Pulse welding – Mig pulsed welder

Mig Welding Articles

  Pulsed MIG May Solve Aluminum Fabrication Problems — Q&A Q: What’s the difference between spray transfer and pulsed spray transfer? A: Pulsed spray transfer, commonly called pulsed MIG, puts less heat into the work yet maintains many benefits of spray transfer, such as good fusion, high deposition rates and/or fast travel speeds. In pulsed spray transfer, the power source switches between a high peak current and a low background current. The peak current pinches off a spray transfer droplet and propels it toward the weldment. The background current maintains […]

Buying a welder, Impossible questions

Explain welding? Easy and hard so lets start with the easy. Welding is simply the melting of two adjacent metalic surfaces together such that the molecular structure of each piece intertwines as if it were one contiguous piece of metal. Well that is accoring to Poindexter, at a macro level it is simply melting two bits of metal together. On a more complex level welding then breaks into categories based on the type of process, be it TIG, Mig, Arc or Plasma welding. They all do the same as mentioned […]
