Laser Applications
Laser Supply Systems The purchase of laser cutting or welding systems represents a substantial financial commitment by a metal fabricator. To help maximize the return on investment, special consideration must be given when selecting the resonator gases (He, N2 and CO2), the assist gases (N2 and O2), and the high integrity gas supply system. Essential factors to be considered include the selection of gas type (gas purity and mixture accuracy see Section 3), supply mode (flow capacity, delivery pressure requirements, etc.), and design of the gas regulation and distribution equipment (see Section 6 for details). Praxairs LaserStar Gases and Blends For Optimum Laser Perf o rmance Praxairs LaserStar gases are produced to meet the stringent requirements of the laser processing industry. Available as pure gases or as pre-blended mixtures of helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and occasionally, carbon monoxide, Praxairs LaserStar gases are used to optimize the laser beam quality in a wide variety of CO2 lasers. Carbon dioxide lasers must be protected from the problems created by contaminants such as moisture, hydrocarbons, and other impurities which can be introduced into the resonator chamber. These impurities can reduce laser power, create unstable operating characteristics, damage expensive optics, and cause costly downtime. When combined with a properly designed gas delivery system, the use of LaserStar gases helps assure optimum laser perf o rmance, maximum operating duty cycle, and minimum maintenance costs. In laser gases, carbon dioxide is the component of the gas blend that is directly involved in producing the laser light.
1 5
Nitrogen makes it easier to excite the CO2 molecule to the higher energy levels necessary to produce laser light. Heliums high thermal conductivity acts to cool the laser by conducting heat away from the electrical discharge area to the walls of the discharge tube; helium also stabilizes this electric discharge and improves laser perf o rm a n c e . Supply Modes From resonator gases to assist gases, welding and cutting operations can be optimized when proper care is exercised in the design and selection of the gas supply system. Praxair offers a variety of supply modes that will meet your specific needs:

High Pressure Cylinders (component or pre-mixed gases) High Pressure Cylinder Clusters (6, 12 or 18 cylinders) Bulk Tanks (nitrogen and oxygen) Bulk Tanks with Cryogenic Booster On-Site Nitrogen Generation and Air Drying
Gas Regulation and Distribution System Design To further enhance laser equipment perf o rmance, high quality regulation and distribution equipment systems is re commended. These specially designed systems offer the following advantages:

Help to maintain gas purity and gas mixture integrity (to the use point) Contribute to precise pressure and flow control Provide uninterrupted gas supply Make the operation safe and easy to use Decrease the frequency of periodic laser maintenance Lower power levels Improved beam quality

Dry Ice Blast Cleaning
Blast cleaning with carbon dioxide dry ice is an environmentally safe way to prepare surfaces or remove coatings, saving time and money for an ever-growing list of businesses. Developed by the aircraft industry to clean everything from electrical components to petroleum waste, blast cleaning uses compressed air to propel dry ice particles that create an impact flushing action. These particles expand on contact and sublimate into vapor CO 2, leaving behind a clean, dry, undamaged surface. Its Safe Dry ice blast cleaning protects surface integrity and avoids grit entrapment, making it an effective alternative to abrasive grit blasting. Theres also no residue or secondary waste to clean, so you can use it with food processing equipment. Eliminating toxic chemicals and harmful emissions makes dry ice blast cleaning environmentally safe, and it reduces employee health risks. Its also:

GT-Pak Natural Gas Pressure Booster Systems
Now, Praxair enables metal fabricators to take advantage of the many benefits of natural gas for torch cutting, brazing, soldering and heating applications. From savings and performance to convenience and safety, natural gas is an alternative to acetylene, propane and other fuel gases. And the GT-Pak systems from G-TEC Natural Gas Systems give you the state-of-the-art technology that makes it all possible. The GT-Pak system elevates the pressure of utility natural gas service to levels required for efficient operation of cutting and brazing torches - right from the gas line servicing your building. Plus, the refuelers allow you to fill your own portable natural gas cylinders for hand truck and off-site use. Proven for a Variety of Applications
Thousands of metal fabricators around the world are using the innovative GT-Pak systems for a wide variety of torch applications including:

Fabricated Metals Industrial Equipment Muffler/Automotive Repair Plumbing/HVAC
Save as Much as 90% on Fuel Costs The most significant benefit of using natural gas as a torch fuel is its lower cost. Natural gas provides an average 20-to-1 price advantage over acetylene and a 5-to-1 advantage over propane. Never Run Out of Fuel Gas Customers tell us that having a self-sufficient fuel gas supply is a major benefit of GT-Pak systems. They operate on a simple connection to the standard low-pressure natural gas line service commonly used to operate building space heaters and hot water tanks.
Count on Excellent Performance Natural gas offers excellent performance for torch cutting, heating, brazing and soldering. Advantages of using the GT-Pak system and natural gas include:

Cutting speeds comparable to acetylene and propane. Can cut steel from 1/8 to 18. Clean, narrow kerfs with less of a tendency to form slag or harden the cut edge. Smoother, less porous brazing. No smoke generated by torches and no carbon soot, for cleaner work.
Safety Safety is another inherent advantage of natural gas and the GT-Pak system. Natural gas:

Is stable, non-shock sensitive and non-toxic. Is lighter than air, so it quickly dissipates rather than accumulating in low areas like other heavier fuel gases. Has the highest ignition temperature and the narrowest band of combustibility when compared to other fuel gases.
Safety Approved in the United States and Canada GT-Pak torch boosters and refuelers have received the Certificate of Compliance from CSA International, signifying that they have passed rigorous tests and meet industry standards for construction, performance and safety.

General Safety Information
While moving full or empty cylinders:

2 1
Opening and Closing Valves Observing a few simple rules when opening and closing valves can prevent damage to valves and equipment and add years of useful service life to the valves. The proper way to open any cylinder valve is to first crack the valve, then open it slowly by turning the handle or stem counterclockwise (see Figure 1). This allows equipment to gradually adjust to full pressure. Stop turning as soon as there is any resistance. Turning the valve handle or stem too far in the open position can jam the stem causing damage and leaks and preventing later closure. Likewise, overtightening when closing a valve can damage or perm anently distort the seat and result in leakage.
Always use carts or hand trucks designed for this purpose. Never drop cylinders or allow them to strike each other violently. Never lift cylinders by the cap or with a lifting magnet.
Moving Cylinders and Containers Cylinders and containers must always be moved carefully. Mishandling that results in a damaged valve or ru p t u re d cylinder can expose personnel to the hazards associated with these gases. In addition, most gas cylinders are heavy and bulky. A cylinder striking someone or pinching a finger, toe, or other extremity is a common cause of injury. For these reasons, all cylinder handlers must always wear certain minimum personal protective equipment prescribed by OSHA.

After moving a cylinder to its point of use, secure the cylinder in place. Use cylinder stands, clamps, or other securing devices recommended by your supplier. Storing Cylinders and Containers Storage of compressed gas cylinders and cryogenic liquid cylinders is governed by codes of the National Fire P rotection Association (NFPA). Local codes may also apply. Know and obey codes governing storage at your location. Safe Practices In general, store cylinders so they cant be easily toppled over. Remember, danger exists not only from accidental release of gas by cylinders damaged in a fall but also from their striking someone and causing injury. Store cylinders upright in compact groups, interlocking them so that each cylinder physically contacts those around it. Do not stand cylinders loosely or in a haphazard manner. A single cylinder that topples over can create a domino effect causing other cylinders to fall. Single cylinders should be secured in place or on a cylinder cart so they cant be easily knocked over. Keep stored cylinders out of high traffic areas. Do not store them near the edges of platforms. Avoid storage in areas where there are activities that could damage or contaminate the cylinders. Electric arc welding can destroy the integrity of cylinder metal if a welder carelessly strikes an arc on a cylinder. Overhead hoists can drip oil or grease on cylinders, contaminating them. Never store cylinders with flammable materials.
F i g u re1
Gloves to protect hands against common pinching injuries. Safety glasses to protect eyes against injuries associated with pressure release. Safety shoes with metatarsal supports to protect against foot injuries from falling cylinders.
Open counterclockwise
Before moving the cylinder to the storage area or point of use or before re t u rning the cylinder to the supplier, ensure the following: The outlet valve is fully closed. The outlet valve dust plug or pressure cap is on tight for cylinders equipped with these protection devices (where supplied) . The valve protection cap is properly secured in place on cylinders with neck threads (where supplied). Note: Valve caps must always be in place while moving or transporting cylinders or when they are in storage.

Close clockwise

Personnel responsible for receiving cylinders should perf o rm an external inspection on all packages before moving them to the point of use or to the storage area. Basic guidelines for performing this inspection are as follows:
Read the cylinder labels to be sure that the gas is what you ordered and that you understand the hazards associated with the product. Remember, the label is the only means of identifying the product in the cylinder. Never identify the product by the color of the cylinder. A secondary check of contents may be made by using the CGA connection on the valve (see Table 1). Check the TC/DOT cylinder markings to be sure you understand the pressures contained in the cylinders. Thoroughly inspect the cylinders for any obvious damage. The cylinder s u rface should be clean and free from defects such as cuts, gouges, b u rns and obvious dents. Such damage could weaken the cylinder metal, creating a danger of failure, or it could make the cylinder unstable and more likely to tip over. Make sure the cylinder stands steady on its base and does not wobble. Cylinders with neck threads should have a cap in place over the valve. Remove the cap by hand. Never use a screwdriver, crowbar, or other leverage device to remove the cap. Never oil or lubricate a tight fitting cap. You could accidentally open the valve or damage it.

Check the cylinder valve to be sure it is not bent or damaged. A damaged valve could leak or fail, or it might not make a tight connection when the cylinder is placed into use. Make sure the valve is free from dirt and oil, which could contaminate the gas. Dirt particles propelled in a high velocity gas stream could cause a spark, igniting a flammable gas. Oil and grease can react with oxygen and other oxidizers, causing an explosion. If any cylinder is received with missing or unreadable labels and markings; visible damage; an unstable base; a missing cap; or a bent, damaged, or dirty valve, do not use the cylinder. Contact your supplier and ask for instructions.
Testing for Leaks After completing the external inspection, proceed as follows:
Test the cylinder valve for leaks using the leak test method approved by your employer. If you detect leakage, follow the employers procedures for handling leaking cylinders.
Note: It is normal for cryogenic liquid cylinders to vent through their relief valves to relieve excess pressure build up due to heat leak. This venting is not a leak.
If no leak is detected, secure the cylinder valve cap in place before moving the cylinder to the point of use or to the storage are a .

Cryogenic Tanks
The inner vessel of the storage tank is typically designed to sustain a maximum allowable working pressure of 250 psig (1724 kPa). Vessels may be fabricated for higher or lower working pressures and special applications. The serv i c e pressure of the vessel is adjustable. Caution: Storage Facility Maintenance. Only authorized and trained personnel should maintain and operate the liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen or liquid argon storage facility and its components. Safety concerns should be re p o rted immediately. General Safety Rules for Liquid Oxygen, Liquid Nitrogen and Liquid Argon The following are general safe handling rules for liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid arg o n :

Liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid argon are cryogenic liquids. Their boiling temperatures are: Liquid Oxygen Liquid Nitrogen Liquid Argon Sublimation Point Liquid CO2 -109.3 oF (-78.5 oC) -297.3 oF (-183 oC) -320.4 oF (-195.8 oC) -302.6 oF (-185.9 oC)
To minimize heat transfer and sustain very low temperatures, the storage vessel must be specially designed. Storage vessels for liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid argon are commercially available in various capacities from 350 to 13,000 U.S. gallons (1,325 to 49,210 liters) water capacity. The storage vessels may be either vertical, spherical, or horizontal depending on the site and consumption requirements. Cryogenic liquids storage vessels have three basic components: 1. Inner Pressure Vessel A vessel usually made of stainless steel or other materials that have favorable strength characteristics when exposed to cryogenic temperatures. 2. Outer Vessel A vessel made of carbon steel or stainless steel. Under normal operating conditions, this vessel retains the insulation around the inner pressure vessel, and can also maintain a vacuum around the inner vessel. Typically, the outer vessel is not exposed to cryogenic temperatures. 3. Insulation The space between the inner and outer vessel, containing several inches of insulating material maintained in a vacuum. The vacuum and insulating material help to reduce heat transfer and thereby reduce the boil-off of the liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen or liquid argon stored within the vessel.
Do not store liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen or liquid argon in confined spaces or poorly ventilated areas. Ensure that cryogenic liquids are handled only by persons instructed in the pro p e rties of the material and in the proper pro c e d u re for handling it. s Ensure that all piping in which cryogenic liquids could be trapped between two valves and receptacles is equipped with pressure relief valves that are piped to properly designed vents. Do not smoke or create sparks near liquid oxygen equipment and tanks. Do not approach liquid oxygen tanks with an open flame.

