What is rectifier welding machine?
A welding rectifier takes in the a/c output of a welding transformer, and the output is d/c. Used with old school welding transformers which were all a/c, in order to get d/c for use with low hydrogen rods etc.
What is V-I characteristics of zener diode?
Work in reverse bias.(breakdown at a particular voltage to keep the volt. constant so used as voltage regulator) same as diode when forward biased.
What is the power rating of 500 amperes welding machine?
Welding is done with a high current and low voltage. The voltage of a 500 amp welder might be 10 v so the power rating in that case would be 5000 watts.
Is mutual flux in transformer constant for all loads?
The flux is set by the voltage applied to the transformer. In most applications, the voltage is constant, and therefore the flux is constant also.
What is difference between stabilizer and voltage regulator?
A voltage regulator is a circuit or device designed to deliver a constant voltage at its output regardless of changes in load current.A voltage stabilizer is a circuit or device designed to deliver a constant voltage at its output regardless of changes in incoming voltage.
How can you select the current values for welding?
The amount of current (amps) is controlled by the user. It's done with a variable resistor. Another thing to note is whether you are welding constant current or constant voltage. If you are welding constant current, the voltage will vary and a set Amp measure will remain constant. With constant voltage, the current will vary and that's determined by the resistance. Constant voltage should be an easier set up. I'm not 100% sure but most stick welding is constant current, which is why increasing the arc length produces more heat, because more arc length should increase the resistance, which would cause the welding machine to increase voltage to keep the current constant.
How does a welding transformer work?
A welding transformer uses the alternating current supplied to the welding shop at a high voltage to produce the low voltage welding power
What is typical open circuit voltage for an arc welding machine?
voltage available to the welding current via the machine
Why is sma welding current referred to as constant current?
because the current is regulated rather than the voltage all the motions are controlled by movement that has been programmed. you cant see whats going on with the arc so to make adjustments you have to reprogram the motion after you stop and see what happened. perhaps you can set it for constant voltage and get better results. perhaps constant voltage is better for different materials. most smaller wire feeds are constant voltage which tends to keep the arc length constant. the operator can watch what he doing if he can see the arc and can make all manner of small adjustments. without reprogramming the controls. stick welding is possible because you can watch what you are doing to keep arc length constant the machines are almost always constant current
What is the welding for MIG welding?
mig welding is Metal Inert Gas welding. it typically uses Constant voltage DC+ current. It uses a wire feeder that supplies the electrode to the weld puddle and shields the molten weld puddle with inert gas (argon/co2 blend). Filler wire and shielding gas depend on the metal being welded.
What component of a welding machine changes AC current to DC current?
Yes, it is normal for a welding machine to convert AC voltage to a DC voltage.
Can you use a mig welder to tig weld?
No Unless you have a newer model welder that is CC & CV, and then they do not do aluminum unless you get into the high end inverter models. Wire welding uses the CV (constant Voltage) and tig is CC (constant current)
What is a general formula for welding output current and voltage relationship for MMA welding machines?
V= 0.05 i + 10 for mmaw welding v= 0.05 i + 20 for tig welding
What type of circuit in which voltage is constant?
A mercury battery will provide constant voltage. A voltage regulator circuit will also.
Constant voltage power supplies will maintain a constant voltage under varying?
current.
What is the output impedance of a constant voltage source and constant current source?
The output impedance is z= V/I, the ratio of the constant voltage and the constant current source.
How you can change a constant DC voltage to a variable DC voltage?
By installing the varialble resistor in the circuit,the constant dc voltage would change .
