BEAD
WELDING is based on 3 factors:
HEAT SOURCE
FILLER
OXIDATION CONTROL
Simplest type of welding …
OXY-FUEL GAS WELDING
Two gases used in OXY-FUEL GAS WELDING
ACETYLENE
OXYGEN
Welding flame which has excess of Acetylene and is used for ALLOY STEEL and ALUMINUM
Carburizing/Reducing
Welding flame with equal amounts of the two gases and is used for LOW CARBON STEEL and MILD STEEL
Neutral Flame
Welding flame which has an excess of OXYGEN and is used for BRASS, BRONZE and COPPER
Oxidizing Flame
Provides a source of additional molten metal from which to build up the welding bead.
FILLER ROD
Advantages of OXI-FUEL GAS WELDING
Simple Inexpensive equipment
Les bulky PPE
Easy cleanup
Welding which derives its heat from an electrical discharge (arc) between the electrode and the workpiece
ARC WELDING
Most basic type of ARC WELDING
STICK WELDING
STICK WELDING is also known as SMAW
Shielded Metal Arc Welding
Used as the electrode in ARC WELDING, which also fulfills the function of a filler rod in oxy fuel welding.
WELDING ROD
Welding rods are coated in a brittle ceramic substance called a
FLUX
Types of FLUX for WELDING RODS
Basic-made from calcium carbonate, calcium fluoride, magnesium carbonate
Rutile-made from titanium
Cellulose
MIG welding
Metal Inert Gas Welding
GMAW
Gas Metal Arc Welding
MIG WELDING uses a motor to feed wire through the holder at a fixed rate, also known as…
GUN
MIG WELDING floods the weld pool with inert gas (shielding gas) to replace the need of a flux, such as
ARGON
HELIUM
CARBON DIOXIDE
In MIG WELDING, what allows the operator to electrically connect/disconnect the wire electrode, and activate the wire feed?
TRIGGER
