B-7 LEARNING T O WELD B-7 LEARNING T O WELD No one can learn to weld simply by reading about it. Skill comes only with practice. The following pages will help the inexperienced operator to understand welding and develop this skill. For more detailed infor- mation, order a copy of “ New Lessons in Arc Welding ” listed at the end of this manual. [...]

B-8 LEARNING T O WELD B-8 The “ arc stream ” is seen in the middle of the picture. This is the electric arc created by the electric current flowing through the space between the end of the wire electrode and the base metal. The temperature of this arc is about 6000 ° F, which is more than enough to melt metal. The arc is very bright, as well a[...]

B-9 LEARNING T O WELD B-9 WELD-PAK 3200HD For GMAW (MIG) Process 1. Is most of my welding performed on 16 gauge and lighter materials? 2. Can I afford the extra expense, space, and lack of portability required for gas cylinders and gas sup- ply? 3. Do I require clean, finished-looking welds? If you have answered yes to all the above questions GMAW [...]

B-10 LEARNING T O WELD B-10 WELD-PAK 3200HD FIGURE B.12 Penetration Unless a weld penetrates close to 100% of the metal thickness, a butt weld will be weaker than the material welded together. In the example shown in Figure B.13, the total weld is only half the thickness of the material thus the weld is only approximately half as strong as the meta[...]

B-1 1 LEARNING T O WELD B-1 1 WELD-PAK 3200HD FIGURE B.16 Vertical-down Welding Refer to Figure B.17 Vertical-down welds are applied at a fast pace. These welds are therefore shallow and narrow and, as such, are excellent for sheet metal. Vertical-down welds may be applied to 5/32 ” (3.9 mm) and lighter material. Use stringer beads and tip the gu[...]

B-12 LEARNING T O WELD B-12 WELD-PAK 3200HD ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. When using an open arc process, it Is necessary to use correct eye, head and body protection. Protect yourself and others, read “ ARC RAYS can burn ” at the front of this manual. 2. The Correct Way To Strike An Arc 1. Be sure the work clamp makes good electrical contac[...]

B-13 LEARNING T O WELD B-13 WELD-PAK 3200HD Helpful Hints 1. For general welding, it is not necessary to weave the arc, neither forward or backward nor sideways. Weld along at a steady pace. You will find it easier. 2. When welding on thin plate, you will find that you will have to increase the welding speed, whereas when welding on heavy plate, it[...]

See PROCESS GUIDELINES in the OPERATION section for selection of welding wire and shielding gas, and for range of metal thicknesses that can be welded. 2. See the Application Guide on the inside of wire feed section door for information on setting the controls[...]

B-15 LEARNING T O WELD B-15 WELD-PAK 3200HD FIGURE B.24 3. The Correct Electrical Stickout (ESO) The electrical stickout (ESO) is the distance from the end of the contact tip to the end of the wire. See Figure B.24. Once the arc has been established, maintaining the correct ESO becomes extremely important. The ESO should be approximately 3/8 to 1/2[...]

B-16 LEARNING T O WELD B-16 TROUBLESHOOTING WELDS Good welds have excellent appearance. To Eliminate Porosity (in order of importance): 1. Turn on gas supply, if used 2. Decrease voltage. 3. Increase stickout. 4. Increase WFS (wire feed speed). 5. Decrease drag angle. 6. Decrease travel speed. NOTE: Always be sure the joint is free from moisture, o[...]

B-17 LEARNING T O WELD B-17 Proper Gun Handling Most feeding problems are caused by improper han- dling of the gun cable or electrodes. 1. Do not kink or pull the gun around sharp corners 2. Keep the gun cable as straight as practical when welding. 3. Do not allow dolly wheels or trucks to run over the cables. 4. Keep the cable clean. 5. Innershiel[...]
