TORCHES EQUIPMENT
The torch must be fitted with the appropriate consumables, selected based on the application and selected current.
Using the wrong consumables will result in poor cutting, excessive use of consumables and possibly prevent the machine from working.
Welding Spatter :
- When welding, the spatter can easily damage the torch and welding equipment. To avoid constraints on the wire feeder, decrease arc stability or
reduce the gas isolation effect, spatter and other depots build-up in the nozzles must be cleaned as soon as necessary.
- Accumulated spatter in the nozzle will cause a short-circuit which could damage the torch over time if not cleaned in due course.
- The use of anti-splatter spray or paste is recommended. In order to avoid to damage to the torch, do not use a cutting tool to clean it.
Consumables :
Regularly check the wear condition of the contact tube 3 and the nozzle 4 .
