At my school, we're are taught to have our rod's travel angle to an upwards 10-15 degrees when doing a vertical 3f; I do that or a straight 90 degree angle, but keep sloping the edge of my rod to make it look like a sharpened pencil. Any tips to fix this?
@profrioux3 жыл бұрын
When travelling in the vertical up position, common practice is to use a 10 to 15 degree rod angle, you can make fine adjustments as you travel upwards to create your desired results you are looking for. Your comment about the electrode pencil sharpener look, I can only assume you are referring to the finger nail at the end as you weld the electrode gets consumed but there is some flux extending past, this is normal. If it does interfere with your welding while welding just rotate your wrist to adjust for the finger nail, when you restart your weld just take your thumb and break it off to expose the core of the electrode for easier starts...be sure to have your glove on.

Take courses at a community college. It's all about trial and error. If you don't like a weld, ask yourself, "Where did I start to go wrong? What can I do to improve?" and just keep practicing. Good paying welds take time and practice.

it is a skill that will need to practiced, the more time with proper direction is key to success. College or some type of welding school or union may be able to help with your success!!

Hi, in uphill 7018 can't be dragged upward without the v shape at the root pass?
@profrioux2 жыл бұрын
no you should not drag up hill, this should be a leading angle. Some people will do what is referred to as stringers on a vertical up or you can weave it in.

How many amps you use
@profrioux2 жыл бұрын
Depends on many factors, material thickness, electrode size and machine type

I keep reading 105-120 but the miller machine I'm working with seems to work best at 92, otherwise I melt the metal.

@@dylanjmorrison any amperage is just a guide to get you started or in the ballpark. Every machine will run slightly different, depending on resistance and resent calibration among other variables. If it works best at a lower amperage and you are getting the proper penetration for the task at hand, stay with it
