The XMT 350 CC/CV and XMT 450 CC/CV multiprocess welding power sources are capable of MIG, stick, TIG and
flux-cored welding, along with air carbon arc cutting and gouging, and provide the flexibility of a 14-pin connection for spool guns, feeders and remote controls.
ESAB WELDING & CUTTING PRODUCTS reports it has introduced PrimeWeld, a new series of copper-free, seamless
flux-cored welding wires designed to meet the needs of the offshore construction industry.
The helmets are described as ideal for stick, TIG, pulsed TIG, MIG, pulsed MIG and
flux-cored welding, as well as gouging and grinding.
Slag is a naturally occurring part of
flux-cored welding, caused when the molten flux from the wire core solidifies on top of the weld.
After using mostly
flux-cored welding wire, with a few cells using solid wire, Miller converted most of its cells to metal-cored wire, specifically Tri-Mark Metalloy 76 from Hobart Brothers, Troy, OH.
Meeting world demand for carbon steel
flux-cored welding wire
In the Ranger 10,000 Plus welders, 9 kW of continuous ac/dc power is provided along with stick, basic TIG, MIG and
flux-cored welding capabilities.
Flux-cored welding uses self-shielded wire with flux inside (as opposed to MIG' solid wire), eliminating the need for gas.
Esab announced the introduction of two new wires to its Dual Shield II Series of
flux-cored welding consumables.
The engine-driven welder handles a variety of basic welding jobs with 225 amp/25 volt welding output for stick, TIG, MIG and
flux-cored welding as well as arc gouging.
Lincoln uses its Chopper Technology to push 500 amps of de power at 100% duty cycle for stick, TIG, MIG or
flux-cored welding processes.
