    IM 240-i Operation manual 4 WELDING PROCESSES 4.1 MIG/MAG Welding Partial mechanical gas shielded arc welding (MIG), optionally as MIG (inert gas welding, EN ISO 4063: process 131) or MAG welding (metal welding with active, ie reactive gases, EN ISO 4063: process 135), is an arc welding process in which the consumable welding wire is continuously tracked by a variable speed motor.
  • Page 13 Operation manual IM 240-i Arc ranges for 1.0mm Fe G3Si wire Short Arc The short arc occurs in the lower power range, at lower current intensities and arc voltages. Short arc transfer time The arc length changes cyclically. Thus, working point shifts of welding current and welding voltage are connected.
  • Page 14 IM 240-i Operation manual Mixed Arc Mixed arc transfer time view Between the arc types short and spray arc is the mixed arc which is characterized by strong spatter formation. Spray Arc Spray arc transfer time view The spray arc burns continuously without a short-circuit interruption. The material transfer from the wire electrode into the weld pool is fine-droplet.
