminum as it will eliminate cross contamination
Good job Chris on the demo of a GREAT machine. The technology in the new welding machines is amazing. They are a long way from the old 350lb transformer stick only machines. Back in the day they were state of the art.
Steve Warner Thanks. I appreciate it ! Oh yeah i remember back in welding class. The machines that could survive a zombie apocalypse
Anyway thanks for video,
This is only channel where i found MIG, TIG both practical demo.
Thanks
Just got mine today. Thanks to the guys at GTW welding supplies. Haven’t used it yet. If I didn’t have to work tomorrow I’d be out there all night having fun! Thanks Chris for this video. Very helpful
Dane Werkema Nice!! Now you have two Fronius machines ?
Yes sir! Very happy with then. Great machines
Great intro to the 2700! Thanks
Thank you for your videos, they are excellent. This is an excellent mig machine, top tear, with the TIG and especially the stick functions looking like an afterthought to me.
Yes, the stick functions are minimal due to not having 6010 but the DC TIG lift arc is nice
Nice review and thanks for the swag Chris!
Mike Quas No Problem Mike 💪

MilkyCereal83 Looking into adding additional welder to my small shop. This answered question about single phase and running of generator.
Ernest Jean great to hear. If you end up getting a unit or if you have questions on where to purchase shoot me an email at Bliven.christopher@fronius.com - I’ll get you hooked up with a swag bag for your purchase
Finaly a good revieuw of the 2700
Thanks 💯
@@chris_b_liven
I was going for the 2200 to replace my lincoln mp210 but now im sold for the 2700 thnx to this video.
Hey whats up man had to look you up.... honestly the editing is pretty 👌. The welders alright too haha
Thanks dude !!!! Good talking with you
Got the TS2000, questions: 1) Why is there no Synergic mode for 0.8mm flux core? 2) Why does Aluminium start at 1mm, and if you have 0.8mm wire, can you still use it?
Está súper, asta dan ganas de.
Thanks for watching
What is the liner size you recommend for using mig for aluminum 1/16, now is that the same as [ Fronius Mig Gun Steel Liner C 1.6 - 40, 0002, 0055, 005]? Can you please send a link or a description how to set this 2700 up for Mig Aluminum
Hey Chris, thanks for the Fronius videos! I have looked through the manual and cant seem to figure out how to change the wire feed speed from metric to SAE, how did you change it? mine is metric
Did you figure it out?
I have a quick question, When you were adjusting your settings at the 7:57ish mark how were you able to adjust it in that manner. I've tried numerous times to make the settings on my TransSteel 2700 and my machine will not allow me to make the adjustments your making. If I adjust the voltage the wire feed speed changes, Like I cant seem to change any individual setting while in synergic mode like you are here. Thank You
You have to turn on ALC in the second setup menu to separate both
SALUDOS 👍
That Shirt Tho!
Heck yeah !!!
Great Video! I'm glad someone finally did a Video on the 2700. They are always the 2200. This is my Dream Mig Machine. This does have Pulse capabilities on Mig as well doesn't it?
Phillip Chambers I’ll start a new trend of 2700 videos. No pulse capabilities. It runs so well without that you would think it does. Thanks for watching Phillip
I have a pulse machine Phillip and believe me, they're not all what they're cracked up to be. We've all gotten 2nd degree burns from pulsing, my son spent almost 2 weeks hibernating in his room from flash burn (his helmet on 10 darkness). My machinist looked like cooked bacon and it ruined my welding table pulsing black bubble streaks through the cracks of everything we welded. It welds great in synergistic mode, but if I were you, I'd steer clear from anything pulse for now. And yes, I had the correct gas, we mix our own here.
@@shelbygrinders3839 seems someone dont know how to use a pulse mig.. Ive tried out a tsp400 and that was incredible..
Hi, what would you advise for truck repair? Transsteel 2700 will be enough on thick metal or 3500 maybe?(2700 has one phase,that’s cool)
Hey. The 2700 should be a big enough machine for truck repair. What is the maximum wire size you will use? There is a promotion running where you receive a free secondary MIG lead with purchase. Shoot me an email and I can help with directing you to the closest dealer - Bliven.Christopher@fronius.com
What's the amperage the brakes and the gage of the extension power cord you use for the single phase?
30 AMP breaker with 8 3 cord… The machine comes with a 8/4 power cord
Thanks for the vid. Hope to see more on the 2700.
