We offer a range of welding machines to suit your needs. The Zapp welder is ideal for those handling a smaller workload, servicing 1 or 2 clients per week with delicate chains, thanks to its simplicity and fewer settings of only 7 different watt options. Moving up, the Zap Plus provides all the necessary settings with its 30 different watt options, making it perfect for thicker chains. Its minimalist design, operated via a dial, ensures ease of use. Finally, the Orion MPuls is the ultimate choice for professionals with a more generous budget. With 27 settings and an included Auto-Dimming Lens (ADL), it’s considered the premium option in welding machines out of the welders you can choose from as it also comes with a touch screen to change your settings.

1. Workload: Determine the volume of work you expect to handle regularly. If you’re only servicing a few clients per week, a simpler machine like the Zapp welder might suffice. For heavier workloads, you may need a more robust machine like the Zap Plus or the Orion MPuls.

2. Chain Type and Thickness: Consider the types of chains you’ll be working with. Delicate chains may require fewer settings and a gentler touch, making the Zapp welder suitable. Thicker or more robust chains may require higher wattage options available in machines like the Zap Plus or the Orion MPuls.

3. Budget: Assess your budget and determine how much you’re willing to invest in a welding machine. While the Zapp welder may be more budget-friendly, the Orion MPuls offers premium features at a higher cost.

4. Ease of Use: Evaluate the user-friendliness of the machine, especially if you’re a beginner. Machines like the Zap Plus and the Orion MPuls offer multiple settings but are designed for ease of operation, with features like a dial for adjusting settings.

5. Additional Features: Consider any additional features that may be beneficial for your work. For example, the Orion MPuls comes with an Auto-Dimming Lens (ADL), which can enhance precision and ease eye strain during welding.

A welding machine is a tool used to join metal pieces together by melting and fusing them. It generates an electrical current that passes through the metal components, creating a high-temperature arc that melts the metals and forms a strong bond when cooled. Its the welder that makes the permanent jewelry permanent.

Permanent jewelry typically utilizes high-quality materials to ensure durability, safety, and aesthetic appeal. The materials commonly recommended for permanent jewelry include sterling silver, gold-filled, 9-carat gold, and up to 14-carat gold. These materials are chosen for their corrosion resistance, hypoallergenic properties, and ability to withstand everyday wear. Sterling silver offers a classic and affordable option, while gold-filled and gold alloys provide a luxurious and long-lasting finish. By using these recommended materials, individuals can enjoy permanent jewelry pieces that are not only stylish but also durable and skin-friendly.
