When was pulse wave created for TIG (gtaw) welding?
Hello,
I have been shopping for a TIG and I have read and seen a bit about pulse welding. I am planning on welding aluminum and I feel it would be great to understand this idea as well as possible. I am curious about it's creation and initial use on the TIG market. Like, was it created 20 years ago and started being heavily used 15 years ago or something like that? How important or useful is it in welding aluminum? I have googled around for this information so maybe some folks here can give me some wisdom.
Thanks!
When you talk about pulse wave tig it is mostly DC welding. You use the pulse to help reduce the distortion. It is mostly used on all ferrous metals. You would need an AC or AC/DC machine for tig welding aluminum. They are some what costly. When tig welding you need to stay with the better name brand welders. Thermal arc, Hobart, Miller, and Lincoln are all good machines. To weld 1/4" aluminum you need approximately 200 or more amps. So this puts you into a machine that is in the $2000 range. Then you need a bottle of argon gas. If welding for any length of time at those amps you would need a water cooled torch. Not to mention the water cooler, foot pedal and all the other items needed. All these items are costly. I am not trying to discourage you but you need to know it is going to cost you some bucks to invest in all the equipment you will need. If you have no welding experience you will be discouraged real quick. It is difficult but not imposable. I would suggest going to a night welding vocational school first to see if you can or have the knack to do it. Good luck!