Kris, thanks for watching. I appreciate it 👊
I have the magic wave 230 and love it. Thinking about getting this to upgrade my esab fabricator 252i. What CANT this do that the comparable MiG only miller and Lincoln’s (powermig and millermatic) can do? Anything? Why would anybody not get this?!
It’s has everything plus more!! Only reason someone wouldn’t buy this is because they don’t know Fronius
@@chris_b_liven I feel that. It just feels borderline goofy to buy a multi process machine strictly for the MiG. I wish they made a MiG only equivalent that was cheaper because I already have a way better tig and will never use this for tig. My only other wish is that this could go way lower amps on 115 volt power like the magic wave can.
@@calebsiegler5471It’s hard to beat the Magic Wave for TIG welding . I sent you another message
I have the same machine running on a single phase power supply but i don't know why im limited to 155 material thickness on the board Mig Synergic mode what am i doing wrong ?
Which type of wire and diameter? There is a background setting where you can set your fuse size. Make sure it’s turned to max or off to open up the machine amperage
Do you sacrifice penetration trying to get the TIG appearance with MIG?
freshpootube Yes, you can sacrifice penetration as you have to run short circuit MIG to achieve the appearance. My suggestion would be to weld one using this technique and one with no weave and higher settings. Cross section and etch to determine penetration in the root. This will show you true strength based on techniques. For anything structural I suggest a non weave with higher settings
Chris the thing with spray is if you going to do it then you have to do it correctly otherwise its almost pointless at times.. The fact that you getting spatter indicates that you are not actually in a spray because of your gas mix.. you need a narrow penetrating arc for spray to work correctly.. theres two arcs in spray believe it or not.. one fans out and super heats the surround base material.. the 2nd is the one with the punch and that punches right into the root of the parts you welding.. hence the good penetration.. you may well do get decent penetration of what you doing now but its wont be anywhere near as good as it could be. Spray is a hiss with a very slight crackle to it but you should be getting no spatter at all and spray is always done in a push due to how the arc behaves.. hope this helps from your fellow fronius user..
Thanks for sharing 👍 I’m a big fan of 95/5 O2 - What’s your favorite for spray ?
@@chris_b_liven I don't use a dedicated gas for spray my self.. i use a 83/15/02 mix as it works on almost anything.. i just have to up the voltage higher than normal to exceed the transition phase for a true spray.. luckily that is easily done as i can go upto 45v on my 3500c
@@Migman2020 Awesome!! I wish I had three phase power
@@chris_b_liven Best way to get 3 phase is just hooking up a 20kva avr generator tbh Dont do what some people do and use rotary phase converters because they kill welders in the long run etc But yeah i got fed up with single phase welding a while back.. far too limited for the large jobs
Spray arc is above 31V on the mix 82Ar/18Co2
It ranges depending on wire size as well. I can get .030 wire to spray around 27-28 volts depending on wirefeed speed
Hi- How can i configure Fronius TransSteel 2700 to weld aluminum, I have many problems with this machine
what issues you having? i have a 3500c model and its been fine
Can you do some demonstration how do welds on 4 to 10 inch 12 gauge pipe?? Thank you!!
It’s possible but I need to find pipe
On 230 volt can you run this machine l blast as I've only got access to 32amp 240 volts I was under the impression that I could only get to 230 amps on 240 ?
220/230/240 V single phase you get maximum 180 amps stick/220 Amps MIG/260 AMPS TIG
@@chris_b_liven what is the duty cycle of the 2700 on single phase, I’m trying to decide if o should get the 2200 or the 2700. I only have single phase
@@stevenhjorleifson1050 Hey the 2200 is 100% at 150 amp 230v and the 2700 is 170 amps 100% 230v. I would say the benefit of a 2700 would be larger spool accommodations, more wire type options, 4 roll drive vs 2 and groove weld root programs. Fronius is running a promo until the end of the year as well. Any purchase 2200/2700 receives a bundle with registration of serial number
@@chris_b_liven where can I find out more about this bundle? And is it available in Canada?
Awesome job man. Still collecting cans. Mw230i is next!
Thanks dude! With all the hoarding of cans I’ve been doing it wouldn’t take long 😜
Weird thing I noticed is that the 2700 on single phase actually has less output power on MIG, TIG, and STICK than the 2200! I did not expect *that!*
It’s same output for Stick/MIG and 50 amps more in TIG. You are correct! Buy this if you need larger spools or want the 4 wheel drive vs 2
Can you use a foot pedal on these multi processing machines ?
No, but the TIG torch has finger tip controls
So it is kinda gimped on single phase...?
