Not really. Frequency in is frequency out, unless there is some conversion circuit in between, such as a motor-generator set or some kind of inverter. You may (and should) notice, however, that a typical welding transformer is rectifying three phase AC to DC, using a full wave rectifier. This results in a pulsating DC voltage where the ripple frequency is 360hz.
