Q

First reaction?

A

Oxygen and acetylene react to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Occurs near the tip of the torch and generates intense heat

Q

Second stage?

A

Combustion of CO and H2 and occurs just beyond the first combustion zone. Second stage produces a flame having two distinct regions, a light blue inner cone and a darker blue outer cone.

Q

Neutral flame.

A

More oxygen to acetylene. Most welding is done with a neutral flame, less chemical effect

Q

Oxidizing flame

A

A higher ratio of oxygen produces an oxidizing flame, usually has a crackling sound. Flame temperature is not that great.

Q

Fluxes

A

Can be used to clean surfaces and remove contaminating oxide. Gaseous shield from flux can prevent further oxidation.

16
Q

Pressure gas welding

A

Uses a gas flame and then forces together the materials. This is a form of solid state welding. Coalescences is produced by pressure.

17
Q

Arc

A

A concentrated heat source that can produce temperatures that’s re very high.

18
Q

Electrodes

A

Carbon rod is one electrode, the work piece is the other.

19
Q

Direct current electrode negative or straight polarity

A

The electrode is made negative and direct current is used. Fast melting of electrode and a shallow molten pool

20
Q

Direct current electrode positive or reverse polarity

A

The work is made negative and the electrode positive. Metal deposition is lower, but deeper penetration happens.

21
Q

Alternating currents and variable polarity

A

Alternates between dcen and dcep.

22
Q

Consumable electrode processes

A

In one group of arc welding processes the electrode is consumed. No metal is needed to fill.

23
Q

No consumable electrode processes

A

A tungsten or carbon electrode is used, but not consumed, except by slow vaporization. A delegate metal wire is required to supply filler metal.

24
Q

Types of consumable arc welding

A

Shielded metal arc welding and gas metal arc welding

25
Q

Shielded metal arc welding or stick welding

A

Versatile and low cost.

26
Q

Shielded metal arc welding contains a wire with a coating that does:

A

Vaporize to protect the atmosphere. Provides ionized elements to stabilize the arc. Act as a flux to deodorize and remove impurities. Provide a protective slag to accumulate purities. Add alloying elements for strength. Add additional fillers. Affect arc penetration. Influence shape of weld bead.

27
Q

How to shielded metal:

A

Operator touches the electrode to the workpiece and raises it to a stable state

28
Q

Best used for what materials: shielded metal welding

A

Ferrous metals: carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, and cast irons.

29
Q

Gas metal arc welding

A

The electrode becomes uncoated, no flux is needed. Shielding is provided by the gas, no Slags or fluxes needed. Can be used for all metals.

30
Q

Shielding gases for gas arc welding?

A

Have an effect on stability. Helium produces hottest arc and deepest penetration. CO2 is the opposite. Argon is heavier and requires lower flow rates. Helium is light and requires higher flow rates.

31
Q

Pros of gas welding?

A

Fast and economical. Accounts for more than half of all weld metal deposition.

32
Q

Advanced gas welding

A

Uses a second power source to preheat the filler metal

33
Q

Gas tungsten arc welding knoe as he liard welding. Nonconsumable.

A

A nonconsumable electrode provides the arc but not the filler metal. Inert gas flows through the electrode holder to provide a shield.

34
Q

Gas tungsten welding pros?

A

Most versatile of arc welding processes. No cleaning or slag must be removed. Many common metals and alloys can be welded.

35
Q

Gas tungsten cons

A

Costs more and is slower, but produces a high quality weld.
