MIG Welding

1、Process Introduction | What problems can gas shielded welding solve?

High speed deposition: solid wire with a diameter of 1.2 mm, with a deposition rate of 5 kg/h at a current of 300 A, which is three times faster than manual arc welding
Thin to thick plate: 0.8mm automotive plate -60mm thick plate with multiple layers, fully covered by one device
Low spatter: pulse/dual pulse mode, spatter amount ≤ 1 g/min, almost no cleaning after welding
All position: robot six axes+external axis, programming for flat, horizontal, vertical, vertical, and circumferential seams in one go
Wide range of materials: carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper silicon alloy, heterogeneous steel (Q355+304L) can be formed in one go
