Welding cast iron steels

WELDING OF CAST IRON Cast iron is an extremely versatile material, used in thousands of industrial products. It is hard, wear-resistant, and relatively inexpensive. Like steel, it is available in many different grades and compositions. While we usually think of cast iron as being brittle (having low ductility), this is not true of all cast irons, as we shall see shortly. Cast iron, like steel, is an iron-carbon alloy. In composition and structure, and in some of its properties, it is quite different from steel. While many grades of cast […]

Welding Cast Iron

Guidelines for Welding Cast Iron Tips and Techniques SOURCE: Lincoln Electric Guidelines for Welding Cast Iron Background Cast iron is difficult, but not impossible, to weld. In most cases, welding on cast iron involves repairs to castings, not joining casting to other members. The repairs may be made in the foundry where the castings are produced, or may be made to repair casting defects that are discovered after the part is machined. Mis-machined cast iron parts may require repair welding, such as when holes are drilled in the wrong location. […]

Pulse welding – Mig pulsed welder

  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 […]

Explain welding

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 […]
