Sunstone Orion 100c Pulse Arc Welder
The Orion 100c is built for jewelers who need professional welding capability in a small, efficient footprint. With a power range from 3 to 100 joules—adjustable in precise 0.5-joule steps—it delivers the flexibility to work on everything from delicate components to larger pieces without the complexity of a full-size system. For small shops, home studios, and independent metalsmiths, it’s the reliable, all-purpose welder that earns its spot on the bench.
Designed with working jewelers in mind, the 100c streamlines your workflow. Use it to extend prongs, close seams, fill porosity, add metal, secure components, tack pieces ahead of soldering, or handle everyday repairs with consistent, predictable results. Its intelligent software lets you simply choose your metal and application, and the machine automatically dials in an ideal starting point—perfect for new users or busy professionals who want fast setup and clean welds.
Bright LED illumination and optional 5x microscope or upgraded ADL viewing systems ensure every detail is easy to see, while on-screen guides walk you step by step through key welding tasks. The 100c also functions as both a pulse arc welder and a capacitive discharge resistance welder, giving you two modes—Arc Mode and Tack Mode—to cover almost any micro-welding scenario.
For jewelers who want capability without complexity, the Orion 100c is compact, powerful, and ready for daily use. Backed by Sunstone’s outstanding support team, a 3-year warranty, and optional lifetime protection, it’s a tool you’ll depend on for years to come.
