Correctly selected welding electrodes, as well as an inverter start, is all that you need to organize a small welding workshop right in your garage
Inverters – a new word in welding technique. They appeared relatively long ago, some models have been performed for ten years, but they began to get real popularity only recently. Just fifteen years ago, welding was such an energy -intensive procedure that only the largest industrial centers could afford electric welding. In order to provide the welding machine with high -quality electricity, it was necessary to attach it to the wire that withstanding a huge load.
However, a modern inverter start is a compact device that can be worn on the shoulder without problems. The weight of the device does not exceed several kilograms. It works for a regular electric power supply network. At the same time, the device does not create an excess load on the electric network and can even operate on the network, the voltage in which “sags” up to 180 volts. The device is extremely easy to handle: just connect terminals, electrode, and start work.
The device is equipped with high -tech systems that greatly simplify the welding process. Anyone who at least once varied metal had to face the phenomenon of “sticking” the electrode to the welded surface with prolonged welding. This is due to the fact that the electrode itself heats up to a high temperature and begins to melt, sticking at the site of the weld. To get rid of this problem allows a gradual reduction in power. The automation of the inverter reduces the voltage when the welding process lasts a long time. As a result, the welder is delivered from the problem of sticking.
Another important point is the right welding electrodes. The quality of welding depends on the selection of electrodes. It is necessary to choose them based on the welding method, metals that will be welded, as well as from their own financial capabilities. As a rule, the cheapest electrodes are the worst, quickly consumed and summarize the welder.
As you know, the price of gas welding is the highest, and the technological process is very difficult. Welding is carried out using additional equipment, which can be used together with the standard inverter. A more budget option – normal welding using electrodes. This method is so easy to master that many residents of country houses and garages have acquired inverters.
