Argon gas lines, PVC tubing??
Argon gas lines, PVC tubing??
(OP)
We have an automatic GTAW welder that is having a problem with arc starting and Tungsten contamination. Its a Intellitig 4 by Miller. I just noticed that the lines that carry the Argon to the machine are PVC Type 1, grey plumbing tubing. Could that be contributing to the problem??





RE: Argon gas lines, PVC tubing??
I think you shall look at folowing points:
-Electrical connection
-Arc regulator
-type of electrode
-grinding way of the electrode
-Magnetisme (most of the time for big structures
Do you use an other polarity than DC-? I mean like controled alternaif for material like aluminium.