Praxairs Membrane Nitrogen Supply Systems
How It Works The key to in-plant nitrogen production is the technically advanced bundles of hollow-fiber membranes. The membranes separate nitrogen from air by selective permeat ion . When air passes through the membrane fibers, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor permeate rapidly and safely return to the atmosphere. Nitrogen, which does not readily permeate the membrane, goes directly into the distribution system and is supplied at the customers flow rate, pressure and purity requirements. Typical Applications

P r a x a i rs LaserStar 1530 The LaserStarTM 1530 nitrogen generator produces on-site nitrogen assist gas used during laser cutting and drilling on carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum alloys. It will support cutting on carbon and stainless steel up to 1/4, and aluminum alloys up to 0.200 in thickness. The use of nitrogen eliminates cleaning time of the cut edge on parts that will be powder coated, when compared to the cut quality that is typically achieved when using industrial grade oxygen. Cutting speeds are equivalent to what is achieved when compared with the use of cryogenic nitrogen. When cutting stainless steel with membrane nitrogen, the cut edge has a flat gray appearance rather than the bright, oxide-free cut quality that is possible with the use of cryogenic nitrogen. For this reason, many customers use a cylinder cluster or mini bulk nitrogen supply system when clean cut quality on stainless steel is required. There is no degradation in cut quality when cutting aluminum and cutting p e rf o rmance is laser dependent (reflectivity may be an issue). Some manufacturers offer operating advantages when cutting a highly reflective material such as aluminum. Ask yourself a few simple questions:

Nitrogen Generation Technology For Laser Assist Gases
Do you polish the edge after cutting with oxygen? Do you weld the edge or part after cutting? Does the cut edge need to be free of oxides to allow for improved powder coating adhesion properties? Does all your stainless steel cutting require clean cut quality? Do you cut aluminum alloys less than 0.200 in thickness? Is lower nitrogen assist gas cost important to you? Does your laser operate on more than one shift per day? Are you adding a second laser where you can dedicate stainless steel jobs that do not require clean cut perf o rm a n c e ? Do you frequently cut material that is less than 1/4 in thickness? Have you ever run out of nitrogen assist gas due to a missed delivery?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then contact a Praxair representative to discuss the LaserStar 1530 membrane technology for laser assist gases.

Safety
Do not mix hydrogen with other gases from separate cylinders. Always purchase hydrogen blends ready-mixed. Oxygen Warning Oxygen supports and can greatly accelerate combustion. Oxygen, as a liquid or cold gas, may cause severe frostbite to the skin or eyes. Do not touch frosted pipes or valves. Always use a pressure-reducing regulator when withdrawing gaseous oxygen from a cylinder or other high-pressure source. Read all labels on containers of liquid or gaseous oxygen, and observe all safety precautions on the label. If a label is missing or illegible, do not use the product. Make no assumptions about what is in the container; return it to the supplier. Keep combustibles away from oxygen and eliminate ignition sources. Many substances which do not normally burn in air, as well as other substances combustible in oxygen, may burn violently when a high percentage of oxygen is present. For detailed information, please consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) on oxygen. With areas of concern, please consult your Praxair Sales Representative on the availability of oxygen or other gas sensors.
Precautions and Safe Practices for Shielding Gases To handle compressed gases safely, you must have a thorough knowledge of the characteristics of the gases you use, including the hazards. This section includes information about the major hazards of compressed gases. Read and understand Praxairs Safety Precautions for Gases (P-3499) and Condensed Safety Information, Compressed Gases and Cryogenic Liquids (P-12-237). Nitrogen, Argon, Helium and Carbon Dioxide Warning Nitrogen, argon, helium, and carbon dioxide can all cause rapid asphyxiation and death if released in confined, poorly ventilated areas. Particular attention must be paid with gases that have a higher specific gravity than air as they can collect in confined spaces (displacing oxygen). For detailed information, please consult your Praxair Sales Representative on the availability of nitrogen, argon, helium, carbon dioxide or other gas sensors.
Nitrogen, argon, and helium as cryogenic liquids or cold gases, and carbon dioxide as a cold gas may cause severe frostbite to the skin or eyes. Do not touch frosted pipes or valves with bare skin. Use a properly designed pressurereducing regulator when withdrawing gaseous nitrogen, argon, helium, or carbon dioxide from a cylinder or other high-pressure source. Praxair does not recommend the use of cylinder adapters. A properly designed regulator should be utilized with each gas in question. Hydrogen Danger Hydrogen is a flammable gas. A mixture of hydrogen with oxygen or air in a confined area will explode if ignited by a spark, flame, or other source of ignition. A hydrogen flame is virtually invisible in welllighted areas. Hydrogen as a liquid or cold gas may cause severe frostbite to the eyes or skin. Do not touch frosted pipes or valves. Always use a pressure-reducing regulator when withdrawing gaseous hydrogen from a cylinder or other high-pressure source. Never open a hydrogen cylinder without a regulator attached as it may cause spontaneous combustion. For detailed information, please consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) on hydrogen. With areas of concern, please consult your Praxair Sales Representative on the availability of hydrogen or other gas sensors. Take every precaution to prevent hydrogen leaks. Escaping hydrogen cannot be detected by sight, smell, or taste. Because of its lightness, it has a tendency to accumulate beneath roofs and in the upper portions of other confined areas.

Industrial Argon Argon is colorless, odorless, tasteless and nontoxic. Argon (Ar) is a noble gas that comprises 0.93 % of the earths atmosphere. Argon provides an inert and clean environment free from nitrogen and oxygen for annealing and rolling metals and alloys. In the casting industry, argon is used to flush porosity from molten metals to eliminate defects in castings. In the metal fabrication industry, argon is used to create an optimized atmosphere during open arc welding. Argon is frequently blended with carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen (H2), Helium (He) or Oxygen (O2) to enhance the arc characteristics or to facilitate stable metal transfer in Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW or MIG).

Praxairs FG-2 has high BTU content in its primary and secondary flames. The primary flame cone is similar to that of acetylene. The BTU capacity of the outer flame is greater than acetylene, making it ideal for cutting and heating of steel alloys greater than 1/2 inch in thickness. Praxairs FG-2 combines the desirable qualities of an acetylene flame with the secondary heating capacity of propane. This fuel gas burns hotter than propane and natural gas. Cutting speed should be compared on a case-by-case basis prior to choosing fuel gas for your application. When making a conversion from acetylene to FG2, it is necessary to replace the fuel gas supply hose (grade T) as well as the cutting tip. Depending on the thickness of the material being cut, it may be necessary to replace the mixer in the oxy/acetylene cutting torch due to the different oxygen/fuel gas

Helium Helium (He) is the second lightest process gas next to hydrogen. Colorless, odorless, tasteless, nontoxic and chemically inert, helium is nonflammable and, when compared with argon, has a high thermal conductivity. Helium-enhanced mixtures are utilized to create an inert gas shield and prevent oxidation during open arc welding of metals such as aluminum, stainless steel, copper and magnesium alloys. The addition of helium generally increases weld pool fluidity and travel speed. Penetration properties will be broader and travel speed is typically increased with the addition of helium to the shielding gas mixture. Use of helium-enhanced mixtures will also lessen the formation of welding ozone when welding on aluminum alloys. Hydrogen Hydrogen (H2) is the lightest of all gases. Colorless, odorless, tasteless and nontoxic, hydrogen exists as a gas at atmospheric temperatures and pressures. In metal fabrication, hydrogen serves as a protective atmosphere in high temperature operations such as stainless steel manufacturing. Hydrogen is commonly mixed with argon for increased travel speed, improved color match and enhanced weld metal fluidity during welding of austenitic grades of stainless steel (300 series). Hydrogen is used as an addition to argon mixtures to improve performance during plasma welding, gouging and cutting operations.

Industrial Propane Propane (C3H8) is a colorless, flammable, liquefied gas with a distinct odor. The flame temperature of the oxy-propane flame is lower when compared with the acetylene and FG-2. The primary flame releases less BTU when compared with FG-2 or acetylene, which increases preheat time. Propane is commonly used by scrap yards for cutting of carbon steel where the cut quality is less critical. Where cut quality is not a concern, propane may be a cost-effective fuel gas.

Praxair Starblend Mixing System Maintaining gas mixture integrity with high-pressure cylinders is the key to achieving high-quality welds. Thats why we developed the patented Praxair Starblend mixing system for two, three and four-part argon-based blends containing carbon dioxide. It provides industry-leading mixture consistency from cylinder to cylinder. From full to empty, Praxairs Starblend mixing system helps to ensure that your shielding gas blends are thoroughly mixed. Cylinders filled using this technology deliver consistent mixture integrity from start to finish, which:

Gas Blends
Lowers residual cylinder losses Ends premature cylinder changeouts Helps eliminate costly rework
Maintaining Mixture Integrity Because of the difference in the specific gravity (weight) of the gases, stratification can occur with an argon/carbon dioxide cylinder filled by conventional methods. Carbon dioxide is heavier than argon and settles at the bottom of the cylinder. Inconsistent mixing in the cylinder is a common result. The Praxair Starblend mixing system was developed specifically for argon/ carbon dioxide mixtures. It consists of a specially designed eductor or dip tube with strategically placed openings along its length. This creates turbulence in the cylinder during filling and promotes superior gas mixing, while producing a homogeneous blend without the need to roll the cylinder. In addition to providing uniform mixing, the patented eductor tube design permits withdrawal of the mixture from various locations within the cylinder. This Praxair design feature ensures a consistent mix from the time the valve is initially opened to cylinder change-out.
The cylinder is evacuated and a vacuum is pulled before filling. The cylinder is partially filled with CO2. The cylinder is partially filled with Argon. Filling turbulence ends, resulting in a perfect gas blend. Praxair patented eductor tube helps ensure shielding gas blends are thoroughly mixed. Results obtained with Ar/CO2 mixtures: Conventional cylinder versus Praxairs patented eductor tube

Industrial Mixtures
Argon/Carbon Dioxide Praxairs StarGold Blends Argon/carbon dioxide blends are versatile mixtures for welding carbon, lowalloy and some stainless steels. Increasing the carbon dioxide content will increase weld penetration and bead wetting characteristics. At higher amperage levels and CO2 content by volume, increased spatter may result. Ar/CO2 blends can be used to join a wide range of material thickness while utilizing a variety of modes of metal transfer. This family of blends is ideally suited for GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) and FCAW (Flux Cored Arc Welding). When performing FCAW, please consult the wire manufacturers recommendations before selecting a shielding gas. Failure to do so may result in poor weld metal ductility, especially when multi-pass welding. Principal Applications Argon/carbon dioxide blends are used for all kinds of structural steel, farm implements and machinery. Lower levels of carbon dioxide can be used for pulsed arc or spray arc welding, while higher levels > 20% are used for short arc welding and some gas-shielded flux-cored wires. CGA MSDS MSDS

Argon/Oxygen Praxairs StarGold Blends Argon/oxygen blends are widely used for conventional and pulsed spray transfer on clean (little or no scale or residual oil), plain carbon and stainless steel alloys. These blends typically contain 1%, 2% or 5% oxygen, and provide good arc stability and very low levels of spatter and fume. Higher levels of oxygen will also increase puddle fluidity that may make out-of-position welding more difficult. Principal Applications Generally used for welding carbon steel that is less than 1/2 in thickness such as farm equipment, military transports, ships and automotive assemblies including mufflers. These blends are also used for spray and pulsed spray arc welding of both ferritic and austenitic stainless steel components. Argon/Oxygen blends are a good selection for joining low carbon steel to 300 series stainless steel when used in combination with an ER309 filler metal.

