I notice that a lot of welders have lift-start to initiate the arc when TIG welding. Mine does. When reading manuals about this it says that it "starts the arc without the use of high frequency" like HF is a bad thing in certain situations.
If a welder had HF, then why would a company go out of the way to do the research and development to add lift-start too of lift-start is so primitive and requires more skill?
Are there certain welding situations where HF start is a bad thing? Are there situations where lift-start has an advantage?
