Arc welding with coated electrode

The objectives will be specified according to your production requirements:

• Implement the welding process.
• Perform sheet metal and tube welding in all positions.
• Prepare for a welder's qualification.
• Perform work on different grades of materials.

Based on the participants' prior knowledge and the training objectives, each person will progress at his or her own pace in the following pedagogical progression:

TECHNOLOGICAL TRAINING: History, principle and application of the process; Type of generators; Equipment used: Wire feeders, contact tube torches, sheaths, rollers, control boxes; Electric arc in MIG MAG welding: Different transfer modes, influence of welding parameters; Gases and gas mixtures used

How to determine for a welded assembly: Wire diameter, transfer mode, current, voltage, wire speed, choke, gas, edge preparation; Weld defects and means of control

Health and safety.

PRATICAL TRAINING: Welding on joint types: Inside corner, outside corner, overlap, butt.

Welding positions: Flat, gutter, downhill, uphill, ceiling and cornice;

Material and thicknesses: Exercises will be carried out on a range of thicknesses from 2 to 10 mm for steels.

Ongoing assessment by the trainer of the practical exercises carried out by the participant: analysis of the quality of the assemblies (visual inspection of welds, macroscopies, bending) and corrective actions.

Personalised and individualised training; Commented practical demonstrations; Technological presentations illustrated by audiovisual means.
