Lincoln Electric introduced the all-new Ranger Air 260MPX multifunction engine drive at Work Truck Week. Available later this year, the machine is many things: an air compressor, generator, battery charger, battery-jump assist, and multi-process welder all in one, according to the manufacturer. The compact machine eliminates the need to carry numerous pieces of power equipment on a service truck. Compared to other machines in its class, the Ranger Air 260MPX engine drive delivers performance across the board, in air compressor capabilities, clean auxiliary power and welding arc performance:
- The Vanair compressor delivers 40 cfm at 150 psi. With up to 30% more air than other machines in its class, operators are able to inflate tires faster and power anything up to a 1-in. impact wrench.
- The 26.5-hp Kohler Electronic Throttle Body Engine delivers 10 kW of continuous AC generator power to accommodate a variety of tools and equipment.
- Lincoln Electric’s field-proven welding arc control technology is built directly into the Ranger Air 260MPX to help deliver a stable reliable arc. These include Ready.Set.Weld technology and ArcFX technology. Auto-stop/start technology with tap-to-start functionality enables the operator to save up to $1,200 in fuel and maintenance costs per year.