Welding, Brazing and Soldering Solutions Safety Considerations
Arc Welding Process Safety in welding, cutting, and allied processes is covered in ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding and Cutting, and ANSI Z49.2, Fire Prevention in the Use of Welding and Cutting Processes. Personnel should be familiar with the safe practices discussed in these documents. Other potential hazards are associated with welding and cutting including the potential for electric shock and burn s . Safe Handling of Gas Cylinders and Regulators Compressed gas cylinders must be handled carefully and be adequately secured when stored or in use. Rough handling may damage the high pressure cylinders or cylinder valves. With acetylene damage, fuse plugs may leak or an accident such as a fire could occur. Valve protection caps should be kept on the cylinders during transport and storage. Regulators should only be attached to the cylinders during use. Gases Pollutant gases present in the arc zone will vary based on the composition of the material being welded. This may include ozone, nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide. Shielding gas selection has a significant impact on the production of these gases. In many cases, careful selection of these shielding gases will result in a safer working environment. Phosgene gas may be present as a result of thermal or ultra-violet decomposition of chlorinated hydrocarbon cleaning agents located in the vicinity of the welding operation. Degreasing or other cleaning operations involving chlorinated hydrocarbons should be carried out in a separate area so that vapors generated from these operations cannot reach radiation from the welding arc. Shielding gases also present a hazard when welding in confined spaces. While not toxic, they are asphyxiates and will displace oxygen. Auxillary breathing apparatus is must be worn when welding in confined spaces. Respiratory protective equipment is described in ANSI Z49.1 Ozone The ultraviolet light emitted by the arc reacts with the oxygen in the surrounding atmosphere to produce ozone. The amount of ozone produced depends on the intensity and wavelength of the ultraviolet energ y, humidity, amount of screening afforded by any welding fumes, and other factors such as filler metal and shielding gas selection. Ozone concentration generally increases when the welding current increases. Welding ozone production is not typically a problem when welding carbon or stainless steel. Ozone may be an issue when welding aluminum alloys with silicon-enhanced filler metals combined with argon shielding gas. For additional information on welding ozone, please request a copy of our technical literature # P-8174, Understanding Ozone in Gas-Shielded Arc Welding.
4 1
Nitrogen Dioxide Some test results show that high concentrations of nitrogen dioxide are only found within 6 inches (15.24 cm) of the arc. With normal natural ventilation, these concentrations are quickly reduced to safe levels in the welders breathing zone. Carbon Monoxide Shielding gases containing carbon dioxide CO2 are commonly used with the Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) and Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW ) processes. CO2 disassociates from the heat of the arc (12,0000 F), forming carbon monoxide. Only a small amount of carbon monoxide molecules combines with free oxygen to form CO2. Concentrations of carbon monoxide become insignificant at distances of more than 3 or 4 inches (7.62 or 10.16 cm) from the arc. The inert nature of argon based shielding gas helps to lower carbon monoxide formation at the arc. Welders must work in close proximity to the arc. Hot gases created by the arc rise toward their breathing zone. It is recommended that the welders head is kept out of the fume plume. Metal Fumes Welding fumes generated by the arc can be controlled by general ventilation, local exhaust ventilation, or by respiratory protective equipment as described in ANSI Z49.1. The method of ventilation, required to keep the level of potentially hazardous substances within the welders breathing zone below the recommended safe threshold concentrations, is directly dependent on these factors:

Composition of the material being welded Size of the work area Composition of the filler metal selected Shielding gas selection Operating parameters Welding process selection Degree of confinement or obstruction to normal air movement where the welding is being done
Special precautions must be taken to protect the operator from breathing fumes produced when welding with filler metals that contain high levels of manganese such as Hadfield manganese (12% Mn.). Welding stainless steel and surf a c i n g with chromium-rich alloys present the problem of chromiumcontaining fumes. Each operation should be evaluated on an individual basis to determine what options are available to lower total fume production. Radiant Energy The total radiant energy produced by arc welding processes will vary by process depending on the energy density developed, the masking influence of welding fume, and the degree of arc exposure. Generally, the highest ultraviolet radiant energy intensities are produced when using argon shielding gases or when welding aluminum alloys.
Welding, Brazing and Soldering Solutions 4 2

Welding, Brazing and Soldering Solutions Safety Considerations
high voltages present in the laser system. All personnel working around the high-voltage components of a laser should be trained in proper safety techniques for electrical systems. Appropriate grounding and interlocking devices should be employed around all high-voltage components. Discharg i n g of capacitors should be standard operating procedure before people enter areas containing electrically-charged components. Exposure to Direct or Reflected Light Beam exposure is the most common safety hazard associated with laser cutting, marking, drilling and welding. Lasers that cut engineering materials may also cause severe damage to the human body. Laser beam exposure causes eye damage, b u rning of the cornea, the retina, or both. Lasers may also cause severe skin and tissue damage on unprotected areas of the body. There are two main reference documents that are available for eye protection around lasers: 1) ANSI Z87.1 on eye and face protection 2) The Laser Institute of Americas Guide for the Selection of Laser Eye Protection Both provide guidelines for proper eye protection. The main c o n c e rn when choosing eye protection for laser operators is blocking the laser light being used for welding, drilling, marking or cutting. At high-beam power (1kW), lasers produce a light beam of extreme brilliance. Shaded glasses must be w o rn to protect against this brilliant light source. Frequent eye examinations should also be part of the eye protection program to ensure that eye protection is adequate. Fumes from Materials Being Cut Many materials that are cut with lasers emit toxic vapors, dust or fumes. Studies have shown that laser cutting of polymethyl metharcrylate, polyvinyl chloride and Kevlar produce fumes containing toxic and possibly carcinogenic compounds. Proper ventilation must be supplied in the area of laser operation. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) should be consulted to determine associated health hazards and prevention techniques before cutting any material. Fire extinguishers must be readily accessible in case the laser process starts a fire. Soldering and Brazing Safety Considerations Soldering and brazing operations must be perf o rmed under safe conditions. All labels on solder and brazing filler wires and fluxes must be read carefully to identify potential toxic metals or chemicals. Additional information is available on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the product being utilized. All hand soldering and brazing operations must be perf o rmed in a well ventilated area. Workers using solders, brazing alloys and fluxes should always wash exposed skin before eating. Industrial soldering operations often require electrical supplies at high levels of power. All soldering irons and equipment must be properly grounded. Overh e a t e d solder pots can release toxic metal vapors and fumes. Ventilation systems should be installed to eliminate or treat these fumes.
The suggested filter glass shades for arc welding processes are presented in ANSI Z49.1. To select the best shade for an application, begin with a very dark shade (#13 for welding, #6 for brazing). If it is difficult to see the operation properly, select successively lighter shades (no less than #10 for welding, #5 for brazing) until the operation is sufficiently visible for good control. The welder must not wear shades below the lowest recommended number. Some processes demand use of a darker shade lens. For example, with Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), the brighter arc will demand the use of a darker shade lens than low current Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). Dark leather or wool clothing is recommended when arc welding. The intensity of ultraviolet radiation causes rapid disintegration of cotton clothing. Reference Literature Welding Handbook, 8th Ed., Vol. 2, Miami, FL: American Welding Society Laser Beam Welding and Cutting Misuse of laser equipment may result in permanent damage to the eyes and skin of both the operator and nearby personnel. Specific precautionary measures are required to avoid other potential hazards associated with using lasers. These include dangers related to servicing high-voltage power sources, as well as harmful fumes that can be released when laser processing certain materials. These dangers can be more significant than the beam-related hazards which are typically considered to be the greatest hazard. Detailed laser safety information can be accessed in ANSI Z-136.1 and the Federal Perf o rmance Standard for Laser Products: FDA-Title 21, CFR, Section 1040. Reference to these documents is strongly recommended. The standard used in the United States to design a laser facility is ANSI Z136.1, Safe Use of Lasers. Laser users located outside of the US would benefit from referencing this standard. It details the criteria to be met for safe facility constru ction and defines common term i n o l o g y. Although new facilities should have no difficulty meeting these requirements, modifications to existing facilities should comply with the standard in order to maximize safety. ANSI Z136.1 also defines the hazard classifications for lasers. Proper warning signs or signal lights should be posted in the laser vicinity. Some form of opaque enclosure must surround areas where laser beams are exposed to the atmosphere. It should be noted that a high-power, collimated or unfocused beam is more dangerous over large distances than focused beams which diverge much more rapidly. Some lasers may be extremely noisy during operation, especially if used in enclosed spaces.

Understand some of the differences and advantages of each of the major welding process. Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW or MIG)

Welds most commercial metals and alloys Welding can be done in all positions Welding speeds and weld metal deposition rates are higher than those obtained with shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) Long welds can be deposited without frequent stops and start s Spray-type transfer allows increased penetration compared to shielded metal arc welding Minimal post-weld cleaning is required Ideal for multi-pass welding (with proper filler metal selection) Less operator skill is re q u i red compared to SMAW Operating duty cycles are improved compared to SMAW and FCAW Little or no post-weld cleaning is re q u i red Fume rates are at very low levels compared to SMAW and FCAW A wide selection of filler metal compositions and diameters are available to weld thick or thin material This process is ideal for mechanized welding Improved electrode deposition efficiency compared to GMAW and FCAW X-ray quality welds can be pro d u c e d
Weld metal deposit is high quality Weld appearance is excellent smooth, uniform welds Excellent bead profile for horizontal and vertical up welds Allows many carbon and stainless steels to be welded over a wide thickness range Greater operating factor (improved duty cycle) compared to SMAW This process is ideal for mechanized welding Offers a higher deposition rate compared to SMAW and GMAW Improved electrode deposition efficiency compared to SMAW Greater tolerance to controlled amounts of base metal contamination compared to GMAW Ideal for dissimilar joining of carbon to stainless steel Available in gas-shielded and gasless f o rm ulations (ideal for working outside) Increased penetration compared to SMAW and GMAW - ideal for welding thick materials Offers multi-pass capability (interpass flux cleaning is re q u i red) Improved gap bridging ability compared to GMAW and SMAW
Provides precise control of the welding variables The process is suitable for welding most metals Ideal for joining dissimilar metals Ideal for welding very thin base materials Ideal for welding in all positions Provides the operator with excellent visibility of the weld joint Ideal for multi-pass welding Requires little or no post-weld cleaning Provides X-ray quality weldments
Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW or Stick)

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW or TIG)

Produces superior quality welds, generally free of defects Welds are free of the spatter that occurs with other arc welding pro c e s s e s May be used with or without filler metal as required for the specific application Allows excellent control of root pass weld penetration
Equipment is relatively simple, inexpensive and portable The covered electrode provides a shielded atmosphere that protects the weld deposit from harmful oxidation Auxiliary gas shielding or granular flux is not required (ideal for welding outside) The process is less sensitive to wind and drafts than the GMAW or FCAW processes It can be used in areas where access is limited With proper filler metal selection, this process will support all-position welding Provides X-ray quality joints on carbon and stainless steels Suitable for joining steel to stainless steel Suitable for joining thick and thin base metals There is a large variety of filler metal chemistry available Some electrode types offer good deposition rates Can be used with AC or DC power supplies (with correct filler metal selection)

Selecting a Shielding Gas
There are a variety of gas blends that can be chosen for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW or MIG), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW or TIG), or FluxCored Arc Welding (FCAW) applications. To make a well-informed selection, a number of approaches can be used, but all are based on a basic understanding of the requirements for the finished weldment. Questions that need to be answered first may include: How important is weld appearance? Is spatter near the weld area a concern? Is deep penetration required or should penetration be limited to minimize burn-through of the joint? Is there a concern about the amount of welding fume generated and should it be reduced? Depending on the requirements for the finished weld, a number of other questions might be asked as well. To selection a gas blend, the following four-step process can be followed:
4 7
1
Consider the material type carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, copper alloys or other non-ferrous materials.
2
Know the base material thickness and understand its condition clean, oily, scaled, etc.
3
Determine the welding position as this will impact the type of process/metal transfer you plan to utilize. Process selection may be further impacted by the availability of equipment, operator skills and desired productivity.
4
Review the requirements of the job. Consult the selection chart to determ i n e the gas blend that provides the best perf o rmance for the application at hand. Simple, isnt it? This selection process should help you make a good first attempt at matching the best shielding gas to your application. Refinement may be needed depending on the specific equipment and skills available. Other needs may have to be identified as work progresses.

Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW or MIG) is a process that utilizes a continuously-fed solid electrode, shielding gas from an externally-supplied source, and electrical power to melt the electrode and deposit this molten material in the weld joint. The equipment used automatically regulates the electrical characteristics of the arc. The only manual controls required of the welder for semi-automatic operation are travel speed, travel direction and gun (torch) positioning. Given proper equipment settings, the power supply will provide the necessary amperage to melt the electrode at the rate required to maintain the pre-selected arc length (voltage). For example, an increased stick-out, produced by drawing the torch back from the work piece, results in a reduction in current from the power supply. This maintains the same heating of the electrode and returns the arc length to its preset condition. Filler metal selection should be closely matched to the base material being welded. In GMAW, the filler metal not only conducts current to the arc zone (resulting in melting the base metal and electrode), but adds re i n f o rcement to the completed weld joint. GMAW can be used on a wide variety of metals and in a number of different base metal thicknesses. Its successful application depends on proper selection of:

Arc Welding Processes

Why Use GMAW?

Electrode composition, diameter and packaging Shielding Gas type (composition), purity and flow rate Process Variables current, voltage, mode of metal transfer and travel speed Equipment power source, welding gun and wire feeder
It is a high-productivity, low-cost welding process It can be used to weld all types of commercially available metals and alloys Welding can be done in all positions with proper selection of equipment and parameters Using a continuously-fed electrode maintains a high operator duty cycle and minimizes the occurrence of defects on starts and stops Deep weld penetration can be obtained which permits the use of small weld sizes for equivalent weld strengths in certain applications Minimal post-weld clean-up is required due to the absence of a covering slag on the weld bead Welding speeds and weld metal deposition rates are higher than those obtained with shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) Ideal for multi-pass welding (with proper filler metal selection) Less operator skill is required compared to SMAW Fume rates are at very low levels compared to SMAW and FCAW A wide selection of filler metal compositions and diameters are available to weld thick or thin material This process is ideal for mechanized welding This process offers improved electrode deposition efficiency compared to GMAW and FCAW X-ray quality welds can be produced
Limitations
Welding equipment is more complex, more costly and less p o rtable than that for stick electrode (shielded metal arc) welding The required welding torch makes reaching into constricted areas difficult, and the need for good gas shielding necessitates the torch being relatively close to the weld area The welding arc with its gas shield must be protected from drafts that might cause the shielding to be blown away from the arc. This limits the use of the process outdoors unless protective shields are placed around the work area Relatively high levels of radiated heat and light may cause operator discomfort and initial resistance to the process Burn-through is a common issue when welding extremely thin materials (<1/16) With conventional transfer when welding out of position, weld metal deposition rates are less than those achieved with FCAW This process does not perf o rm well where base metal contamination is a problem. The base metal must be clean and rust fre e Lack of fusion defects may result where process parameters are incorrectly set. This is especially critical when welding base metals thicker than 1/4

With cylinder gas supply, use a high integrity gas delivery system in place of a standard rubber diaphragm regulator flowmeter. Use a large gas nozzle if possible (3/4" or greater). Depending on the welding position and current setting, use gas flow rates in the 35-45 cfh range. Ascertain raw material is clean before welding. Use a larger filler metal diameter when possible (0.035 or greater) as this will enhance wire feedability. Use a larger filler metal diameter when possible (0.045 or greater) as this will enhance wire feedability. Small diameter wires may only be used with spool guns or push/pull feeders. Use a larger filler metal diameter when possible (0.045 or greater) as this will enhance deposition rates and wire feedability. For out-of-position welding, select an .045 or .052 diameter wire. Use a high integrity gas supply line from the flowmeter to the gas solenoid on the welder. Conventional rubber hoses may leak. If a central gas supply or distribution pipeline is utilized, use a high flow moisture trap and an oxygen trap. To control splatter, use an argon-based gas mixture. Options include Argon/CO2, Argon/Oxygen/CO2, and Argon/CO2/helium Use ultra-high purity argon when possible (Grade 5.0 or better), 99.999% purity. Use a three-part gas mixture for stainless welding. Options include helium/argon/CO2, argon/nitrogen/CO2, and argon/CO2/hydrogen. Hydrogen or nitrogen-enhanced shielding gases should not be used when welding stainless to carbon steel. Hydrogen-enhanced shielding gases will offer an improved color match and should be selected when surface appearance is critical. For a gas-shielded wire, match filler metal to shielding gas. Always consult filler metal manufacturer's recommendations. Failure to do so could result in loss of weld metal ductility and cracking. Use pure CO2 or argon/CO2 gas mixtures. Note, some wires are designed to operate with 100% CO2 only. Use a two-part gas mixture - argon/CO2. Pure CO2 can be utilized with some stainless flux-cored wires but it can contribute to additional welding fumes and increase distortion rates. On thicker materials (> 1/8"), consider the use of an argon/helium shielding gas mixture (<90% He). As base metal thickness increases, helium content should also increase. With materials greater than 1/8", consider use of spray or pulsed spray transfer for improved penetration. When pulse arc transfer is selected, move up to the next larger wire diameter. Use post and pre-flow when possible (1-2 seconds for pre-flow and 1 second for every 50 amps of welding current for post-flow). Keep torch in the weld zone until gas has stopped flowing. Use post and pre-flow when possible (1-2 seconds for pre-flow and 1 second for every 10 amps of welding current for post-flow). Keep torch in the weld zone until gas has stopped flowing. Perform inter-pass cleaning with a 300 series stainless steel brush. Perform inter-pass cleaning with a steel brush to reduce the incidence of subsurface porosity. Remove surface contamination when possible (rust and mill scale). Remove surface oxide in the weld zone using a clean stainless steel brush prior to welding. Be sure to use a SS brush that has not been used on carbon steel. Match filler metal to base metal - consult AWS or CWB guidelines. Match filler metal to the application at hand. Follow recommendations of wire manufacturer. Use a water-cooled Mig torch when welding thicker material (>1/8") to prevent wire feed problems. Use an enclosed feeder when possible to prevent contamination of the filler metal. If the feeder is exposed to the atmosphere, remove the spool when welding is complete and place it back into the shipping box or clean storage area.

Use a V-groove drive roll that is adjusted properly to prevent the wire from being deformed or crushed, and for improving wire feeding. Polish drive roll with a stainless steel brush prior to use. Use a U-groove drive roll that is adjusted properly to prevent the wire from being deformed or crushed, and for improving wire feeding. Polish drive roll with a stainless steel brush prior to use. Use Direct Current Reverse Polarity (DCRP) electrode positive when possible. Gasless wires may operate on DCSP (Direct Current Straight Polarity). Consult filler metal manufacturer's recommendations. Heat input should be minimized and tacking intervals should be every 4 inches due to the thermal expansion rates of stainless steel. This will also improve corrosion resistance by preventing carbide precipitation. Heat input should be minimized and tacking intervals should be every 8 inches due to the thermal expansion rates of steel. Use fume extraction systems. Consult MSDS of the electrode manufacturer. The use of pulsed transfer combined with argon-enhanted shielding gases will help to lower the fume rate. In stainless welding, air-born chromium may be breathed by operator. A respirator is highly recommended. To minimize surface discoloration, maintain close nozzle-to-work distances (maximum 1/2" from work piece). To minimize surface porosity, maintain close nozzle-to-work distances (maximum 3/4" from work piece). To limit weld spatter, use spray or pulsed spray transfer when possible. To limit weld spatter, consider the use of metal-cored wires which facilitate the use of spray or pulsed spray transfer. For flat or horizontal welding, this family of wires offers improved deposition rates, as well as reduced post-weld clean up. GMAW is not recommended for cladding applications. Use FCAW or SAW. FCAW is recommended for cladding applications. Be sure to remove the residual slag deposit off the surface of the weld metal prior to multi-pass welding. Aluminum and copper alloys have high thermal conductivity. Preheating may be required on thick sections. Use a teflon liner to improve wire feedability. If the weld needs to be anodized, use a 5000 series filler metal. Use a contact tip that is slightly larger than the wire diameter selected. Do not use tools that have been utilized on carbon steel structures. Grinding sparks from steel must not touch aluminum or stainless steel structures. Use a shorter Mig gun (8 ft) or a push/pull system to improve wire feedability. Circulate wire stock and do not open shipping package until ready to use the wire. Wires stored for extended periods of time must be oven baked to remove excess moisture.

Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) utilizes a continuously-fed tubular electrode, electrical power to melt the electrode, and may or may not use shielding gas from an externally-supplied source when depositing material in the weld joint. The fluxcored electrode is a composite tubular filler metal consisting of a metal sheath with a core of mineral compounds and powdered metals. The resulting weld bead is covered by a residual slag (melted and solidified flux) which helps to protect and shape the finished weld, and is generally easily removed upon completion of the weld. FCAW combines the high productivity of GMAW using a solid electrode with the ability to weld on more contaminated base material. When compared with GMAW, higher deposition rates are possible, especially when welding out of position. There are three types of fluxcored wires available: 1) Gas-shielded all position 2) Gas shielded flat position 3) Self-shielded Each has its own advantages. The type of FCAW wire used depends on the welding position, the mechanical pro p e rties required, the type of joint and its fit-up, and the environment in which the welding is to be perf o rmed. Generally, self-shielded wires are used for welding outside or for special applications such as welding galvanized steel. Among the most common are outdoor construction and fabrication in areas where gas cylinders and gas shielding cannot be readily used. Gas-shielded flux-cored wires are used in operations such as shop fabrication, maintenance, and shipbuilding. Flux-cored wire welding is especially useful where the base material to be welded has some amount of scale, rust or other surface contaminants present. With the proper selection of wire type and shielding gas, weld pro p e rties are excellent for many types of materials. All-position wires (E-71T-1) are typically smaller than 1/16 in diameter and are formulated with a fast-freeze flux. They are not well suited for use where high levels of base metal contamination exist, but offer good control when welding in the vertical up or over-head position. Shielding gas selection can be pure CO2 or C25. In all instances, the shielding gas selected should be matched with the recommendation of the filler metal manufacturer. Failure to do so may result in poor quality welds. A common problem from incorrect gas selection is weld cracking. Flat-position wires (E-70) can be utilized in the flat or horizontal welding positions. They are typically greater than 1/16 diameter and are primarily applied for high deposition welding on thicker base materials (>1/4) This family of wires offers a greater resistance to base metal contamination, and they have been shown to perf o rm well over some rust and mill scale. Good welding practice dictates that the base metal should be cleaned of contamination prior to welding but, if this is not possible, these wires are the preferred choice. Why Use FCAW?

