MIG-500 — Industrial-Grade Power for the Most Demanding Welding Jobs
When the job calls for welding 50mm steel plate in a shipyard, a steel construction site, or a high-output fabrication shop, you need a machine that won't flinch. The MIG-500 Industrial MIG Welder from Doughty is built for exactly that — dual IGBT modules, 500A output, and a 4-in-1 process capability that handles whatever you throw at it.
Why the MIG-500 is the Industrial Standard:
- Dual IGBT Module Design — 40% enhanced arc stability with 30% reduced energy consumption vs. single-module machines
- 4-in-1 Multi-Process — Gas MIG/MAG, Gasless Flux-Core MIG, and Stick (MMA) welding in one unit
- 500A Maximum Output — Penetrates up to 50mm steel; handles the heaviest structural and industrial work
- 60% Duty Cycle @ 500A / 100% @ 387A — Built for continuous, high-volume production welding
- Independent 20kg Wire Feeder — Detachable, ergonomic feeder with 4-roller dual-drive for fatigue-free operation on large jobs
- Wide Wire Compatibility — Accepts 1.0–1.6mm wire: ER70S solid wire, E71TGS flux core, ER308L stainless steel wire
- 2T/4T Trigger Mode — Switch between modes to match your welding style and reduce operator fatigue
- Gas Check Function — Instantly verify gas flow and torch operation before starting
Ideal Applications:
Shipyards, steel construction, heavy fabrication shops, automotive manufacturing, and any industrial environment where high-amperage, continuous-duty welding is required.

Vinova Testimonials
I've used all types, brands, mig, tig, spool guns, arc, and for the money this little guy surprised me, outperformed my expectations, hopefully it lasts, welded for 2 hours straight today right out the box. Only downfall is the fixed whip and lack of ability to run gas. But for a portable 110 mig on a 100 ft extension cord it delivered

This mig welder works great for what it is. It's a light duty welder, and they make no claims for it being anything else, but it's absolutely perfect for most home and hobbyist use.
Jesse C. Benton
I ran weld’s within its duty cycle and it performed perfectly. I’m truly impressed by the little button that adjusts the wire feed automatically. As far as performance, weak. If’n it can put out 80 amps I’d be impressed and if cranked up? Well it just kicks off. Maybe my units defective, idk. Nice even arc below 3/4 power though.
