Portable, Powerful Wire Feeder Welder for Multiple Processes and Materials
This new technology offers the industry?s highest efficiency rating at 88 percent at 250A with a 0.97 power factor and enables weld data to be monitored in a durable and rugged case for harsh environments.
MULTI-PURPOSE WELDING POWER SOURCE
Exceptionally easy to use and control, the MTS 3500i is a multi-process, fourth generation inverter power source that combines reliability with a powerful, versatile package that offers excellent welding capabilities for MIG, TIG or Stick welding.
NEW HORNET FLUX-CORED WELDING WIRE
For welding applications that demand excellent weld penetration, high productivity rates and good low temperature impact strength, this general fabrication welding wire for mild or low alloy steels can be used in all positions with either 100 percent CO2 or a 75 percent Ar/25 percent CO2 shielding gas mixture.
HOW DOES WELDING AFFECT THE HAZ OF THE WELD'
Based upon the particular aluminum alloy type and its temper, the tensile strength of the HAZ can be significantly different from the tensile strength of the unaffected area of the welded component. However, the reduction in tensile strength of the HAZ under controlled conditions, particularly with the non-heat treatable alloys, can be somewhat predictable.
PULSED TIG DOUBLES PRODUCTION WITHOUT MORE STAFF OR EQUIPMENT
At a time when prices have left many businesses hamstrung, replacing conventional TIG welding with new inverter technology enabled employees to reduce production costs and remain competitive.
STICK ELECTRODE SIMPLIFIES INVENTORY, WELDING PROCESSES
A newly design stick electrode reduced this diversified fabricator?s stocking level, simplified their weld procedures, and saves them time in production.
MULTIPLE-WIRE WELDING CREATES HIGH PRODUCTIVITY, HIGH QUALITY
Innovative welding systems, including a continuous seam tacking system and ID and OD pipe welding stations that use multiple wire welding techniques, combine to produce faster travel speeds and improve the mechanical properties of the linepipe being manufactured by Berg Steel.
RESISTANCE: THE UNKNOWN WELDING VARIABLE
When unintended resistance is introduced into the welding circuit, it can lead to equipment failure, poor weld quality, porosity, the inability to weld to specification and the frustration of trying to diagnose an intermittent problem. Here?s how to prevent it from happening.
Safety in Gas Welding & Cutting – Using Caution with Gases Can Save Lives
Gas welding, cutting and heating apparatus are extremely useful tools for a variety of work and hobby applications. But Paul Mercuri of ESAB explains why any procedure that uses oxygen or other flammable gases in the presence of flame carries significant risks. He warns that every worker, from beginner to seasoned professional, needs to be constantly mindful of safety precautions.
TROUBLESHOOTING MIG BEFORE AND AFTER YOU WELD
MIG welding equipment that starts acting differently can be confusing. Here are some answers on how to solve them the most common equipment and technique issues that crop up.
DISTORTION IN ALUMINUM WELDMENTS
When replacing distorted steel with aluminum on a complex fabricated structure, consider the amount of distortion to be expected with aluminum and how that can be prevented.