4 13
High-quality weld deposit with excellent appearance Can be used to join many types of metals over a wide thickness range Relatively high electrode efficiency and process duty cycle Excellent weld penetration simplifies joint design The arc is visible and easy to use Because of its greater tolerance for base plate contamination, FCAW requires less pre-cleaning than GMAW Deposition rate is up to four times greater than SMAW The use of self-shielded electrodes eliminates the need for flux handling or gas apparatus, and is more tolerant of windy conditions present in outdoor construction than gas-shielded processes
Limitations Presently limited to welding ferrous metals and nickel-based alloys Process produces a slag covering that must be removed FCAW electrode wire is more expensive on a weight basis than solid electrode wires, except for some high alloy steels Equipment is more expensive and complex than required for SMAW; however, increased productivity usually compensates for this In general, more fume is generated than with GMAW

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW or TIG) is a process that joins metals by heating them with an arc between a tungsten electrode (non-consumable) and the work piece. The process is used with a shielding gas and may also be used with or without the addition of filler metal. The primary variables in GTAW are arc voltage (arc length), welding current, travel speed and shielding gas composition. The amount of energ y the arc produces is pro p o rtional to the current and the voltage. The amount of energy transferred per unit length of weld is inversely pro p o rtional to the travel speed. Shielding gases are typically inert to protect the electrode from contamination. The use of helium shielding provides more penetration than a rgon. The arc, established between the tip of the electrode and the work, generates heat to melt the base metal. Once the arc and weld pool are established, the torch is moved along the joint, and the arc pro g ressively melts the surfaces to be joined. If used, filler wire is usually added to the leading edge of the weld pool to fill the joint. The tungsten electro d e can be alloyed with small amounts of active elements to increase emissivity of the electrode; this provides quicker arc starting, greater arc stability, and longer electrode life.

Why Use GTAW?

Can be used to join almost all metals, with superior weld quality, generally free of defects Free from spatter that occurs with other arc welding processes Can be used with or without filler metal as required for the specific application Provides excellent control of root pass weld penetration Can be used to produce inexpensive autogenous (fusion) welds with good penetration Provides for separate control over the heat input and filler metal additions
Limitations

Travel speeds and deposition rates are relatively low, increasing weld cost A high degree of operator skill is required to produce quality welds Process is not easily automated

With cylinder gas supply, use a high integrity gas delivery system in place of a standard rubber diaphragm regulator/flowmeter. Use a gas lens in the Tig torch to support a lamellar gas flow. Use gas flow rates in the 15-20 cfh range. Ascertain both raw material and filler metals are clean before welding. Use a high integrity Tig torch as it utilizes a high integrity gas delivery line which is not permeable to atmospheric gases. The gas line is also separate from the power cable, further enhancing gas purity. Use a high integrity gas supply line from the flowmeter to the gas solenoid on the welder. Conventional rubber hoses may leak. If a central gas supply or distribution pipeline is utilized, use a high flow moisture trap and consider use of an oxygen trap. Use ultra-high purity argon when possible (Grade 5.0 or better), 99.999% purity. With materials greater than 1/8", consider use of an argon/helium shielding gas blend for improved penetration. Consider adding controlled amounts of hydrogen to the argon-based shielding gas (<10% H2). A CGA 350 regulator will be required when this gas is selected. The CGA 580 used with pure argon will not fit this cylinder. This mixture is not recommended for joining stainless to carbon steel. It is ideal for stainless-to-stainless joining. Use post and pre-flow when possible (1 second for each 10 amps of welding current). Use a trailing shielding gas if possible. Use a high integrity regulator/flowmeter with a stainless steel diaphragm. Perform inter-pass cleaning with a 300 series stainless steel brush. This will remove surface oxides for improved results. Remove surface oxide in the weld zone using a clean stainless steel brush prior to welding. On thicker material, set balance control to maximum penetration when possible. Match filler metal to base metal - consult AWS or CWB guidelines. For stainless to steel, use an E309 filler metal. For dissimilar alloy joining, consider silver bearing filler metal. Service temperatures must be below the melting point of the alloy selected (typically < 900O F). If the weld needs to be anodized, use a 5000 series filler metal. Use an AC square wave power supply when possible.

TIG Welding - How To Improve Results (continued)
Titanium Alloys Use a water-cooled Tig torch to prevent the tungsten from melting and improve the current carrying capacity of the torch when welding thicker material. Use a pure tungsten electrode and increase the diameter to compensate for additional heat load at the torch. Less than 3/32" thoriated tungsten electrodes are not recommended for welding aluminum. Consider using preheat on thick sections. Oxy-acetylene torches work well. Be sure to set a carburizing flame and use a temperature measuring device. Be patient on arc starts. Aluminum and copper have high heat conductivity. Material will not melt for several seconds. Use a remote foot or hand control to compensate for the high thermal conductivity of aluminum or copper or with thin stainless steel. Use Direct Current Straight Polarity (DCSP) electrode negative when possible. Direct Current Reverse Polarity (DCRP) may be used for very thin sections (<1/16"). To improve surface color match and corrosion resistance, use pulsed current settings. Use an alloyed tungsten electrode to increase current carrying capacity. If thoriated tungsten is selected, ensure all grinding dust is captured and removed from the operator's breathing zone. Consult MSDS of the electrode manufacturer. To minimize surface discoloration, maintain close nozzle-to-work distances (maximum 1/2" from work piece). Rapid cool thin sections to maintain corrosion resistance. Minimize heat input while maintaining sufficient penetration. High Nickel Alloys Aluminum Alloys X X Copper Alloys X Stainless Steel Alloys (300 Series) X

Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW or covered electrode or stick), the most widely used of the various arc welding processes, utilizes a fixed length electrode and an electric power source to join a variety of different metals. The core of the covered electrode consists of a solid metal rod that is surrounded by a covering of mineral compounds and metal powders mixed with a binding agent to help them adhere to the s u rface of the electrode. The core rod conducts electric current to the arc and provides filler metal for the joint. The sizes and types of electrodes for SMAW define the arc voltage requirements (within the overall range of 16 to 40 volts) and the amperage requirements (within the overall range of 20 to 550 amp). The current may be either alternating or direct depending on the electrode used, but the power source must be able to control the level of current within a reasonable range to respond to the complex variables of the welding process itself. The primary functions of the electrode covering are to provide arc stability and to shield molten metal from the atmosphere with gases created as the coating decomposes from the heat of the arc. This shielding controls the mechanical properties, chemical composition, and metallurgical stru c t u re of the weld metal, as well as the arc characteristics of the electrode. The composition of the electrode covering varies according to the type of electrode. Why Use SMAW?
SMAW is an extremely versatile process with respect to location and environment of the operation. Welding can be done inside, outside, on a production line, a ship, a bridge, an oil refinery, a cross-country pipeline, or similar types of locations. Gas and water hoses are not needed, and welding cables extend significantly beyond the power source. In remote areas, gasoline or diesel-powered units can be used Equipment is relatively simple, inexpensive and port a b l e Auxiliary gas shielding or granular flux are not required The process is less sensitive to wind and draft than gas-shielded arc welding processes It can be used in areas where access is limited The process is suitable for most of the commonly-used metals and alloys
Limitations
Operator duty cycles are low compared with semi-automatic and automatic processes; this makes the cost per pound of deposited weld metal high with SMAW Deposition rates are generally lower than for other welding processes The process is considered to be manual as it is not easily mechanized SMAW is not suitable for reactive metals such as titanium, zirconium, tantalum, and columbium because the shielding does not prevent oxygen contamination of the weld

Laser Beam Welding A laser is an energy conversion device that transforms energy from a primary source (e.g. electrical) into a beam of electromagnetic radiation at some specific frequency (ultraviolet, visible, or infrared). This transformation is facilitated by certain solid, liquid or gaseous mediums that produce a very coherent and monochromatic form of light a beam of laser light. Because they are coherent and monochromatic, both lowpower and high-power laser light beams can be transported over large distances before being highly concentrated to provide the level of beam power density needed for welding. Laser Beam Welding (LBW) is a fusion joining process that produces coalescence of materials with the heat obtained from a laser beam impinging on the joint being welded. In the LBW process, the laser beam is directed by flat optical elements, such as mirrors, and then focused to a small spot (for high-power density) at the work piece using either reflective focusing elements or lenses. Inert gas shielding is generally used to prevent oxidation of the molten puddle, and filler metal may occasionally be used. The lasers predominantly being used for industrial material processing and welding tasks are the 1.06 m wavelength YAG laser and the 10.6 m wavelength CO2 laser. The active element most commonly employed in these two varieties of lasers is then neodymium (Nd) ion and the CO2 molecule.
Related Metal-Working Joining Processes

Why Use LBW?
Heat input is close to the minimum required to fuse the weld metal, thus minimizing work piece distortion and heat-affected zone property changes Laser beams are readily focused, aligned and directed by optical elements so the laser can be located at a distance from the work piece and redirected around tooling and obstacles to the work piece. This permits welding in areas not easily accessible to other processes The work piece can be located and hermetically welded in an enclosure that is evacuated or contains a controlled atmosphere The laser beam is focused on a small area, permitting the joining of small, closely-spaced components with tiny welds A wide variety of metals can be welded, including various combinations of different type of material Laser welds are not influenced by the presence of magnetic fields as are arc and electron beam welds; they also tend to follow the weld joint through to the root of the work piece even when the beam and joint are not perfectly aligned Beam can be transmitted to more than one workstation, using beam-switching optics, thus allowing beam time-sharing
Limitations

System cost is very high compared with many other automated processes Fit-up is critical as joints must be accurately positioned laterally under the beam and at a controlled position with respect to the beam focal point The maximum joint thickness that can be laser beam welded is somewhat limited. Weld penetrations much greater than 0.75 in (1.9 cm) are not considered practical production for LBW applications The high reflectivity and high thermal conductivity of some materials, such as aluminum and copper alloys, can limit welding with lasers Lasers have fairly low energy conversion efficiency, generally less than 10 percent As a consequence of the rapid solidification characteristic of LBW, weld porosity and brittleness can be present in some welds

Oxy-Fuel Welding Oxy-fuel Welding (OFW) includes any welding operation that uses combustion with oxygen as a heating medium. With this family of processes, the base metal and a filler rod are melted using a flame produced at the tip of a welding torch. Fuel gas and oxygen are combined in the proper pro p o rtions inside a mixing chamber in the torch. Molten metal from the plate edges and filler metal, if used, intermix in a common molten pool and join when cooling. Commonly-used fuel gases include acetylene, propylene, propane and natural gas. The equipment used in oxy-fuel gas welding is low in cost, usually portable, and versatile enough to be used for a variety of related operations such as bending and straightening, preheating, post-heating, surfacing, brazing, and braze welding. Among commercially-available fuel gases, acetylene most closely meets the requirements for all these applications. Cutting attachments, multi-flame heating nozzles and a variety of special application accessories add greatly to the overall versatility of the basic OFW equipment. With relatively simple equipment changes, manual and mechanized oxygen cutting operations can be perf o rmed. Metals normally welded include carbon and low alloy steels and most nonferrous metals. Why Use OFW?

