This man is an excellent welder! If you are really wanting more of the science behind why what he is doing works please open up and read more on my comments. I have been welding for 15 years plus. I just want to pass along some of what I have been taugh and some of what I'v learned the hard way. But with as skilled as he is I am sure he would agree I am just passing along rock solid proven practices.

Just got my AWS D1.5 certs thanks to these videos and lots of practice. As a gift to myself i bought a Miller 211 Auto-set 110/240 mig welder. Thanks Miller!

With this prep and fit-up (3/8" mild steel plates, 37.5 degree bevels (75 degree included angle), 3/32" gap and land), these are my approximate settings. Just know that it may vary depending on the welder and welding machine, but this should at least get you in the ballpark so-to-speak. Using 30-35 cfh C25 gas and .035" ER70S-6 wire. Keep a short wire stickout of no more than about 1/2" throughout each pass. Preferably 1/4"-1/2" stickout. Root pass: 17.3-17.5 V and 240-250 ipm WFS (slight weave side-to-side at front edge of puddle is necessary if your gap is a little on the wider side of 3/32" or close to 1/8", but if it's a tight 3/32" you should not need to weave as seen in this video rather shoot the wire straight into the gap and work your way up on the front edge of the puddle). Filler pass: 18.0 V and 220-240 ipm WFS. Cap pass: 18.0 V and 220-240 ipm WFS. Keep in mind that it's usually always better to run your passes with as much WFS (hotter weld) as you can control because it will usually correlate to a more successful guided bend test.

Could you provide the Voltage and Wire Speed settings for all three passes? I noticed a slight side to side motion for the root pass, never thought to try that... These videos are very helpful in that you can really see what the tip of the electrode is doing. Thanks a bunch guys!

I want to see the actual bending,face bend,root bend and side bend.but it is an awesome weld,good hand manipulation,thanks for the video it's very clear.

thanks for uploading this process. Now I know to have my line of sight above the weld . I had my line of sight level with the tip in front of me. Nice to see the use of the zig zag too with little or no pause on first two passes and final pass had a pause on the sides. My mig welds were lousy, but now should improve.

Cool! First time see such beautiful 3G welding. 100% thumbs up. Please show us more in other positions.

When first welding uphill with a mig rember you are using DC. DC creates more arc blow if at all possible put your ground where you are moving toward your ground, that will minimize arc blow. Clean the area you are going to ground at just as well as the weld joint mig welders don't care if the ground breaks up they just keep pushing wire! Often times only about a 10-15% reduction in heat is all you need as compared to flat for out of position mig work. Setting the welder to cold and not traveling fast enough can cause heat build up. You are rising up the joint and so is the heat. This is often indicated by the first inch or 2 looking pretty good then the weld becomes hard to control and problems with sag and under cut start happening! Hope I have helped someone have a nice day.

Please clarfiy, are you asking, "Is that a MIG machine?" or "What MIG machine is used?" Or are looking for more of these beyond the MIG process?

Very nice job, Bravo! nice even weld great penetration on the root and very nice even cap with no sag or undercut! People should pay close attention your settings for this weld were great! Your puddle was just the right fluidity. It froze up enough to not run out but still followed you enough to prevent undercut. Diffrent machines on diffrent power makes posting exact settings he used not practical. Watch the video and look for what I pionted out in his welds and yours. 50% of quality from mig welds comes from properly setting the welder.

perfect settings!! makes all the difference

If you're using a pipe works 400 series these are the settings I use, Root 16-16.5v WS175 arc control 15-25% F/C passes, 17.5~v 165WS arc control at 30-50% for a flatter more washed cap. Thats what works for sst on that with co2 I find. But my lincoln is way different

voltage , wire speed ?

3G single V groove weld, for a straight mig weld on plate? What cert is this for? All structural welds I've ever done are in the 3G-F position w/2 stop starts

What your voltage and wirespeed on the root, pass and cap

Can you do a video of setup and weld of a 6gr weld groove test

hola, queria agradecerte y felicitarlos por el video, muy bien editado y queria hacerte una pregunta, a cuantos voltios y ampers estan soldando.....

Ola aquí en México donde se puede tomar un curso en este proceso y q espesor tiene la placa?

Oneday he is a legend.

