  • Page 15: Wire Feed Roller Selection

    WIRE FEED ROLLER SELECTION The importance of smooth consistent wire feeding during MIG welding cannot be emphasized enough. Simply put the smoother the wire feed then the better the welding will be. Feed rollers or drive rollers are used to feed the wire mechanically along the length of the welding gun. Feed rollers are designed to be used for certain types of welding wire and they have different types of grooves machined in them to accommodate the different types of wire.
  • Page 16: Wire Installation & Set Up Guide

    WIRE INSTALLATION & SET UP GUIDE Again the importance of smooth consistent wire feeding during MIG welding cannot be emphasized enough. The correct installation of the wire spool and the wire into the wire feed unit is critical to achieving an even and consistent wire feed. A high percentage of faults with MIG welders emanate from poor set up of the wire into the wire feeder.

  • Page 20: Mig Welding Guide

    MIG WELDING GUIDE MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Definition of MIG Welding - MIG (metal inert gas) welding also known as GMAW (gas metal arc welding) or MAG (metal active gas welding), is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun.
  • Page 21 MIG WELDING GUIDE MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Short Circuit Transfer - Short circuit transfer is the most common used method whereby the wire electrode is fed continuously down the welding torch through to and exiting the contact tip. The wire touches the work piece and causes a short circuit the wire heats up and begins to form a molten bead, the bead separates from the end of the wire and forms a droplet that is transferred into the weld pool.
  • Page 22 MIG WELDING GUIDE Basic MIG Welding Good weld quality and weld profile depends on gun angle, direction of travel, electrode extension (stick out), travel speed, thickness of base metal, wire feed speed (amperage) and arc voltage. To follow are some basic guides to assist with your setup. Gun Position - Travel Direction, Work Angle Gun position or technique usually refers to how the wire is directed at the base metal, the angle and travel direction chosen.
  • Page 23 MIG WELDING GUIDE Travel Angle Travel angle is the right to left angle relative to the direction of welding. A travel angle of 5°- 15° is ideal and produces a good level of control over the weld pool. A travel angle greater that 20° will give an unstable arc condition with poor weld metal transfer, less penetration, high levels of spatter, poor gas shield and poor quality finished weld.
  • Page 24 MIG WELDING GUIDE Travel Speed Travel speed is the rate that the gun is moved along the weld joint and is usually measured in mm per minute. Travel speeds can vary depending on conditions and the welders skill and is limited to the welders ability to control the weld pool. Push technique allows faster travel speeds than Drag technique.
  • Page 25 MIG WELDING GUIDE Wire types and sizes Use the correct wire type for the base metal being welded. Use stainless steel wire for stainless steel, aluminium wires for aluminium and steel wires for steel. Use a smaller diameter wire for thin base metals. For thicker materials use a larger wire diameter and larger machine, check the recommended welding capability of you machine.
  • Page 26: Spool Gun Setup

    SPOOL GUN SETUP 1. Switch on the machine, select the MIG function with the MIG/MMA selector switch. 2. Select Spool Gun using the Standard/Spool Gun selector switch. 3. Connect the Spool Gun to the Euro Mig torch connection socket on the front panel, and tighten it. Connect the Spool Gun control cable to the receptacle and tighten it.

    LIFT ARC DC TIG WELDING SETUP 1. Switch on the machine, select the TIG function with the TIG/MMA/Mig selector switch. 2. Insert the power cable plug of the TIG torch into the Negative socket on the front of the machine and tighten it. 3.
  • Page 29: Lift Arc Dc Tig Operation

    LIFT ARC DC TIG OPERATION Lift Arc ignition allows the arc to be started easily in DC TIG by simply touching the tungsten to the work piece and lifting it up to start the arc. This prevents the tungsten tip sticking to the work piece and breaking the tip from the tungsten electrode.
  • Page 30: Dc Tig Welding Guide

    DC TIG WELDING GUIDE DC TIG WELDING The DC power source uses what is known as DC (direct current) in which the main electrical component known as electrons flow in only one direction from the negative pole (terminal) to the positive pole (terminal).
  • Page 31 DC TIG WELDING GUIDE TIG WELDING FUSION TECHNIQUE Manual TIG welding is often considered the most difficult of all the welding processes. Because the welder must maintain a short arc length, great care and skill are required to prevent contact between the electrode and the workpiece.
  • Page 32 DC TIG WELDING GUIDE TUNGSTEN ELECTRODES Tungsten is a rare metallic element used for manufacturing TIG welding electrodes. The TIG process relies on tungsten’s hardness and high-temperature resistance to carry the welding current to the arc. Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal, 3,410 degrees Celsius. Tungsten electrodes are non-consumable and come in a variety of sizes, they are made from pure tungsten or an alloy of tungsten and other rare earth elements.

    MMA (STICK) WELDING SET UP 1. Turn the power source on and select the MMA function with the MIG/ MMA selector switch. 2. Connection of Output Cables Two sockets are available on this welding machine. For MMA welding the electrode holder is shown be connected to the positive socket, while the earth lead (work piece) is connected to the negative socket, this is known as DC+ polarity.
  • Page 35: Mma (Stick) Welding Guide

    MMA (STICK) WELDING GUIDE MMA (MANUAL METAL ARC) WELDING One of the most common types of arc welding is manual metal arc welding (MMA) or MMA welding. An electric current is used to strike an arc between the base material and a consumable electrode rod or ‘stick’. The electrode rod is made of a material that is compatible with the base material being welded and is covered with a flux that gives off gaseous vapours that serve as a shielding gas and providing a layer of slag, both of which protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination.
  • Page 36 MMA (STICK) WELDING GUIDE MMA (STICK) WELDING FUNDAMENTALS ELECTRODE SELECTION As a general rule, the selection of an electrode is straight forward,in that it is only a matter of selecting an electrode of similar composition to the parent metal. However, for some metals there is a choice of several electrodes, each of which has particular properties to suit specific classes of work. It is recommend to consult your welding supplier for the correct selection of electrode.