4 17
OFW is ideally suited for repair welding and for welding thin sheets, tubes and small diameter pipes Welder can exercise precise control over heat input and temperature, independent of the addition of filler metal Minimal dilution with the base material makes OFW suitable for surfacing applications Use of a reducing flame can assist in carburization of the surface to be welded
Limitations

Process deposition rates are low Welding thick sections, except for repair work, is not economical when compared to the many available arc welding processes Weld pro p e rties are generally not as good as those of arc weld deposits

Brazing Brazing joins material by heating it in the presence of a filler metal having a melting point above 840 oF (450 oC) but below the solidification temperature of the base metal. A variety of processes can provide the heat required for brazing. The filler metal used distributes itself between the closely-fitted surf a c e s of the joint by capillary action. Parts must be properly cleaned in order to achieve a good quality joint. To prevent excessive oxidation during brazing, the parts must be protected by either flux or atmosphere during the heating process. The parts must be designed to provide a capillary for the filler metal when properly aligned, and a heating process must be selected to provide the proper brazing temperature and heat distribution. The typical brazed joint has a relatively large area and very small gap. In the simplest brazing application, the surfaces to be joined are cleaned to remove contaminants and oxides. Next, they are coated with flux, a material capable of dissolving solid metal oxides and preventing new oxidation. When the joint is heated, the flux melts, cleaning the base metals and protecting them against further oxidation by a layer of liquid.

Soldering Soldering is a group of joining processes that produce coalescence of material by heating it to the soldering temperature, using a filler metal (solder) having a melting temperature less than 840 oF (450 oC) and below the solidification temperature of the base metal. The solder is distributed between closelyfitted faying surfaces of the joint by capillary action. The heating process selected should provide the proper soldering temperature, heat distribution, and rate of heating and cooling required for the product being assembled. Application of the solder and flux is determined by the selection of the soldering process. Why Solder?

Brazing filler metal is then melted onto the edge of the joint. C a p i l l a ry attraction between the base metal and the filler metal is much higher than that between the base metal and the flux, which is displaced by the filler metal. The joint, when cooled to room temperature, will fill with solid filler metal, and the solid flux will be found on the joint periphery. Why Braze?

Base metal pro p e rties are minimally affected due to the low process heat input Low joining temperatures require little energy input, allowing precise control of the process A wide range of heating methods can be used, allowing flexibility in design and manufacturing procedures M o d e rn automation produces large numbers of joints in electrical and electronic circuits High joint reliability is obtained with carefully controlled procedures Soldered joints that are damaged are easily repaired
Limitations

It is economical for complex assemblies It is a simple way to connect large joint areas It aff o rds excellent stress and heat distribution Joints require little or no finishing If necessary, brazed joints can be taken apart later Coating and claddings can be preserved It allows dissimilar and non-metals to be joined to metals Precision parts can be joined Batch processing allows many parts to be brazed simultaneously
Joint strengths are limited and can be used in certain applications only P a rts must be cleaned properly for good wetting action Flux residue must be removed upon completion of the soldering operation Manual processes are labor intensive and increase overall process costs
Limitations

Joint strengths are limited and only suitable in specific applications Operator skill requirements are high for manual processes Filler metals and labor can be costly, making total expenses high

Metal-Working Cutting/Severing Processes
Oxy-Fuel Gas Cutting Oxy-fuel gas cutting (OFC) processes sever metal by utilizing the chemical reaction of oxygen with metal at elevated temperatures. The required temperature is provided by the combustion of a fuel gas and oxygen (minimum 99.5% purity). The cutting action is supported by the pure oxygen stream. The torch used in the cutting process produces the preheating flame by mixing fuel gas with oxygen in the correct proportions to support combustion. It also provides a concentrated stream of pure oxygen to the base plate. This oxygen oxidizes the hot metal and removes it from the joint area. Depending upon the fuel gas selected and the particular application, different cutting tips and torch mixing chambers are used. Among the fuel gases used are acetylene, FG-2, propylene, propane, and natural gas. Why use OFC?

Steels can generally be cut faster when compared to mechanical means Basic manual equipment is low cost, very portable, versatile and safe to use Thick and thin plates can be cut rapidly with mechanized systems An economical method of plate edge preparation for bevel operations Can be used to easily cut rusty and scaled plate Only moderate skill is required to produce acceptable results
Limitations

Dimensional tolerances are not as precise when compared with other cutting processes Limited to cutting carbon and cast steels Care must be taken to minimize fire and burn hazards resulting from the process Hardenable and other specialty alloy materials may require preheat, post-heat or both upon completion of the cutting process For optimum perf o rmance, cutting tips must be closely matched to the base material thickness being cut

Precautions and Safe Practices for Welding and Cutting
Always read the safety information and the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) supplied by the manufacturers of gases, materials and equipment used in welding operations. This information will recommend safe practices that will protect you from health hazards, such as fumes, gases, and arc burns. Recommendations concerning ventilation and protective devices should be carefully followed. To weld and cut safely, you must have a thorough knowledge of the welding process and equipment you will be using, and all of the hazards involved. The information found here is excerpted from Praxairs P recautions and Safe Practices for Electric Welding and Cutting (P52-529), P recautions and Safe Practices for Gas Welding, Cutting and Heating (P-2035). Fumes and Gases Can Harm Your Health Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe fumes and gases caused by the arc. Use enough ventilation. The type and amount of fumes and gases depend on the equipment and supplies used. Air samples can be used to find out what respiratory protection is needed. Provide enough ventilation wherever welding and cutting are perf o rm e d . Proper ventilation can protect the operator from the evolving fumes and gases. The degree and type of ventilation needed will depend on the specific welding and cutting operation. It varies with the size of the work area, on the number of operators, and on the types of materials to be welded or cut. Potentially hazardous materials may exist in certain fluxes, coatings, and filler metals. They can be released into the atmosphere during welding and cutting. In some cases, general naturaldraft ventilation may be adequate.
6 1
Other operations may require forceddraft ventilation, local exhaust hoods or booths, or personal filter respirators or air-supplied masks. Welding inside tanks, boilers, or other confined spaces requires special pro c e d u re such as s, the use of an air-supplied hood or hose mask. Sample the welding atmosphere and check the ventilation system if workers develop unusual symptoms or complaints. Measurements may be needed to determine whether adequate ventilation is being provided. A qualified person, such as an industrial hygienist, should survey the welding operations and surrounding environment. Do not weld on plate contaminated with unknown material. The fumes and gases which are formed could be hazardous to your health. Remove all paint and other coatings before welding. More complete information on health protection and ventilation recommendations for general welding and cutting can be found in the American National Standard Z49.1, Safety in Welding and Cutting. This document is available from the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126.

Electric Shock Can Kill You Do not touch live electrical parts. To avoid electric shock, follow the re c o mmended practices listed below. Faulty installation, improper grounding, and incorrect operation and maintenance of electrical equipment can be sources of danger.

1. Ground all electrical equipment and the workpiece. Prevent accidental electrical shocks. Connect power supply, control cabinets, and workpiece to an approved electrical ground. The work lead is not a ground lead. It is used to complete the welding circuit. A separate connection is required to ground the work, or the work lead terminal on the power supply may be connected to ground. Do not mistake the work lead for a ground connection. 2. Use the correct cable size. Sustained over-loading will cause cable failure and result in possible electrical shock or fire hazard. Work cable should be the same rating as the torch cable. 3. Make sure all electrical connections are tight, clean and dry. Poor electrical connections can become over heated and even melt. They can also cause poor welds and produce dangerous arcs and sparks. Do not allow water, grease or dirt to accumulate on plugs, sockets or electrical units. 5. Keep cables and connectors in good condition. Improper or worn electrical connections can cause short circuits and can increase the chance of an electrical shock. Do not use worn, damaged or bare cables. 6. Avoid open-circuit voltage. Open-circuit voltage can cause electric shock. When several welders are working with arcs of different polarities or when using multiple alternating-current machines, the open-circuit voltages can be additive. The added voltages increase the severity of the shock hazard. 7. Wear insulated gloves when adjusting equipment. Power should be shut off and insulated gloves should be worn when making any equipment adjustment to assure shock protection. 8. Follow recognized safety standards. Follow the recommendations in American National Standard Z49.1, Safety in Welding and Cutting, available from the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami, FL 33126, and also the National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70, which is available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. 9. Cylinders must be kept out of the welding circuit to prevent arc burns on the cylinder.
4. Moisture and water can conduct electricity. To prevent shock, it is advisable to keep work areas, equipment and clothing dry at all times. Fix water leaks immediately. Make sure that you are well insulated. Wear dry gloves, rubber-soled shoes, or stand on a dry board or platform .

Warning A rc rays and spatter can injure eyes and burn skin. Wear correct eye, ear and body protection. Electric arc radiation can burn eyes and skin the same way as strong sunlight. Electric arcs emit both ultraviolet and infrared rays. Operators, and part i c u l a r l y those people susceptible to sunburn , may receive eye and skin burns after brief exposure to arc rays. Reddening of the skin by ultraviolet rays becomes apparent seven or eight hours later. Long exposures may cause a severe skin burn. Eyes may be severely burned by both ultraviolet and infrared rays. Hot welding spatter can cause painful skin b u rns and permanent eye damage. Be sure you are fully protected from arc radiation and spatter. Cover all skin s u rfaces and wear appropriate eye and face protection from arc burns and b u rns from sparks or spatter. 1. Keep sleeves rolled down. Wear gloves and a helmet. Use correct lens shade to prevent eye injury. Choose the correct shade from the table below. Observ e r s should also use proper protection. Filter Recommendations (Adapted from ANSI Safety Standard Z49.1) Application MIG (Gas Metal and Flux Cored Arc ) 60 to 160 amps 160 to 250 amps 250 to 500 amps 11 12 14 7. Wear ear protection, not only where there is noise, but where there is a chance that spatter or sparks could get into your ears. 8. Wear a leather or fire-resistant fabric cap or other protection to protect your head from sparks or spatter. 9. Protect neighboring workers from exposure to arc radiation. Shield your station with metal or heat-resistant shields. If your station cannot be shielded, everyone within about 75 feet should wear eye protection when welding or cutting is in progress. 10. Assure proper ventilation. Do not breathe welding or cutting fumes. Lens Shade Number*
6 3
4. Wear high, snug-fitting shoes. Avoid wearing low or loose shoes which would allow hot spatter to get inside. 5. Wear cuffless pants. By wearing pants with no cuffs, you eliminate a dangerous spark and spatter trap. Pant legs should overlap shoe tops to prevent spatter from getting into your shoes. 6. Wear clean clothes. Do not wear clothing that has been stained with oil and grease. It may burn if ignited by the heat of the arc.
* As a rule of thumb, start with a shade that is too dark to see the arc zone. Then go to a lighter shade which gives sufficient view of the arc zone without exerting a strain on your eyes.
2. Protect against arc flashes, mechanical injury or other mishaps. Wear spectacles or safety glasses with No. 2 shade filter lens and side shields inside the welding helmet or hand shield. Helpers and observers should wear similar protection. 3. Wear protective clothing such as heat and fire-resistant jackets, aprons, and leggings. Exposure to prolonged or intense arc radiation can cause injury. Thin cotton clothing is inadequate protection. Cotton deteriorates with this type of radiation.

