  • Page 29: Ac Welding

    Functional characteristics TIG welding 5.1.6 AC welding The welding of aluminium and aluminium alloys is made possible by the periodic change of polarity on the tungsten electrode. The negative pole (negative half-wave) of the tungsten electrode determines the penetration characteris- tics and has a lower electrode load compared to the positive half-wave.
  • Page 30: Tungsten Balling Function

    Functional characteristics TIG welding 5.1.6.2 Tungsten balling function The tungsten balling function achieves an optimal balled end enabling the best ignition and welding re- sults for AC welding. Optimal tungsten balling requires a sharpened electrode (about 15–25 °) and the set electrode diameter on the machine control.
  • Page 31: Ac Balance (Optimise Cleaning Effect And Penetration Characteristics)

    Functional characteristics TIG welding 5.1.6.3 AC balance (optimise cleaning effect and penetration characteristics) It is important to choose the right time relationship (balance) between the positive phase (cleaning effect, balled end size) and the negative phase (penetration depth). This may differ from the factory setting de- pending on the material and task.
  • Page 32: Automatic Ac Frequency

    Functional characteristics TIG welding 5.1.6.5 Automatic AC frequency Activation takes place in the functional sequence using the parameter frequency .

  • Page 33: Ac Commutation Optimisation

    Functional characteristics TIG welding 5.1.6.6 AC commutation optimisation With AC welding, a periodic change between positive and negative half-wave takes place. This pole change is called commutation. External influences such as low-alloy aluminium materials (such as Al 99.5) or gases that are difficult to ionize (Ar/He mixtures) may compromise the commutation and lead to lower arc stability and higher noise levels.

  • Page 41: Tig Activarc Welding

    5.1.9 TIG activArc welding The EWM activArc process, thanks to the highly dynamic controller system, ensures that the power sup- plied is kept virtually constant in the event of changes in the distance between the welding torch and the weld pool, e.g. during manual welding. Voltage losses as a result of a shortening of the distance between the torch and molten pool are compensated by a current rise (ampere per volt - A/V), and vice versa.