Yes, a little . Not a full 270 on single phase
Can you configure the 2700 for tig running AC? For aluminum?
No, it’s DC lift arc only but you can MIG aluminum
are still happy with the transsteel 2700
The TransSteel 2700 is a beast!!! Especially MIG
can you use flux-Core with this machine?
Yes….
Will it weld body work? 22 gauge steel Chris? What's the thinnest you've been able to weld effectively? Lastly, how does it compare to the 2200 with welding thinner material?
Shelby Grinders Body work wont be an issue with the machine. I suggest using the steel root program as it’s super stable down to 20-30 amps. I didn’t talk about the stitch timer it has included but this works very well for keeping heat out. At the very end I told the limitations on single it’s 220 Amps MIG / 180 Stick / 260 Amps TIG . Let me know if you have more questions
@@chris_b_liven Yes I actually stopped the video short and asked the question about the amperage prematurely lol. I edited the question, thank you brother and sub'd. ;)
@@chris_b_liven One last question, barring the 44lb spool, is there any benefit to getting the 2700 over the 2200 since the amperage is exactly the same via single phase? I really like being able to plug my migs into a regular 110v as well, (which the 2200 has capabilities of doing), so again, would there be any benefit at all barring the 44lb spool?
Shelby Grinders Thanks for subscribing 👊
Shelby Grinders 4 roll drive system vs 2, larger spool options, about 30 more amps in TIG, Root programs and possibly of three phase power. If you like the 110 option and don’t care about larger spools then I would say 2200
Can you use a tig pedal with that machine?
No foot pedal option with the TransSteel machines
@@chris_b_liven Thanks, I had emailed about the rental program but haven't heard back yet. Not sure if it went through.
@@jdeluisa got it. I just sent a response
Can it do pulse spray?
TheSingleAss No pulse options on this unit.
If money is not an issue…would you buy this mod over the 2200? Thanks
If you need the option of bigger spools then Yes! If you don’t mind 10lbs spools and the option of 110 then I would get a 2200. There is a promo running until July 15th on the 2200. If you register the serial number you get a free MIG lead. If you shoot me an email with your info I can have a distributor reach out - bliven.christopher@fronius.com
@@chris_b_liven I sent a message. Thanks for the info
Milky, can you get with Corey about my issue and help resolve this?
What size generator
8,000 Watt Briggs & Stratton
Does it have synergic mode??
Gustavo Muñoz Yes. This is what I was welding with was Synergic mode
How do u dial in the thickness of the material??
Gustavo Muñoz it’s to the left of wirefeed speed. You can set it in thousands or millimeter
Sweet thank you, hope i see more vids on this machine there is almost none that show the real power on it
Gustavo Muñoz Count on more videos with this one
what max amps? mig on 230v and cycle?
220
@@chris_b_liven yes you said in your video thank you. im watching your video a lot about fronius welding. hopefully they make Pulse mig support for singgle phase. transteel 3000 pulse mig. 3 phase only
A single phase pulse TransSteel would be epic !!!
@@chris_b_liven why in others brand already made like miller multimatic
@@dommendoza Fronius is a Austrian owned family company with the core market share in Europe. A majority of power outside North America is three phase. What city and state are you from ? I could setup a demo so you can test if you need pulse
Great review! Great video! But you did a booboo. The mig lead isn't hot in stick and tig mode. You literally disconnect the feeder when you pull the lead out to put your stick lead. 🍻
Thanks for watching !!!! I appreciate it
@@chris_b_liven I am using a Miller XMT350 CC/CV multiprocess with a 74DX feeder for my mig and a Dynasty 400 for my tig here in my home shop and I am thinking about jumping on the fronius transsteel 2700 myself for a dedicated light general use mig. You did a excellent job and you are a good welder
@@sledsports Great to hear! Shoot me an email and I could setup a time to discuss. Bliven.Christopher@Fronius.com
Yea. I need a roll around unit. My remote feeder is nice but it's a hassle to drag the lead, the control cables, the optima control, and the inert gas hose all together around the shop. I'd rather have a little roll around unit with just a main to drag. Is it the full 270 amp on single phase in mig or is it cut back too?. I know my miller's will run full bore 400 amp on the dynasty and 425 and on the xmt but the duty cycle suffers. The dynasty is 15% full bore 400 amp on single phase which doesn't bother me any as I tig only with it.
@@sledsports Yes, the TransSteel 2700 is lowered down to 220/230 amps single phase MIG. If you need that much amperage a rotary phase converter would be a perfect pair. It would depend on how much amperage you need
