Mig Welders

MIG WELDING EQUIPMENT

MIG welders are ideal for welding from a variety of awkward positions. MIGs require less operator skill and longer welds can be made without stopping and starting. There is also minimal cleaning required afterwards.

Shielding gas makes the arc plasma and stabilizes the arc on the metal that is being welded, which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to melt, and join.

Along with the wire electrode, a shielding gas feeds through the welding gun, which shields the process from contaminants in the air. The process can be semi-automatic or automatic. A constant voltage, direct current power source is most commonly used , but constant current systems, as well as alternating current, can be used.

Originally developed for welding aluminum and other non-ferrous materials but can also be applied to steels because it provides faster welding time compared to other welding processes. It is the most common industrial welding process, preferred for its versatility, speed and the relative ease of adapting the process to robotic automation.

With the advent of pulsed MIG welding, smart appearing welds are now possible on aluminium metals.  If you are looking to do any amount of Aluminium MIG welding please check out the Jasic 350P and Cebora pulsed MIG welders.
