Different types of welding machines you should be aware of

Page 1


Welding machines are provided with a high gripping power and are widely in demand due to their high precision, durability and strength. Owing to their high gripping strength, these machines are best suited for mild steel, low carbon steel, alloy steel etc. Driven by challenges and innovation to give the best performance, welding machines are highly energy-efficient and easy to operate. Tools like welding machines are worth purchasing, because they can prove to be useful at any point of time. There are a number of options for welding machines online. You can buy welding tools from a wide range available based on the type and requirement. There is a huge assortment of welding accessories that can be selected—ranging from MIG welders, TIG welders and spot welders to oxyacetylene welders. There are also several other high-end welding equipment that are relatively more expensive in comparison with the more common TIG and MIG welding. The welding machine price basically varies depending on the type of machine, model, brand and the purpose for which it is used.

TIG welding refers to tungsten inert gas welding. Strong and reactive metals like magnesium and aluminum can be joined together with this process and welding is done manually. TIG welding is best suited for joining thin metals. On the other hand, MIG welding stands for metal inert gas and the welding relies on a constant stream of shielding gas which help in protecting the weld from contamination.


At the same time arc welding machine makes use of inexpensive equipment and requires electric current for its operations. It is generally the fastest and most precise mode of welding. FCAW or Flux Cored Gas Welding requires wire fed welding machines. In this process, the metal is heated, melted and then joined to get a perfect weld. This method requires a constant supply of electric power and welding can be done even through portable welding machines. FCAW welding is generally used for stainless steel or rusty metals and is best suited for the construction industry. Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) is a highly efficient and most productive automated welding method which is suitable from mild steel to high strength steels.


You can access the nature of the metal, establish the ideal amperage, choose an ideal site for welding, refer to the specs sheet, analyze the compressed gas requirements and accordingly choose the best welding machine. It is essential to use the right type of welding machine in order to fuse two types of materials together or else you may not get the appropriate result. It is also important to know the purpose for which the machine is going to be used. It would then be easier to choose the right type of welding machine, the power supply needed and what other tools and accessories might be required with the welding machine. Welding helmet, welding gloves, goggles etc also hold immense importance in providing proper safety at the time of welding. Thus, the welding machines are definitely important and need to be bought and used with great care.
