  • Page 25 Fabricator 181i 10. Arc Control (Inductance) The arc control operates in GMAW (MIG) mode only and is used to adjust the intensity of the welding arc. Lower arc control settings make the arc softer with less weld spatter. Higher arc control settings give a stronger driving arc which can increase weld penetration.

Fan on demand automatically switches the cooling fan off when it is not required. This has two main advantages; (1) to minimize power consumption, and (2) to minimise the amount of contaminants such as dust that are drawn into the power source.

    Fabricator 181i 3.11 Feed Roller Pressure Adjustment The pressure (top) roller applies pressure to the grooved feed roller via an adjustable pressure screw. These devices should be adjusted to a minimum pressure that will provide satisfactory WIREFEED without slippage. If slipping occurs, and inspection of the wire contact tip reveals no wear, distortion or burn back jam, the conduit liner should be checked for kinks and clogging by metal flakes and swarf.

This distance may vary depending on the type of joint that is being welded.
  • Page 44 Fabricator 181i Secondary Adjustable Variables These variables cause changes in primary adjustable variables which in turn cause the desired change in the bead formation. They are: 1.

  • Page 53 Fabricator 181i Joint Preparations In many cases, it will be possible to weld steel sections without any special preparation. For heavier sections and for repair work on castings, etc., it will be necessary to cut or grind an angle between the pieces being joined to ensure proper penetration of the weld metal and to produce sound joints.
  • Page 54 Fabricator 181i Place the work so that the direction of welding is across, rather than to or from, your body. The electrode holder lead should be clear of any obstruction so that you can move your arm freely along as the electrode burns down.
  • Page 55 Fabricator 181i Do not weave the electrode, but maintain a steady rate of travel along the joint sufficient to produce a well-formed bead. At first you may notice a tendency for undercut to form, but keeping the arc length short, the angle of the electrode at about 20º from vertical, and the rate of travel not too fast, will help eliminate this.

  • Page 58 Fabricator 181i Distortion Distortion in some degree is present in all forms of welding. In many cases it is so small that it is barely perceptible, but in other cases allowance has to be made before welding commences for the distortion that will subsequently occur.
  • Page 59 Fabricator 181i Overcoming Distortion Effects There are several methods of minimizing distortion effects. A. Peening This is done by hammering the weld while it is still hot. The weld metal is flattened slightly and because of this the tensile stresses are reduced a little. The effect of peening is relatively shallow, and is not advisable on the last layer.
