A huge variety of electrodes are available. MMA, SMAW, STICK WELDING are all the same process. Electrodes are produced to weld almost all metal and metal alloys. From steel to cast iron to aluminum to stainless steel to monels to ???? If it can be STICK WELDED an Electrode is made to do the job.
MMA stands for manual Metal Arc welding. In short "arc welding" and can be used in either AC or DC mode. Usually incorperated with Mig, Tig and plasma cutters for arc welding machines as an optional extra. submitted by Ken.Benson - Clarke. sales@edacomputers.co.uk from saffon walden, essex, uk.
V= 0.05 i + 10 for mmaw welding v= 0.05 i + 20 for tig welding
smaw and tig(gtaw) are using CC source. because these both types using manual wire feeding. so welder can not able to maintain constant arc length. change in arc length will change voltage. so it needs power supply which should not affected by this arc length = voltage changes. that's why CC type is used for these process. in CC type source change in voltage will not change current much.

3 FEATURES OF FLUX CORED ELECTRODES Flux cored electrodes combine the advantages of several of the welding processes we have discussed earlier. As with coated electrodes, the flux improves the weld metal chemi- cal composition and mechanical properties. As in gas metal arc welding and submerged arc welding, productivity is increased because the electrode is continuous. 7.3.0.1 Flux cored electrodes may be used for welding carbon steels, low alloy high strength steels, and the high strength quenched and tempered steels. They are also used for welding stainless steels and abrasion resistant steels. These will be covered in subse- quent lessons. 7.3.1 Functions of the Flux Ingredients - As with coated ingredients, each manufac- turer has his own formulas for the flux ingredients. The composition of the flux core can be varied to provide electrodes for specific applications. 7.3.1.1 The basic functions of the flux ingredients are: a) Deoxidizers and Denitrifiers - Since nitrogen and oxygen can cause porosity or brittleness, deoxidizers such as manganese and silicon are added. In the case of self-shielded electrodes, denitrifiers such as aluminum are added. Both help to purify the weld metal. b) Slag Formers - Slag formers such as oxides of calcium, potassium, silicon or so- dium are added to protect the molten weld puddle from the atmosphere. The slag aids in improving the weld bead shape and "fast freezing" slags help hold the weld puddle for out-of-position welding. The slag also retards the cooling rate, especially important when welding the low alloy steels. c) Arc Stabilizers - Elements, such as potassium and sodium, help produce a smooth arc and reduce spatter. d) Alloying Elements - Alloying elements, such as molybdenum, chromium, carbon, manganese, nickel, and vanadium, are used to increase strength, ductility, hardness and toughness. e) Gasifiers - Minerals, such as fluorspar and limestone, are usually used to form a shielding gas in the self-shielded type wires.