MIG/MAG High Speed Welding With Tandem Process
The TANDEM welding process is characterized by two potential separate welding wires which are melted into one arc. A TANDEM welding torch has two contact tips that are positioned close together with separate potentials. The welding wire is supplied by two separate wire drive units, each of which is connected to a welding power source. Extremely high weld speed, combined with a considerable increase in productivity, are standard features of MIG/MAG TANDEM technology. A considerable increase in productivity can be achieved in universal applications: In the thin plate sector (1 mm to 3mm) with favorable seam geometry, weld speeds of up to 6m/min can be achieved using the TANDEM process. With thick-walled components, throat dimensions of 8 mm can be achieved in a single pass with deposition rates of 24 kg/h and speeds of 80 cm/min (at the same time as a controlled heat input). Even with aluminum, the weld speed can be doubled depending on the component. TANDEM brazing of coated plates enables actual welding speeds of more than 6m/min. Overview TANDEM welding increases productivity 2-3 times as compared to conventional single wire welding systems Deposition rates up to 5 lb per hour Travel speeds in excess of 200 ipm Increased production without increased floor space consumption Features Ability to travel bi-directionally Through Arc seam tracking - both directions Integrated weld data monitoring Retrofit to all automated/semi-automated equipment Easily integrated into existing production with ability to use wide range of materials and gases

Fume Collectors
Nederman
In welding operations, workers are in daily contact with harmful weld fume particulate because the weld fume is made up of 30 to 80 percent submicron-sized particles. That means that most of these particles are respirable (enter the lungs), which makes it critical to collect the weld fume before it reaches your welders breathing zone. Capture at source, which takes care of the contaminants directly at the source, is the most costeffective solution to the problem. Fume particles and other contaminants are effectively prevented from poisoning the welders respiratory organs. Supplying your employees with the necessary tools profits not only in good economy, but also in a good working environment. Praxair carries a full line of portable and stationary fume extraction equipment. FilterCart Original FilterCart Original has the best performance when it comes to welding applications. The integrated spot light optimizes the user-friendly design. If a larger working range is needed, the FilterCart Original can be delivered with 3m/10ft. long arm.

TIG Solutions
Flex-Loc Torches Variable Angle Torch Variable and odd angles are a fact of life in a shipyard, construction site or petrochemical plant. Ordinary torches are not built with these types of applications in mind. The Flex-Loc series torch is a variable angle torch that locks into any position within 360 degrees. Interchangeable heads allow different size tungsten and head sizes to be quickly and efficiently changed. This torch is great for walking the cup on pipe root welds, welds that require a mirror to access and helps to prevent carpal tunnel syndrome. Available in both gas cooled (130-150 amp) and water cooled (230-250 amp) models.

Flexible Purge Chamber
The patented Flexible Purge Chamber is used in the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)/Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) process to provide a completely inert atmosphere for the welding of reactive metals such as titanium, molybdenum, nickel-based and aluminum-based alloys, as well as non-reactive metals like stainless steel. Unique to this design is the ability to draw a vacuum around the product to be welded by collapsing the chamber. The chamber is then filled through a perforated hose that encircles the bottom of the chamber. This filling process allows the argon gas to expel all atmospheric gases more effectively (through the top valve port) than traditional filling methods. This significantly reduces the time required to reach an inert atmosphere suitable for welding, while using considerably less gas than traditional rigid purge chambers.

Plasma Arc Cutting Solutions
Plasma Arc Cutting Plasma Arc Cutting (PAC) is an electric arc cutting process that severs metal by melting a localized area with a constricted arc of super heated gas, which melts the base material at high velocity. The plasma torch has a recessed electrode which uses electrical energy to heat the gas which may be air, nitrogen or oxygen. The gas is delivered to the torch at high pressure (100 psi) and is forced through a constricting orifice held in close proximity to the base material being cut. PAC is ideal for many industrial applications because it can cut any electrically conductive metal if its thickness and shape permit full penetration by the plasma jet. PAC can cut nonferrous materials and is faster than oxy-fuel cutting for ferrous materials that are less than two inches thick. Among the available process variations are: (1) Conventional plasma arc cutting where the arc is constricted by the nozzle only and no shielding gas is added, nitrogen or air serves as the cutting gas; (Air systems are very popular with manual PAC) (2) Oxygen plasma arc cutting, which requires the use of special consumables that are made to operate in an oxidizing atmosphere, is widely used for mechanized cutting of steel since the additional oxygen to the cut zone can boost the cutting speeds by approximately 25%; (3) Water injection cutting, which utilizes water introduced inside the nozzle to provide additional arc constriction to improve cut surface quality and increase cutting speeds. A recent process variation is precision plasma where arc constriction is increased dramatically to provide a high energy density for improved cut squareness and cut quality. Most PAC equipment for conventional cutting utilizes only an orifice gas, generally nitrogen or air. Argon or nitrogen can

also be used in some applications. Nitro g e n / h y d ro gen and arg o n / h y d rogen are used in special cutting applications, particularly for stainless steel, aluminum and with plasma arc gouging. Why PAC?
High quality cutting of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, particularly useful for cutting aluminum, copper and stainless steel Instant cutting starts with no preheat required Process is readily mechanized for high volume, high speed cutting applications Equipment is available for cutting a wide range of material thicknesses Precision plasma can produce laser-quality cuts in some applications for significantly lower equipment costs
Limitations
Cut squareness is affected by plate thickness and material type; more material tends to be removed from the top of the kerf rather than the lower With manual cutting, high levels of noise and fume are generated which require the operator to wear protective equipment Equipment is more costly than oxy-fuel cutting For some materials, grinding of the cut surface must be done to remove chemically altered material before subsequent welding operations are conducted. High operating voltages present the danger of electric shock.

Laser Beam Cutting Laser beam cutting is a thermal cutting process that severs material by locally melting or vaporizing it with heat from a laser beam. The process is used with an assist gas to help remove molten and vaporized material. Modest amounts of laser energy are focused to a small spot size, resulting in a high-power light beam that concentrates the energy to melt and vaporize the substrate. Material removal is boosted by the introduction of a jet of gas. Depending on the material, a jet of reactive gas such as oxygen is applied coaxially with the beam, improving process speed and cut edge quality. Laser cutting has the advantages of high speeds, narrow kerf widths, high quality edges, low-heat input, and minimal workpiece distortion. It is an automated process that cuts most materials. The cut geometry can be changed without the major rework required with mechanical tools; no tool wear is involved, and finishing operations are not usually required. Laser cutting results are highly reproducible with minimal surface oxide. Why Laser Beam Cutting?

6 49
Narrow kerf width, minimal heat-affected zone, little or no distortion Highly reproducible results High cutting speeds with excellent cut quality Easily automated and flexible Ve ry effectively competes with precision plasma and oxy-fuel processes over a range of applications The process can provide for very low levels of surface oxide In many cases, laser cutting is an economical alternative to stamping
Limitations

High capital cost for equipment Limited thickness capability (1.5) in stainless steel and carbon steel. For clean cutting of stainless steel greater than 3/16, special gas supply systems may be required to supply the required delivery pressures

Plasma Arc Gouging Plasma arc gouging (PAG) is an adaptation of the plasma cutting process where arc constriction is reduced, resulting in a lower arc stream velocity. The temperature of the arc and the velocity of the gas stream melt and expel metal in a similar manner to other gouging processes. Compared to carbon arc gouging, plasma arc gouging produces a bright, clean gouge, particularly on stainless steel and nonferrous materials such as aluminum. Almost no post-cleaning is required prior to welding the plasma-gouged surface. Mixtures of argon with hydrogen are typically used as a plasma gas for gouging operations. The secondary or cooling gas, when used, is typically argon or nitrogen. The technique for plasma arc gouging is essentially the same as for other gouging methods. The torch is angled appro x imately 30 degrees from the horizontal, and gouge depth is determined by speed of travel, torch angle and velocity of the plasma jet. It is important not to remove too much metal in a single pass. Plasma arc gouging is most effectively perf o rm e d with power supplies that produce 200 amps or more. Why PAG?

Plasma and Air Carbon Arc Gouging Solutions

Air Carbon Arc Gouging Air Carbon Arc Gouging (CAG-A) removes metal by utilizing the intense heat of the arc between the carbon-graphite electrode and the substrate to melt material that is subsequently removed from the work area by a jet of air. By controlling the angle of the electrode, the depth of the gouged area can also be controlled. The process can be used on carbon and stainless steels, many copper alloys, and cast iron. CAG is used to remove weld defects, to prepare the backside of groove welds for additional processing, and to do general joint preparation for welding. Why Use CAG-A?

To remove large amounts of metal or prepare large areas of metal for subsequent processing Simple equipment with good accessibility to most weld joints Modest skill level required to successfully utilize the process Lower cost of equipment
Limitations
Can be used on all metals Little or no post-cleaning is required before welding P a rticularly effective on aluminum or stainless steel, where the gouges produced are clean without any carbon contamination Low noise when compared with carbon arc gouging Low fume when compared with carbon arc gouging No need to remove residual carbon from the gouge s u rface prior to welding operations
Care is required to minimize trapping of carburized metal at the gouge surface which can negatively influence the properties of subsequent welds or repairs Extremely high noise and fume levels require significant personal protection and environmental control to maintain acceptable exposure levels Gouged stainless steel surfaces should be ground to remove any carburized material which might decrease corrosion resistance
Limitations

May require use of additional protective equipment Depth of gouging and accessibility to some areas can be limited by the torch used Equipment is less portable than for other gouging processes and consumables are more expensive High operating voltages present the danger of electric shock

24/7 Robotic Welding Wire
24/7 Non-Stop Welding Wi re Feeding System The new 24/7 Non-Stop Welding Wire Feeding System is an automatic switch-over device that provides continuous supply of welding wire for the robotic operation. Developed exclusively for the ProStar 1200 lb Welding Wire PACs, this patent pending system improves efficiency and maximizes profitability. The 24/7 system helps you:
How It Works A butt-welding machine joins the wire-end of the primary wire pack to the wire - s t a rt of the next full pack - this process only takes a few seconds. When the primary pack is empty, the boom automatically switches from the primary pack to the reserve pack, without operator intervention. After replacing the original pack with a new full pack, this operation is then repeated again and again, allowing a continuous, uninterru p ted supply.
Increase Productivity - eliminate wire pack changeover downtime (labor and equipment), and repairs caused by out-of-wire interruptions. Improve Profitability - allows 24/7 utilization of robots and automatic setups. Maximize Savings - particularly useful and convenient in multi-robot cell operations. Save Floor Space - wire pack can be located up to 150 feet from the robot cell. J u s t - I n - Time Inventory - receive your new pack of wire only when you need it.
Dont Run Out Of Wi re - Just In Ti m e Praxair offers the convenience and savings of receiving new packs of wire just before you are running out. A Low Wire Level Sensor can be installed on the side of the wire packs and sends a signal to the robot control panel, indicating the wire is running low. This automatically triggers an e-mail to Praxairs Customer Service, alerting the need of a new shipment. No hassle, just in time.

Higher deposition rates, better penetration, improved sidewall fusion, and an enhanced ability to weld over some mill scale or rust on the plate surface, with less operator skill, are important advantages of these wires. Gas-Shielded Flux-Cored Wires PROSTAR tubular flux-cored wires are used in applications where the base metal thickness is greater than 1/4" and where the parts to be welded have poor fit-up or contain some amount of dirt, oil, rust or mill scale. Self-Shielded Flux-Cored Wires Designed for a work environment subject to crosswinds (i.e. outdoor construction) or for areas where it is difficult to provide cylinders of shielding gas. PROSTAR self-shielded cored wires are formulated to produce their own shielding environment as a result of the decomposition of components present in the core of the wire and neutralization of the nitrogen gas.

