Currently, no construction site is complete without the welding process, so it is natural that welding equipment is constantly in high demand. Today there are a large number of different welding methods.
This is the use of electrodes or graphite rods that carry out an electric current well, and the use of a special welding wire, which is made using a hot rolling method.
The market is currently a very large selection of welding equipment. For example, ESAB welding equipment is presented both in the standard version and in the form of automated complexes.
The welding machines of this company can be programmed in accordance with the wishes or specific requirements. ESAB welding current sources are developed and manufactured taking into account the newest welding technologies. Due to this, their weight is 80 times less than welding equipment manufactured 70 years ago.
As the main types of welding equipment, it is necessary to consider manually welding with electrodes of various diameters, as well as for argon-fiber welding using non-melting electrodes.
Also produced equipment for welding in which the electrode melts. In this case, various fluxes are used. There are special machines designed to produce contact-point welding.
It is believed that for welding non -ferrous and ferrous metals, direct current welding rectifiers are best suited, which are equipped with melting electrodes. Their main difference is the complexity of the design and the high cost. In the process of their use, part of the power is lost, but a stable arc is formed. As a rule, such equipment is intended for professional use.
For household purposes, it is best to use simpler and lighter models, for example, such as semi -automatic welding devices using an inert gas environment. This kind of welding equipment is in high demand among employees of car service enterprises at which body work is carried out. During the installation of metal structures, it is best to use a reliable welding inverter.
