Electric Welding Electrode Holder: Usages & Applicability
Arc Electrode welding holders act as heat sources in the manual welding process. Highlighting back to applications, when an arc strikes the surface of the coated electrode utilizing an electrode holder clamp generates heat that allows quick melting of both the base materials to be welded.
Getting to Know Welding Circuit Much Better way:
● Power Source
This primarily acts as a medium to feed electric arcs. To supply sufficient current, we as a pioneer Electric Welding Electrode Holder Manufacturers ensure uninterrupted supply over the base material and electrode holder. The overall procedure is based on an uninterrupted/ constant current principle where the current delivered from various power sources doesn’t vary at the time of movement of the electrode.
During this process,s the polarity of the power sourcing output current is distinguished into two further categories:
(A) Alternating Current (AC) Power Sources -
The power source output gathers current from AC sources that change their polarity at regular intervals enduring an optimal frequency of 50 or 60 cycles/second (Hertz). This is obtained via a common transformer that converts mains current into a suitable power level for welding procedures.
(B) Direct current (DC) Power Sources -
The power source output current has a continuous flow, which is gathered from a device named a rectifier. This device is situated at the base of the transformer that converts alternating current into direct current.
● Electrode Holder Clamp -
The primary function of Welding the electrode holder clamp is to provide support for the electrodes. From a market leader in Arc Welding, Electrode holders’ manufacturers guarantee good electrical contact for fair passage of current. This also ensures sufficient electrical insulation for the welding operator.
● Coated Electrode
This coated electrode comprises a core coating to perform various complementary functions. This coated core primarily acts as a conductive means for supply in materials filling joints. Over the counter, the main function of Coated Electrode is to protect the weld pool for Stabilizing the arc.
● Earth Clamp & Cables
Earth Clamp is a tool that ensures the closure of the electrical circuit between the welding power source and the area to be welded. Here clamp and earth cables are connected to the electrode holder clamp and earth clamp to permit an uninterrupted electrical connection between the power source and the base material.
Material Welding by Arc Welding Electrode Holder’s Manufacturers -
Considering practical aspects, welding medium of highly carbonated steel i.e.(>0.25%) can cause structural defects in formation. The application of Arc Welding Electrode Holder thick joints the basic electrodes to obtain a better breakage resistance welding medium.