Ceriated Tungsten Color Code: Orange Ceriated tungsten is characterized by ease of starting, good arc stability, long life, high current capacity and non-radioactivity. Ceriated electrodes will operate successfully with AC or DC. Zirconiated Tungsten Color Code: Brown Zirconiated tungsten electrodes have characteristics that lay between pure and thoriated electrodes. They are commonly the electrode of choice for AC welding of aluminum and magnesium alloys. Zirconiated tungsten combines the desirable arc stability characteristics and balled end typical of pure tungsten along with the higher current capacity and better arc starting characteristics of thoriated tungsten electro d e s .
Pure Tungsten Color Code: Green These electrodes are used mainly with a l t e rnating current (AC) for welding of aluminum and magnesium alloys. With this type of current, the tip of the pure tungsten electrode forms a clean, balled end, which provides good arc stability. Pure tungsten is more prone to contamination of the weld than the other types of tungsten electrodes.
Thoriated Tungsten Color Code: Red 2% Thoriated tungsten electrodes, are designed for direct current electrode negative (DEN) or straight polarity applications. They maintain a sharpened tip configuration during welding, which is desirable for the welding of steel, nickel alloys, and most alloys other than aluminum and magnesium. Thoriated tungsten electrodes are not normally used with AC welding because it is difficult to maintain the balled end.
Tungsten Electrode Grinder TURBO-SHARP III is an enclosed electrode grinder, which eliminates grinding dust exposure to both the user and the environment. TURBO-SHARP III comes with a metal carrying case containing:

Standard head for diameters: .040 (1.0mm), 1/16 (1.6mm), 3/32 (2.4mm) and 1/8 (3.2mm) Accessory for stationary mounting Adapter for vacuum cleaning Pen-style electrode holder Multi-functional cover Tools for assembling and replacement of grinding wheel User instructions
Grinding tungsten electrodes produces dust and can be radioactive (2% thoriated). TURBO-SHARP III is therefore an enclosed grinder. The dust is captured and cannot be inhaled or blown into the environment. TURBO-SHARP III advantages: Dust cannot be inhaled No environmental damage Can be connected to vacuum system (accessory included with unit)

Brazing The melting temperature of the filler metal is greater than 800 oF but less than the melting temperature of the base metal. For example: Silver brazing, depending on the alloy, has a range of 1045 oF to 1700 oF. The alloy bonds the two metals together when flux, alloy and adequate heat are applied to a clean joint with the proper fit-up. Some alloys require 0.001-0.003 gap in the base metals, while some work best with a gap of 0.005. The alloy is drawn into the joint by capillary action. This requires more attention to be paid to fit-up, flux, and heat in order for this process to be successful. Note: The exception to the flux requirement is Copper-Phosphorus Brazing Alloys. In copper to copper applications, no flux is required but you should back purge the part with nitrogen for an oxide-free surf a c e .

Flame adjustment For soldering and brazing, use a carburizing flame. Solders have tensile strengths of 3,000 to 10,000 psi. Brazing alloys have tensile strengths of 50,000 to 90,000 psi.
Caution Never solder an oxygen line. OSHA and NFPA require brazing. If the line is copper, use PROSTAR 15 with a nitrogen backup at 30 cfh and zero back pressure.

Pro c e d u re Clean weld area if possible. Bevel joint to form a s U groove. A bead hole must be welded at right angles to each end of all cracks to prevent spreading during welding. Select lowest possible amperage. Maintain a medium long arc with electrode tilted slightly in the direction of travel. Short stringer beads or narrow weave beads should be used to prevent excessive heat build-up. When breaking the arc, always fill the crater and drag rod back over the weld deposit. Peening while still hot will help to reduce stress. When restriking the arc, start on pre v i o u s l y deposited weld metal, not on the base material. Allow part to cool slowly.

Procedures Preheat cast iron parts to 600 oF (326 oC). Steels and other materials usually do not re q u i re preheat unless they are complicated and contain excessive stresses. Use stringer beads or narro w weave beads. Remove slag between passes when making multiple layers. Maintain preheat temperature during entire welding operation; when completed, allow part to cool slowly.

Pro c e d u re Clean weld area if possible. Bevel joint to form a s U groove. A bead hole must be welded at right angles to each end of all cracks to prevent spreading during welding. Select lowest possible amperage. Maintain a medium long arc with electrode tilted slightly in the direction of travel. Short stringer beads or narrow weave beads should be used to prevent excessive heat build-up. When breaking the arc, always fill the crater and drag rod back over the weld deposit. Peening while still hot will help to reduce stress. When restriking the arc, start on previously deposited weld metal, not on the base material. Allow part to cool slowly.
MG 289 - AC or DC reverse polarity (electrode positive) For use on dirty cast iron like sewer pipe, machine bases, transmission or gear housings, sprockets, repair of build-up on gears and any repair of cast iron to steel.

Pro c e d u re On heavy sections remove worn, cracked metal s and bevel joint using MG 570 or a grinding wheel. When repairing cracks, drill stop hole at either end to prevent crack travel while welding. On very heavy sections, preheat to approximately 400 oF. Use short stringer beads for root pass and peen lightly after removing slag. Use a short to medium arc and the lowest amperage possible to minimize base metal overheating. When breaking arc, always back-whip into weld crater. Weaving two times rod diameter is acceptable for cover beads on multi-pass work. Weld joints should be allowed to slowly cool for maximum strength and machinability.

Pro c e d u re In most cases, preheating or postheating will s not be necessary, but in cold weather or when special machining qualities are desired, the part should be preheated to 400 oF (204 oC). Stringer beads and intermittent welds should be employed to reduce stress and cracks; peening while still hot also helps reduce these problems. Allow part to cool slowly.

Pro c e d u re Area to be welded should be clean and free of s surface contamination such as rust, scale, grease, etc. On DC, use reverse polarity (electrode +). Preheat of 300 o-450 o should be employed with heavy sections and hardenable grades of base metal. For highest x-ray quality, maintain a short arc gap. On vert ical welds, start at bottom and weave slightly while pausing at the edges. For root passes, set a minimum gap (3/32" for 1/6" electrodes), and run stringer beads. For fill and cover passes, a weaving technique is best employed.
Pro c e d u re Clean weld area. Parts 1/8" or heavier should s be beveled 70o-90o. No preheat is necessary on thin gauges but faster, flatter, smoother welds are produced on heavier sections if they are preheated to approximately 400 oF (205 oC). Hold electrode vertical to workpiece, maintain a short arc and fast travel speed. Use either stringer beads or weaving technique. Remove slag between passes. Restart arc on existing weld deposits. Allow p a rt to cool slowly. Chip off all slag before quenching. For complete slag removal use a wire brush with a 10% sulfuric acid and hot water solution. Rinse with clean hot water.
MG 540 - AC or DC reverse polarity (electrode negative) For tramp and problem steels high in sulphur, phosphorus or other elements added to improve the machinability of the steel. Tensile Strength Diameter 3/32" 1/8" 5/32" Amperage 60-100 110-150 140-200 Up to 80,000 psi (56 kg/mm2)

Pro c e d u re Area to be welded should be cleaned thoroughly. s Surface contamination must be removed and bevel or chamfer where required. Maintain close arc length. Vertical joints should be welded from bottom up, using rapid weave technique. Do not whip. Use drag technique to make horizontal fillet welds. Slag is easily removed.
MG Super 600 - AC or DC reverse polarity (electrode positive) Due to its exceptional strength and crack resistance, it is ideal for repairing tools, spring steel, and any dissimilar metal combinations.

Pro c e d u re s Remove as much foreign material as practical from the weld area. DC reverse polarity (electrode +) produces deep penetration; DC straight polarity (electrode -) will have limited penetration and a flatter bead. AC prevents arc blow. A medium arc length should be maintained with either stringer or weave beads. Slag is easily removed with a light chipping hammer.

MGI093425857342 MGI093425857441
Pro c e d u re The area in which the weld is to be made should s be free of rust, grease, paint and other materials which cause weld contamination. A 90o V joint should be used when joining heavy sections. Preheat is necessary only for high carbon steels, which should be preheated to 350 oF (204 oC). The interpass temperature should be kept below 500 oF (260 oC). Alignment should be maintained by the use of fixtures, tack welds or other types of mechanical support. Maintain a short arc length and use stringer beads. Avoid weaving whenever possible.

Shade numbers are given as a rule of thumb. It is recommended to begin with a shade that is too dark to see the weld zone. Then one should go to a lighter shade which gives sufficient view of the weld zone without going below the minimum. In gas welding or oxygen cutting where the torch produces a high yellow light, it is desirable to use a filter lens that absorbs the yellow or sodium line in the visible light of operation (spectrum). These values apply where the actual arc is clearly seen. Experience has shown that light filters may be used when the arc is hidden by the workpiece.
PROSTAR Lenses for Every Application PROSTAR has a full line of filter lenses and cover lenses for the welding, cutting and metalworking industry. Clear, green and colored filter lenses meet or exceed the optical and impact requirements of ANSI Z87.1 and CSA. Only filter lenses that are marked with the correct numerical infrared filtering shade will provide protection against infrared radiation and ultraviolet light. Protection from these hazards is provided only to the shade number designated on the lens.

Face Shields
Applications and Safety Read this section completely before selecting face shield. Face shields provide limited face and eye protection. Face shields provide supplementary eye protection against light impact such as small particles of dust, splash from non-hazardous liquids, glare (tinted shades only) and moderate heat. They are effective against sparks and small clippings, and metal machining chips, spot-welding, non-injurious liquids, moderate heat sources and similar applications. Face shields are breakable. Clean only with mild soap and lukewarm water. For further information, see American National Institute Standard ANSI Z89.1 available from American National Standards Institute at 1430 Broadway, New York, NY 10018

Fibre-Metal High Perf o rmance Face Shields Made from Noryl, the same material used in Fibre-Metals welding helmets. High P e rf o rmance face shields are stronger, more durable and more heat resistant then ordinary face shields. They contain the exclusive channel grip system, which mounts windows and locks them in place in a deep recessed channel to form a perfect seal from dust, dirt and debris. Available with choice of 3-C headgear or three protective cap-mounting mechanisms. Fibre-Metal High Performance Face Shield W n d o w s i High Perf o rmance windows are injection molded from propionate, which is superior to other window materials in every significant perf o rmance characteristic. All windows are .060" thick for an extra m a rgin of protection, yet they cost no more than ordinary .040" thick windows. Note: Face shields must always be w o rn over primary eye protection, such as goggles or spectacles.

Applications and Safety Read this section completely before selecting protective caps. Protective caps do not provide unlimited head protection. Protective caps provide top of head protection against small falling objects striking the top of the shell and against light bumps. They are effective against small tools, small pieces of wood, bolts and nuts, rivets, and sparks from overhead work and similar hazards. Protective caps reduce only the amount of force from an impact blow.
Protective Caps
Protective caps and hats do not provide complete head protection from severe impact blows. Protection from side and rear impact is less than top impact. Good safety practices must be used when working in areas that present these hazards. Never alter or modify the shell or suspension system in a pro t e ctive cap. Always use the original manufacture rs shells, suspensions, and accessories. The mixing of these components may reduce the products effectiveness. Protective caps should be inspected frequently, and immediately replace the suspension and/or shell at the first sign of wear or damage. Clean only with mild soap and lukewarm water. For further information, see American National Institute Standard (ANSI-Z89.1) available from American National Standards Institute at 1430 Broadway, New York, NY 10018. SC-3 and SC-6 Meets ANSI Z89.1 Class A, B and C. Also Federal Specifications GGG-H-177B.

Water Soluble Paper and Tape
Introduction Aquasol has significantly improved purge chamber technology in Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding applications. Traditional cardboard purging systems are time-consuming and often leave dangerous residues upon removal. Bladders require excess argon gas, due to the distance of the bladder from the weld area. The bulkiness of bladders and cones results in inherent storage and transport concerns. Description Aquasol is made of Sodium Carboxy Methyl cellulose and wood pulp that dissolves rapidly and completely in most liquids including water. Aquasol can be used to dam Argon or Helium gases during Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding of steel or aluminum pipes. After welding is complete, Aquasol purge dams eff o rtlessly dissolve by flushing the system with water or steam; leaving no residue in the pipeline.

Aquasol comes in a wide range of grades and sizes, permitting the construction of purge dams for literally any pipe diameter. The product is available in a variety of formats including sheets, rolls and pressure-sensitive tapes. It is extremely easy to store, environmentally friendly and non-toxic.
EZ ZONETM Tape EZ ZONETM Tape is designed with an adhesive-free center ZONE preventing the adhesive from coming in contact with the weld area. Aluminum welding tape is used to seal the root gap between pipes, ensuring minimal gas loss during purging - but, unlike conventional tape, EZ ZONETM Tape creates a contaminant-free weld that is efficient, economical and heatresistant.
