[ 𝗔𝗟𝗨𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗨𝗠 & 𝗧𝗜𝗚 𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 ] - Because a video is more explicit than a static image: watch the automated welding of aluminium tubes using a MW closed TIG-GTAW welding head 💫 Aluminium welding is a complex process that requires knowledge, skill, preparation and experience to produce defect-free results. Trickier than steel welding, with aluminium there is a fine line between no penetration and blowing holes 🤯 This is due to the wonderful combination of a low melting point and high heat conductivity. What you can see: 📊  Specs: The video captures the autogenous welding on a 5000 series aluminium alloy, 48mm in diameter and 0.89 mm thick, specifically for a high-flying aerospace project! ✈️🚀 🛠 Welding head: MW115 is controlled by an AC/DC Smart Welding Station with appropriate WPS and setup all made by Polysoude SAS Did you know: It's almost impossible to buy plain aluminium! 😳🧐 It tends to be supplied as an alloy: a good thing as mixing the aluminium with other things makes it a more useful material. The alloys have a 4 digit identification number. 5000 series alloys contain a bit of Magnesium. For example, in manual welding, the wire you can get will tend to be a 4000 series alloy (containing a little Silicon). #automatedwelding #orbitalwelding #aluminiumwelding #cladding #theartofwelding

[ 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗗𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗗 ] – Weld overlay machines for premium results 🥇 Did you know? 💡 Weld overlay cladding is a reliable technique to protect fittings like pipes, valves, and flanges in harsh environments. This method is crucial in industries where service conditions require corrosion resistance. It ensures a durable, metallurgically-bonded protective layer that remains intact. This technique is employed to enhance the performance of materials giving them properties such as resistance against corrosion and wear to a particular substrate, enhancing the estimated life and durability of equipment. For fields that are highly acidic or "sour" all assets exposed to wellbore hydrocarbons such as valves, wellheads, Xmas trees, manifolds and hangers require to be protected. Speed: Up to 8000mm/min wire deposition 🚀 with our TIGer process and exclusive hot-wire dual-cathode welding torch!   #theartofwelding #theartofcladding #automatedwelding #weldingautomation #GTAW #weldingmachine

[ 𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗙 𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗 ] – Did you know that in plasma arc welding (PAW), the 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗺𝗮 𝗴𝗮𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝘁; 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁! As the plasma exits the torch’s nozzle, it reaches a speed that’s 𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 (𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝟭). The combination of both heat and speed allow the plasma to melt most materials, including aluminium, copper, all kind of steel, brass, iron and more. PAW allows to weld thicknesses from 2 to 8mm (#StainlessSteel, #Duplexsteel, #Superduplex, carbon steel) in one pass at speed from 200 to 500mm/min (depending on the thickness). Facts about Plasma Arc Welding: ♨️ Plasma arc can reach up to 28.000 °C (50.000 °F) 👨🏻🏭 Process was invented in the 1950s for cutting thin and thick metals alike 💯 Welding with #PAW requires no specific preparation ☄️ Plasma is actually gas and not a liquid as some people assume Polysoude S.A.S manufactures high-quality Plasma Welding equipment such as seam welders, column & boom and positioner, carriage type weld heads and more!
