The Genesis 800 is APS Welding’s heavy-industrial-grade Carbon Arc Gouging (CAG) machine, built for continuous weld defect removal, back-gouging, and metal cutting in demanding manufacturing and site environments. Powered by a 20 kHz Full Bridge IGBT Module Inverter, it delivers stable DC constant current output with precise arc control for both gouging and SMAW stick welding.
Rated at 800 Amps at 60% duty cycle and 600 Amps at 100% continuous duty, the Genesis 800 handles carbon electrode diameters from 6.0mm to 12.0mm — enabling groove depths from 3mm to 13mm on mild steel, structural steel, stainless steel, and carbon steel. Its wide input voltage range of 365–500VAC makes it reliable on DG sets and generator power, critical for yard and site operation.
The machine’s full metal body on a wheel-mounted chassis weighs 130 kg and carries an IP21 ingress protection rating with Class H insulation. Advanced protection circuits include over-temperature, over-current, 3-phase supply protection, and automatic OCV reduction to prevent operator shocks during no-load intervals.
Manufactured at APS Welding’s ISO 9001:2015 certified facility in Valsad, Gujarat — every Genesis 800 is designed, built, and tested in-house for consistent output quality and long-term operational reliability. Higher amperage models — Genesis 1000 and Genesis 1200 — are also available.
