Wire feed calibration - MIG Welding Forum
Mar 22, 2023 · Hi I’m new to Mig welding. My welder wire feed speed ranges from 2-11 m/m, then I’ve seen some welders calibrations read differently like 165, can someone tell me what 165 means? Also when I’m tacking or even running a bead at the end I release the trigger but the machine feeds out about 20 mm of wire which is rather annoying when trying ...

Jul 24, 2017 · Welding it in two halves (0>180 degrees) will be much easier if it is Tig or stick welded. That will also give you a better chance of getting a better metallurgical match for the two materials, ie 309LSi or 312 stainless filler for example without it costing a …

Jan 12, 2024 · It is not inrush current. At full output current, your welder draws 30.9A but it is not continuous. There is a standard calculation used to determine the "average" mains current that takes into account the duty cycle of the machine (and other things).
Burnback control - MIG Welding Forum
Jul 29, 2005 · For the last too long the jobs i work on with mig, its mainly 3-5mm thickness steel, mostly 2-6" welds and stiches, hundreds of them, totalling up to god knows how many meters a day. I have it set so that it simply stops the wire sticking into the puddle as it freezes at the end of a weld leaving hardly any sort of blob on the wire for a nice ...
Novice blowing holes in old metal - MIG Welding Forum
Feb 11, 2023 · I learned mig welding on an old car I was rebuilding. It was a steep learning curve, and wasted lots of time and effort. I should have done as everybody says here, practise on the bench. And don't be afraid to adjust your settings either. I laboured on for ages with too much wire speed, for some reason I can't even remember now.
Mig welding outside
Dec 11, 2016 · I mig Aluminium outside all the time and can be a right PITA at times.
