Most GP electrodes are Electrode connected to output socket, Earth Connected to the output socket (3) Set the welding current relevant to the electrode type and size being used as recommended by the electrode manufacturer.
  • Page 12: Mma(Stick) Welding Guide

    MMA(STICK) WELDING GUIDE MMA (Manual Metal Arc) Welding One of the most common types of arc welding is manual metal arc welding (MMA) or stick welding. An electric current is used to strike an arc between the base material and a consumable electrode rod or ‘stick’. The electrode rod is made of a material that is compatible with the base material being welded and is covered with a flux that gives off gaseous vapours that serve as a shielding gas and providing a layer of slag, both of which protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination.
  • Page 13 MMA(STICK) WELDING GUIDE ARC63O MMA (Stick) Welding Fundamentals Electrode Selection As a general rule, the selection of an electrode is straight forward,in that it is only a matter of selecting an electrode of similar composition to the parent metal. However, for some metals there is a choice of several electrodes, each of which has particular properties to suit specific classes of work.

    INSTALLATION SET UP FOR DC TIG WELDING ARC63O (1) Switch on the machine, select the TIG function with the Tig/MMA selector switch. (2) Insert the power cable plug of the Tig torch into the Negative socket on the front of the machine and tighten it. (3 Insert the earth cable plug into the Positive socket on the front of the machine and tighten it. (4) Connect the gas line of the Tig torch to regulator and connect the regulator to the gas cylinder.
  • Page 16 LIFT ARC DC TIG OPERATION Lift Arc ignition allows the arc to be started easily in DC Tig by simply touching the tungsten to the work piece and lifting it up to start the arc. This prevents the tungsten tip sticking to the work piece and breaking the tip from the tungsten electrode. There is a particular technique called “rocking the cup” used in the Lift Arc process that provides easy use of the Lift Arc function.
  • Page 17: Tig Welding Guide

    TIG WELDING GUIDE ARC63O DC TIG Welding The DC power source uses what is known as DC (direct current) in which the main elec- trical component known as electrons flow in only one direction from the negative pole (terminal) to the positive pole (terminal). In the DC electrical circuit there is an electrical principle at work which should always be taken into account when using any DC circuit.
  • Page 18 TIG WELDING GUIDE TIG Welding Fusion Technique Manual TIG welding is often considered the most difficult of all the welding process- es. Because the welder must maintain a short arc length, great care and skill are re- quired to prevent contact between the electrode and the workpiece. Similar to Oxy- gen Acetylene torch welding, Tig welding normally requires two hands and in most instances requires the welder to manually feed a filler wire into the weld pool with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.
  • Page 19 DC TIG WELDING GUIDE ARC63O Tungsten Electrodes Tungsten is a rare metallic element used for manufacturing TIG welding electrodes. The TIG process relies on tungsten’s hardness and high-temperature resistance to carry the welding current to the arc. Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal, 3,410 degrees Celsius.
  • Page 20 DC TIG WELDING GUIDE Tungsten Preparation Always use wheels when grinding and cutting. While tungsten is a very hard material, the surface of a DIAMOND diamond wheel is harder, and this makes for smooth grinding. Grinding without diamond wheels, such as aluminium oxide wheels, can lead to jagged edges, imperfections, or poor surface finishes not visible to the eye that will contrib- ute to weld inconsistency and weld defects.

    ARC-AIR GOUGING SET UP Select the CAG function with the MODE selector button. Connect the Arc Air Gouging torch lead to the Negative output terminal at the front of the machine and tighten it. Connect the air line to the air supply such as a compressor. Connect the earth lead to the Positive output terminal at the front of the machine and tighten it.
  • Page 23 ARC-AIR GOUGING SET UP An Arc Air Goging Torch is a good tool for heavy duty metal removal on a wide variety of jobs such as pressure ves- ARC63O sel shops, earth moving equipment, heavy machinery repairs and shipyards. (5) Slide back the insulating cover of the power block and connect a power lead cable to it, use minimum 50mm2 cable up to 10m in length, heavy cable is recommended for a longer power lead. Connect an air line to the air connection at the power block adapter. (6) Slide back the insulating cover. Rotate the jaw clamp so that the air holes are pointing in the direction you want to gouge. (8) Insert a DC gouging carbon into the jaw clamp. the carbon should not extend too far out otherwise the air flow will not meet with the arc gouging area at the end of the carbon to disperse the molten material. (6) Slide back the insulating cover (5) Slide back the insulating cover of the power block and connect a power lead cable to it.
  • Page 24: Arc-Air Gouging Guide

    ARC-AIR GOUGING GUIDE ARC-AIR GOUGING PROCESS Air Carbon-Arc Gouging (commonly referred to as Arc-Air Gouging) has been used since the early 1940’s when it was initially developed from the Carbon Arc Cutting process that was used to remove welds, rivet heads and cut metal while relying on gravity for removal of the molten material. The gouging process was further developed with the introduction of a jet of compressed air from behind and on the underside of the gouging carbon to remove the molten material. This compressed air was initially applied by a second operator directing an air gun towards the molten pool and was not very successful. With great ingenuity and further development, the Air Carbon-Arc Torch was designed whereby compressed air...
  • Page 25 ARC-AIR GOUGING GUIDE ARC63O Torch Head DC AIR CARBON ARC GOUGING Copper Coating Carbon Carbon Electrode DC (+) Clamp Air Flow @ 80psi Always underneath the Carbon Travel Direction Work Piece DC (-) The air jet orifice of the torch head clamp needs to be located underneath the electrode and facing towards the work end of the electrode with the air jet between the electrode and work piece. To avoid damage to the torch head a minimum ex- tension of the electrode should be no less than 45mm. Air pressure should range between 80 psi and 100 psi at the torch and the air supply hose requires and internal diameter of no less than 6.5mm. Single-phase machines with low open-circuit voltage are not suitable for air carbon arc gouging. Most three-phase weld- ing power sources of sufficient amperage output may be used for air arc gouging. The arc voltage required for air carbon arc gouging and cutting ranges from 35 to 56 volts, therefore the open-circuit voltage needs to be at least 60 volts. For...

    GAS FLOW REGULATORS - SHEILDING GASES ARC63O GAS FLOW REGULATORS The job of the gas flow regulator is to reduce the bottle pressure gas down to a lower pressure and deliver it at a constant flow. This constant flow of gas is usually fed through the welding machine where it is controlled by a solenoid valve, operated when the torch trigger is pulled.
