Some Facts about Gas Metal Arc Welders:

Wednesday, February 9th, 2011

Welding is the process by which two metals are joined and there are many types of welding like MIG welding, TIG welding etc to name a few. In this league there is also another particular type of welding called arc welding. If you are doing this type of welding you need to choose the correct arc welder.

Arc welders are majorly in two types- Gas metal Arc Welders and Flux-Core Arc Welders. Based on a number of factors like the material you will work on, the atmosphere you will be working in etc you have to choose the arc welder which will suit you more.

When you take the gas metal arc welder as an option you must be aware that it is very tough to use them outdoors as the gases will get blown out by the wind. The gas metal arc welders can guarantee you precision and clean welding without having any scum formation by the oxidization of metals. These welders are preferred at a lot of manufacturing and industrial outlets to work on machines, automobile etc.

A View on Oxyacetylene Welding

Friday, May 14th, 2010

The other name for the oxyacetylene welding is gas welding. The methodology which is applied over here to perform the task of weld is by mixing up of two gas elements. Mixing up of oxygen and acetylene in an equal proportion is required in this weld type.

Along with the mixture of these two gases the other elements which come into the contact are a welding torch which is hand-held or a gas blow pipe from which a sultry flame is generated where the temperature will be around 3,200 degree Celsius. To regulate the disproportionate outpouring of oxyacetylene flames you have to then change the proportion of two gases from oxygen to acetylene. To adjust the settings of the flame you can make use of neutral, oxidizing and carburizing settings.

If the mixing ratios of both gases are equal then the weld is generally carried on neutral flame setting. In the second kind of setting, the outpour of oxidizing flame is acquired by escalating the flow rate of oxygen. And in the last type of setting, carburizing flame is acquired by escalating the flow rate of acetylene. Oxyacetylene welding procedure is best suited to weld the steel, as the amount of heat produced here is high

Benefits of Gas Welding Machines

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

With the use of a heat source if you are about to make two metals fuse then it is called as welding. From time immemorial welding has been in practice in someway or the other. Later to accomplish this electricity or gas has been used to produce heat. But gas is the first type of heat generator that has been used well before electricity. Even till this date gas welding is popularly used. It has the capability to heat, braze, solder, cut and weld. These activities can be performed with just a single source of heat. Here are some of its well known benefits;

  • They are cheap to invest and to maintain.
  • It is capable of more than its counterpart.
  • It is a great source for melting and bending too.
  • It is the most popular source of generating heat.
  • It is used by almost every professional shop. This is due to its inexpensive and wide range of applications.
