Ilmapulvolyöhitsaus

Ilmapulvolyöhitsaus, also known as gas shielded arc welding or GSAW, is a common welding process used in various industrial applications. This technique utilizes a continuously fed consumable wire electrode that is shielded by a flow of inert or semi-inert gas. The gas prevents atmospheric contamination of the molten weld pool, which is crucial for creating strong and high-quality welds. As the arc travels along the joint, it melts both the base metal and the filler wire, forming a molten pool that solidifies into a weld. The common gases used include argon, helium, and mixtures of argon with carbon dioxide or oxygen. The choice of gas depends on the type of metal being welded and the desired weld properties. Ilmapulvolyöhitsaus is known for its high deposition rates, good weld appearance, and ability to be automated, making it efficient for mass production. It is widely applied in shipbuilding, construction, automotive manufacturing, and general fabrication. The process can be used on a variety of metals, including steel, aluminum, and stainless steel.
