    Installation & Operation for ARC (Stick) Welding for Pro.Point 145 & 180 Connection of Output Cables Two sockets are available on this welding machine. For ARC welding the electrode holder is shown be connected to the negative socket, while the earth lead (work piece) is connected to the positive socket, this is known as DC- polarity.

  • Page 11: Arc (Stick) Welding Information

    ARC (Stick) Welding Information ARC Welding One of the most common types of arc welding is manual metal arc welding (MMA) or stick welding. An electric cur- rent 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 12 ARC 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.

  • Page 15: Wire Feed Drive Roller Selection

    Wire Feed Roller Selection for Pro.Point 145 & 180 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.

  • Page 24 BASIC 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 weld- ing gun.
  • Page 25 BASIC 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 26: Basic Mig Welding Guide

    BASIC MIG WELDING GUIDE 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 27 BASIC 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°...
  • Page 28 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 29 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.

(2) Connect earth lead to Positive (3) Connect weld power lead to Negative (4) Turn the power source on and select the TIG function with the MIG/TIG/MMA selector switch.
  • Page 31 LIFT ARC DC TIP Operatiom for Pro.Point for 145 & 180 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 32: Tig Fusion Technique

    TIG WELDING FUSION TECHNIQUES 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. Similar to Oxygen Acetylene torch welding, Tig welding normally requires two hands and in most instances requires the welder to manually feed a filler wire into the weld pool with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.

  • Page 33: Tungsten Electrodes & Preparation

    Tungsten Electrodes Tungsten is a rare metallic element used for manufacturing TIG welding electrodes. The TIG process relies on tung- sten’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 nonconsumable and come in a variety of sizes, they are made from pure tungsten or an al- loy of tungsten and other rare earth elements.

  • Page 34: Tungsten Preparation

    Tungsten Preparation Always use wheels when grinding and cutting. While tungsten is a very hard material, the surface of a DIAMOND diamond wheel is harder, and this makes for smooth grinding. Grinding without diamond wheels, such as aluminium oxide wheels, can lead to jagged edges, imperfections, or poor surface finishes not visible to the eye that will contrib- ute to weld inconsistency and weld defects.
