Aluminum arc welding

Are you interested in arc welding aluminum? The supplier Evek GmbH offers to buy welded aluminum at an affordable price in a wide range. We provide delivery of products anywhere in the continent. The price is optimal.

Arc Welding

Welding aluminum products using conventional methods is impossible due to the following technological features of this metal:

  • low melting temperature;
  • high chemical activity (formation of a surface oxide film);
  • a large coefficient of volume shrinkage of the metal.

Given these features, arc welding is most often performed under argon protection. This technology allows to protect the area of weld formation from the effects of active gases in the atmosphere (primarily oxygen).

filler wire

Arc welding is carried out with the use of filler wire. It performs the task of preventing internal stresses in the weld, as it compensates for undesirable volumetric shrinkage of the metal. Supplier Evek GmbH offers to buy aluminium of domestic and foreign production at affordable price in wide assortment. We provide delivery of products anywhere in the continent. The price is optimal.

The sequence of operations

Electric arc welding of aluminum products is made on a direct current, with reverse polarity process. Aluminum electrodes are used, or a filler wire that is coated with appropriate fluxes. The highest quality weld at permanent connection of aluminum parts gives the device for argon arc welding. Units operating on alternating current are used much less frequently for welding rolled aluminum.

Tungsten electrode

The electric arc is excited on a tungsten non-consumable electrode. The consumption of tungsten in arc welding is very low, which predetermines the efficiency of this method of aluminum welding. When the argon arc welding machine is turned on, an arc is ignited between the tungsten electrode and the workpiece to be welded. Then an aluminum filler wire is fed into the combustion zone of the arc (the so-called "short" arc with a length of no more than 3...4 mm is used). The high temperature that is created in the combustion zone provides an effective destruction of the surface film of aluminum dioxide, which is always present on the surfaces of the connected products.
