Cebora SYNSTAR 400 TS vs Cebora SYNSTAR TRIPLE 200 M
Technical comparison · MIG/MAG welding (wire feed)
The two inverter MIG/MAG welders do not belong in the same shop: the SYNSTAR 400 TS works at 400 A and needs three-phase power, the TRIPLE 200 M works at 200 A on 230 V single-phase mains. What decides it is the supply you have and how long you weld at a stretch.

| Software notes | The machine's operating system features advanced synergic control, significantly streamlining the setup of operating parameters. The SYNSTAR 400 TS comes standard with over sixty pre-loaded synergic programs, carefully optimized for various alloys, thicknesses, and wire diameters (iron, aluminum, stainless steel, and flux-cored wire). Users can save their custom settings in the system's memory for quick retrieval during repetitive tasks. The color LCD interface provides a clear and intuitive real-time readout of all welding values. Furthermore, the welder's base software is highly expandable: sophisticated features such as pulsed and double-pulsed welding are available via dedicated software upgrade packages. This modular approach allows the operator to adapt the power source to new and more complex welding requirements over time. | The power source features a 4.3-inch LCD control panel with a simple, user-friendly interface that facilitates smooth navigation through more than 75 preset welding programs. The internal software manages advanced synergic functions, including standard pulse and double pulse processes, and is fully upgradeable via direct ports. The interface allows fine-tuning of numerous parameters such as arc length, spot time, and inductance. Additionally, the software features built-in tools dedicated to aluminum welding, such as automatic Hot Start and Crater Filler, ensuring absolute and consistent control over the weld pool regardless of the material. |
The differences that matter
- Three-phase 400 V against single-phase 230 V → the 400 TS needs a three-phase supply; the TRIPLE 200 M plugs into a single-phase socket.
- 400 A against 200 A, continuous duty against short duty at rated current → the 400 TS welds without pauses, the TRIPLE 200 M alternates welding and cooling.
- Wire up to 1.6 mm and Ø300 spool (about 15 kg) against 1.2 mm and Ø200 (about 5 kg) → with the 400 TS fewer spool changes and thicker beads.
- About €7,500 against about €5,000 → the TRIPLE 200 M costs about €2,500 less.
Which one to choose
Choose SYNSTAR 400 TS if…
you weld structural work on thick parts with long, repeated beads and have a three-phase line in the shop. It comes with over sixty synergic programs preloaded for iron, aluminium, stainless and flux-cored wire. The trade-off is needing a three-phase supply and a machine almost 140 cm tall.
Choose SYNSTAR TRIPLE 200 M if…
you do repairs, frames and one-off parts on single-phase mains, with wire up to 1.2 mm, and weld aluminium with built-in Hot Start and Crater Filler. You accept a 200 A maximum current and more frequent pauses on long beads.
