When you’re aiming for clean and successful welds, the way you initiate the arc plays an important role. In TIG welding (Gas tungsten arc welding –GTAW), getting off to the right start isn’t just about skill; it’s about choosing the right technique for the job. Today, we will compare tig welding ignition methods: scratch vs lift…
In simple terms you can’t use flux core welding method with aluminum so flux core wire for welding aluminum doesn’t exist and you will waste a lot of effort trying to find or weld aluminum using the flux core method. It is easy to see why this myth perpetuates. The flux core method holds a…
Le soudage est une technique essentielle dans la transformation de métal, permettant l’assemblage de pièces qui seraient autrement impossibles à créer. Le soudage consiste à chauffer les métaux afin de les fusionner et donc de créer une jointure permanente entre eux. Ce processus implique plusieurs éléments tels que la source de chaleur (arc électrique, flamme,…
Le soudage TIG, également connu sous le nom de soudage à l’arc sous gaz inerte, est une méthode de soudage qui utilise un arc électrique pour fondre les métaux à souder. Cette technique de soudage est largement utilisée dans les industries de l’aérospatiale, de l’automobile et de la fabrication de produits électroniques en raison de…
Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is a popular process requiring a lot of skill and expertise. It is commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. One often underused aspect of TIG welding is the use of a gas lens, which can play a crucial role in enhancing the…
It is possible to perform TIG welding without gas, although it require a certain amount of skill and even then can be problem. This gasless method that is used is usually referred to as Flux-cored TIG welding. In this article, we will focus on how you can TIG weld without using gas, discussing the process…
What is the Right Shielding Gas for Welding Aluminum? Controlling aluminium welds entails a variety of elements, including selecting the proper filler metal and shielding gas composition, as well as ensuring your power supply is properly set up to ensure quality welds as the end result. Inert Shielding Gases When deciding what is the right…
What is the best shielding gas for welding stainless steel? Welding stainless steel may be accomplished in a variety of methods, each requiring a particular shielding gas. We will examine the most popular stainless steel welding methods and determine which gas types is best for each. Properties of Stainless Steel Stainless steel has been used…
The Miller Syncrowave 210 TIG/MIG is one of those welders that seems to check practically all the boxes. As the title suggests it is almost the complete welder. An inverter welder with both AC and DC settings, it allows you to weld either as MIG, TIG or stick, with the additional benefit of being able…
What is the best shielding gas for welding mild steel? There are many different ways that you can choose to weld mild steel and with each arc process a different shielding gas is likely to be need. In this article we look at the most common processes used in welding mild steel and assess which…
