Consumable electrode welding contain the processes where the electrode acts as the filler material and the electrode that generates the arc. Because the electrode is also the filler material, the electrode 'burns' or is consumed, hence consumable electrode.

What maybe F No and A No in welding specification?
F numbers for consumable identification and A Number is deposited weld metal analysis
Is it necessary to do the inspection of material and welding consumable used for the Welder qualification test?

Shielded metal arc welding is sometimes called welding?
It is sometimes called "stick welding", because of the filler metal. The filler metal is in the form of heavy wire coated with flux.
Mig welding or arc welding?
Technically speaking, MIG welding is arc welding because it uses an intensely hot electrical arc to heat and join the metal together. Usually arc welding means stick welding. The difference between the processes is the manner in which the filler metal is applied. With MIG welding, the filler metal is usually applied with a wire fed through a gun type device with an inert gas such as argon shielding the weld. Arc (or stick) welding uses a solid electrode of the same type of metal as is being joined shielded by a layer of flux. The method of welding depends on the user's skill and what is to be welded.
What is non fusion welding and types?
non fusion welding is when there is no filler metal needed...Actually all welding is considered fusion welding, meaning the material fuses together unlike soldering. The material has to melt to fuse.
What is consumable electrodes?
That would refer to your tungsten electrode in TIG welding
What is the difference between a consumable electrode process and a non consumable?
Consumable electrodes actually form the filler metal of a weld. Stick and wire are examples of a consumable electrode. TIG on the other hand only produces the arc for the weld, and the filler metal is fed into it. The tungsten (the electrode) of a TIG torch does not enter the weld.
When to use dc welding machine and ac welding machine?
Dc welding can be used for non consumable electrodes with consumable electrode heat is transferred from electrode to work by molten metal. Ac welding is desirable for aluminum and magnesium, because it helps break up oxides AC is more stable than Dc.
What welding process uses a non consumable electrode?
consumable is when the rod or other metal is also used up in the weld, like common mig welding. Non consumable would be like forms of tig welding that don't use any rods or other metals to join the 2 materials together. This is the Distance
Definition of argon welding?
A.K.A. Gas Metal Arc Welding -- Semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun.
What maybe F No and A No in welding specification?
F numbers for consumable identification and A Number is deposited weld metal analysis
What is the name of non consumable electrode?
There are no , non -consumable electrodes, there are slower consumed electrodes, as in TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding in which a Tungsten electrode is used , and in the hands of a very skilled welder , last the longest of all electrodes , but are in the end consumed.
What the meaning of MPI in welding?
The meaning of MPI in welding is Magnetic Particle Inspection.
What Gas is metal?
The gas metal arc welding that is also called the metal inert gas. It is a welding process whereby the electric arc forms between the work piece metals and the consumable wire electrode.
Is it necessary to do the inspection of material and welding consumable used for the Welder qualification test?

What is the meaning of consumable supplies?
The meaning of consumable supplies is supplies that are used without being returned after the stores issued it. It also describes supplies that are combined with other supplies but lose all recognition.
What is the purpose of gas in MIG welding?
Metal inert gas (MIG) welding, is a process upon where a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun. If this is not enough information, there are many great articles about it on the web.
