Fronius AccuPocket: The Future of Mobile Welding Freedom
Fronius AccuPocket is redefining what’s possible in welding mobility. As the world’s first battery-powered welder, it delivers the same reliable performance you expect from Fronius — but with complete freedom from mains power. Whether you’re working on a remote site, up scaffolding, or handling emergency repairs, the AccuPocket lets you weld anywhere, anytime, without compromise.
What Is the Fronius AccuPocket?
The Fronius AccuPocket 150 is a portable, battery-powered welding machine designed for MMA (stick) and TIG welding applications.
Powered by advanced lithium-ion technology, it offers full welding power without requiring a generator or mains connection. You can weld up to 18 electrodes (Ø 3.25 mm) on a single charge — enough for most on-site jobs.
When you do need extended runtime, you can plug it into a small generator (as little as 2 kVA) or the mains for hybrid use, recharging the battery while you continue welding.
Key Features and Benefits
1. True Portability
Weighing just around 11 kg, the AccuPocket is compact, lightweight, and built for easy transport. No long cables, no heavy power units — just grab, go, and weld.
2. Power Without Compromise
The integrated battery provides up to 150 A of welding power, ensuring the same arc stability and penetration as larger, traditional Fronius machines.
3. Hybrid Flexibility
Operate completely off-grid or plug in for continuous welding. The hybrid function allows charging while in use, so downtime is minimal.
4. Efficient and Cost-Effective
With no need for large generators, you save on fuel, noise, and maintenance costs. Ideal for construction sites, field service, and maintenance teams.
5. Reliable, Durable Design
Built by Fronius in Austria, the AccuPocket features a rugged, weather-resistant casing. It’s designed for tough jobsite environments while maintaining long-term reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Fronius AccuPocket
Q: How long does the battery last?
A: One full charge allows you to weld approximately up to 18 electrodes or up to 17 minutes of TIG welding at full power. The battery can recharge in about 30 minutes to 80% when plugged into mains or generator power.
Q: Can I use the AccuPocket for all welding applications?
A: It’s best suited for maintenance, repair, installation, and remote welding jobs — anywhere where mains power isn’t accessible. For high-volume or automated production, a mains-powered unit is still recommended.
Q: Is the Fronius AccuPocket durable enough for site work?
A: Yes. It’s built with a robust steel and polymer housing designed to withstand rough site conditions and temperature variations.
Q: What processes does it support?
A: The MMA model handles electrodes up to 4 mm. The TIG version offers precision welding with advanced Fronius TIG features such as TAC and Touch HF ignition.
