What does DCEP mean in SMAW?
Direct current electrode positive
What is SMAW process?
SMAW stands for Shielded Metal Arc Welding. This process uses electrodes with flux coating, which release gases to surround the weld metal, thereby preventing oxidation.
What do mean by flux and slag?
In (SMAW) Shielded Metal Arc Welding 'stick welding': Flux is the substance added to to molten metals to bond with impurities that can be readily removed. Slag is the waste material which is removed.
What is the 4 classification pf basic handtools in SMAW?
The four classifications of basic hand tools used in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) are cutting tools (such as oxy-fuel torches and plasma cutters), shaping tools (like chisels and hammers), fastening tools (including clamps and pliers), and measuring tools (such as tape measures and squares). Each classification serves a specific purpose in preparing, manipulating, and finishing materials for welding. Proper selection and use of these tools are essential for achieving quality welds and ensuring safety during the welding process.
The two types of welds are?
TIG uses tungsten in a gun and electricity to melt the material, the user must manually add filler rod. Needs shielding gas Mig uses a gun, but the filler rod flows out of the gun. Electricity flows from tip of wire into material. needs shielding gas except with flux-cored wire. SMAW uses pre fluxed electrodes. electricity flows trough electrode holder, into material when material is scraped by electrode. No shielding gas. Oxy-fuel. Flame welding. Oxygen and a fuel (acetylene, propane, mapp, etc.) are mixed in a torch, ignited, and used to melt material. filler wire is manually added. There are more indepth explanations, and advanced machines, but that is the basics.
What are smaw welding?
smaw welding is sheilded metal arc welding
What is the minimum thickness of metal normally welded using the smaw process?
The minimum thickness for SMAW welding is about 18 ga. with a steady hand.
What are the advantages of SMAW?
Advantage of smaw :*equipment is relatively inexpensive Equipment is portable because the welding machine can be powered with gasoline or diesel powered w/ engines.

Why is a transformer rectifier often prefferred for smaw?
SMAW stands for shielded metal arc welding. The rectifier used in the welding machines must be referring to this type welding.
