Deposition rate in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is controlled through different process variables. These variables include wire feed speed (WFS) and travel speed. By increasing WFS, more filler material will be deposited per inch of weld while other variables remain the same. By decreasing travel speed, more filler material will be deposited per inch of weld, while other variables remain the same. Combining the two (changing both variables as described) will increasing the deposition rate even more.

How do you calculate wire feed speed in MIG welding?

Wire feed speed in MIG welding is calculated by multiplying the welding current by the wire feed rate. This formula helps determine the speed at which the welding wire is fed into the weld pool during the welding process.

MIG welding compared to flux core welding?

Flux core is a type of MIG welding.... please kind of know what your talking about before you ask a question.... Gas assisted solid mig wire welding is neater and cleaner. There are two types of flux core mig welding that you are talking about. 1. Gasless flux core mig wire 2. Shielded flux cored welding wire, uses a shielding gas as well. Most likely you are talking about the gasless mig wire. look here for more info: www.learn-how-to-weld.com/gasless-mig-wire.html
