Page 17: Mig Welding Principles
MIG WELDING PRINCIPLES MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding allows you to fuse together two similar metals without altering the properties of the metal. A consumable wire electrode is continuously fed through the welding torch that is fitted with a concentric gas nozzle. the wire is connected to a high voltage supply which creates an electric arc between the electrode (the wire) and the workpiece. -
Page 18: Welding Without Gas
WELDING WITHOUT GAS 1. If using 0.9mm flux cored wire, connect the terminal as shown. • The earth cable (Thicker Lead) should be connected to the positive (Red) terminal. • The cable from torch (Thinner Lead) should be connected to the Negative (Black) terminal. -