Hi, I wanted to ask politely if you can show me what the position of the body and hands to have a good stability, or if you use supports or if it's completely free hand to get a good weld. thank you

His beads look great, but I bet he goes through lenses like crazy with how close he is to his work

How many ampere & speedwire rootpass , 2ndpass & caping ?

congratulations, so good

That root pass was ropey but that cover pass was a stack of dimes. Nice.

Did u walk the cup or nozzle for the root pass? I rewind and rewind and rewind but really not sure on my guess.

Wich wire u using..i mean 1.2? 0.8?

amperage and voltage one size or changed

great work.

Is the weave technique demonstrated here used with fluxcore as well?

That was a sexy cover pass

excelent welding.

what is a good setting or settings used in this video

good job

could you do a vertical up video with innershield please? i went to a shipyard to do a vertical v groove with back plate test and failed badly :( i think i might have gone too fast or maybe my stickout was wrong.i did something wrong. my welds came out looking like long caterpillars.

Hi I am looking for some videos mainly flux core..either core eight or something like a 232 looking for vertical test root pass

Been trying to learn this, just can't get the setting right. Any tips on the settings? My machine doesn't have digi

Nice wilder'

Muy bueno es mi oficio

What better welding up hill or down hill

:59 Why are the sparks flying in reverse? (Dude on the right) Downhill weld playing backwards?

what were the settings this welder used for his root pass? also what was the root opening and knife edge or a slight land?

Philip - see our Welding Basics playlist (PLk_D-eUr0YKgOHUltqw-qyx7_w0kAmus6) for many more like this one.

Hello, it is possible to weld the root pass downhill of vertical seams ?

Parabéns

What is the current strength used when welding?

Helal olsun hakini verdi

Super 👌

Luar biasa anda jago,,👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍

GMAW is Good👍

T'nkyou❤️❤️❤️

look neat

bagai mana kita mau bisa, sedangkan A sama V nya kita tidak diperlihatkan. klaw bikin tutor yg jelas bosku.

is this MIG or flux core? what are the settings ?

I've been told 16.5 and 170 for heat and speed.

Если бы еще указывали напряжение и подачу для корня и перекрытий, это самое главное ...

FCAW please

அருமை

Thats it MIG Mechine?

There is porosity in the cover pass

galing grave///

What settings did you have it on?

Everyone does stuff differently

Voltage, wire speed?

4:37 did you get porosity? or is that just spatter

Es fcaw o mig ?

Welding technologies

Everything was listed but the dimensions of the root opening and the root face (land). There is no way that was an 1/8 root opening and a knife edge.

Pakai kawat apa ini ?

what were the settings on the machine?

what's your settings?

As a Certified welder in the ASME , API, and AWS codes for over 40 years in the nuclear, refinery, aerospace and oilfields and also as an AWS-QC1-CWI ( certified welding inspector) I will state that after every pass as viewed in this presentation using the flux core process - the bottom "overlapping" weld ( known as cold lap) must be ground down to parent metal. Otherwise when x-rayed the weld will fail. The flux core process is a filler process and has virtually zero ability to burn out lack of fusion. The metal must be very clean; and every pass have the 6:00 position ground to eliminate slag lines. The overall appearance of the finished "cap" is not symmetrical throughout the weld from start to finish. Also, the "cap is to high which means to much metal which creates stress pull upon the weld zone - thus weakening the weld. The welding process was excellent but the end result was not. The weld width must be the same width throughout the weld zone.

👍

Weaving will get you fired every where I have worked it makes under cut in it traps slag

this guy like a robot.

👍👍👍👍

😮😮😮

A guante nene malo you tube

proceicing welding mig.

GMAW?

Pro

Weaving is not the right way to do this.... yea it may work but you'll get undercut everytime... you can see it in this video even for people who want good volts to wire speed using 1/16 flux or dual shield use a volts of 24.6 and wire speed of 315 to 335... tune to your speed

Up hill, downhill = poor pen

Won't help if we don't know the settings.

👏👌

👏👏👏👍

mai Ronamcㅡㅡ

❤❤❤❤❤🌷🌷🌷👍💪

....tal display.

Please tell me. Model of machine used? Voltage setting? Wire speed? How is his liquid metal not running, if I was moving at that speed I'd be making steel tits!

sorry 👎

👍
