Using the correct procedures and filler material they can both have the same strength. P.S. both are considered "arc welding"
Arc length is the distance from the tip of the electrode to the workpiece.
It is the rate at which the welding rod is melted and deposited on the work being welded
To control distortion in welding, it's important to use proper clamping and fixturing to hold the workpieces in place during the process. Preheating the materials can help reduce thermal gradients, while selecting appropriate welding sequences and techniques, such as stringer beads or weaving patterns, can minimize heat input. Additionally, allowing for controlled cooling and using filler materials with low shrinkage properties can further mitigate distortion. Regularly monitoring and adjusting parameters throughout the welding process is also crucial for maintaining dimensional accuracy.
Most stick welding SMAW is done with Direct Current DC. As this current passes thru the base metal it can set up a circular current on either side of the weld area creating a magnetic effect. The arc is affected by this and whips back and forth drawn by this magnetic field. Metal is blown out of the arc and splatters onto the sides of the weld and the arc is hard to control. This arc blow can be reduced by passing a separate magnetic field thru the metal nullifying the effect, or by welding in the opposite direction, or by using Alternating Current AC
The 'arc' in arc welding is not an acronym but in turn is a reference to the electric arc that is being generated during the welding process.
The heat input in the case of Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) is higher than that in manual welding process. Reason is that the welding proceeds continuously while the work is rotated. In manual welding, it is controlled by the welder besides the time gap for changeover of electrode, relaxation by operator etc.
If you are asking for the correct nomenclature it is Shielded Metal Arc Welding.
The electric arc temperature in industrial welding processes directly affects the efficiency of the process. Higher arc temperatures can lead to faster melting of metals and better penetration, resulting in faster and more effective welding. However, excessively high temperatures can also cause issues like spattering and distortion of the metal, reducing efficiency. Therefore, maintaining the right balance of arc temperature is crucial for optimizing the efficiency of industrial welding processes.
Almost all welding today is done with electricity (Arc Welding) even on cast iron. SMAW, GTAW, GMAW etc. --AW means Arc Welding.
Yes, arc welding does create ozone. It is because the temperatures created during arc welding convert the nearby oxygen to ozone.

ARC welding uses large amounts of electricity to melt the metal, not a hot flame. So no, LPG cannot be used for ARC welding.

Welding Electrorodes or Welding Rods are used in arc welding. Arc welding is a special type of welding which uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between the base material (e.g. steel) and the electrode. The Welding Ectrorodes can be used for all weldable aluminum and mild steel.
The relationship between electrical arc temperature and the efficiency of welding processes is that higher arc temperatures generally lead to more efficient welding. This is because higher temperatures can melt metals more quickly and thoroughly, allowing for better fusion and stronger welds. However, excessively high temperatures can also lead to issues such as spattering and distortion, so it is important to find the right balance for each welding application.
