The History of Welding | MillerWelds
2020年4月21日 · This was the beginning of carbon arc welding. Benardos restricted his efforts to carbon arc welding, although he was able to weld iron as well as lead. Carbon arc welding became popular during the late 1890s and early 1900s. 1890. In 1890, C.L. Coffin of Detroit received the first U.S. patent for an arc welding process using a metal electrode.

2009年3月21日 · The rap on the carbon arc torch was that it might introduce unwanted carbon contamination to the weld. This was much more of a factor with single-carbon welding, a process that really is obsolete, and not much of a factor with twin-carbon welding as long as you weren't welding touchy, high-tech steels.

2005年12月30日 · Hi Protraxrptr17 I can’t answer you about running the two machines together, but the 250-amp should be enough to run 3/16 or maybe ¼-inch rod, just going by memory here. I don’t think I have any charts for carbon arc rod. You didn’t mention your air compressor. These puppies eat air like crazy.

2013年3月2日 · The single-carbon torch is used with the carbon DC negative. From Wiki: An AC supply is recommended for twin carbon arc welding. In case a DC supply is used, the positive electrode will disintegrate and consume at a much faster rate as compared to negative electrode, because two-thirds of the total heat is generated at the positive pole.
Plasma or Air Carbon Arc Gouging - Miller Welding Discussion …
2006年4月29日 · Another way is to get a carbon arc torch for use with my Miller Trailblazer 302g engine driven welder. The XL 100 can plasma gouge with 80 amps at 112 volts DC. The Trailblazer is rated to use only up to 3/16" carbon rods with a carbon arc torch and this size rod can only take up to 250 amps.

2006年1月1日 · Carbon arc gouging in CV mode will not hurt the Trailblazer 302. The reason for the better performance in CV mode is that very little stabilizer is used. This results in less inductive losses. CV mode may be slightly more sensative to arc outages. In CC mode, more of the stabilizer is used resulting in less output due to more inductive losses.

2009年9月13日 · At 200 amps your going to be limited to a 3/16 carbon arc-rod at 40-80 lbs of air pressure,but you can always use a bigger air carbon gouging torch.I have 3 1000 amps running 5/16 and 3/8 carbon arc rods at 425-450 amps.Look …
air carbon arc gouging? - Miller Welding Discussion Forums
2013年5月3日 · Still keep carbon arc for hard to get into areas but hardly ever use it anymore I use my plasma frequently for gouging as well. Problem is, the arc air set up costs 1/10th of what your plasma costs to buy.
