Shear / Arc Butt Welders
Coil Width: 24" to 84" (610 mm to 2135 mm)
Coil Thickness: Up to .325" (8.2 mm)
Applications:
Arc Welding is the most versatile of all strip welding processes. It is applicable to almost all ferrous and non-ferrous metals in a broach range of thicknesses and offers a wide selection of parameters to meet a precise requirement. It is often used when a butt-type joint is mandatory, and occasionally when a rollable weld is needed.
Description:
The most popular types of fusion (Arc) welding processes are:
1. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)
2. Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)
3. Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)
4. Plasma Arc Welding
In GTAW, an arc is drawn from a tungsten electrode in an envelope of shielding gas, melting and fusing the abutting edges as the torches travels along the abutted
In SAW, an arc is established between a mechanically fed filler wire and the base metal. A granular flux is used to shield the arc and interact with the molten metal, resulting in a high quality weld. Bead build-up often occurs and, if necessary, can be controlled as described in GMAW.
Taylor-Winfield offers a wide variety of fusion welding processes and machines including plasma arc and laser welding. Each application is evaluated carefully to assure selection of the most effective, practical and economical technique to meet the requirement.
