What does DCEP mean in SMAW?
Direct current electrode positive
What is SMAW?
Shielded Metal Arc Welding, known colloquially as "stick".
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.
Which process will lead to larger work output isothermal process or polytropic process with n1.25?
The process equation for this is PV up to the nth power which equals C. The polytrophic process is 1.25 which is the n in the equation.
What is reversible and irreversible process?
Very simple The Reversible Process: That type of process that work cycle, it mean to complete revolution and come back to the initial point from where it start. Example are Carnot Cycle. Two and Four stroke engine. Irreversible Process: Opposite to reversible process called irreversible process. Example are Electricity
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 advantages of SMAW process?
Advantage of smaw :*equipment is relatively inexpensive Equipment is portable because the welding machine can be powered with gasoline or diesel powered w/ engines.
In SMAW Welding Process DCEP and DCRP are same?
yes Electrode Positive is the same as Reverse Polarity
What are smaw welding?
smaw welding is sheilded metal arc welding
What Filler metal is used for p-91 Chrome?
For GTAW Process use ER90-B9 and for the SMAW Process use E 9018-B9, or E 9015-B9
What is a welding chipping hammer?
A welding chipping hammer is a hand held tool, like yourself. It is used for removing slag after the SMAW or flux core process.
What are the advantage of SMAW process?
Advantage of smaw :*equipment is relatively inexpensive Equipment is portable because the welding machine can be powered with gasoline or diesel powered w/ engines.
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.
How do you calculate nomber of electrode in SMAW welding?
no need
What is arc temperature during smaw welding?
5000
What welding process is used to weld cast iron?
arc welding such as SMAW (stick), GMAW (mig). Some cast metals may be brazed for certain applications. The actual properties of the Cast metal will be needed for the type of electrode and/or process.
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.
