Welding positions
Top Tip
When welding, it is ideal to orientate
your work in positions where gravity
helps to control the weld pool. These are
positions PA and PB (see diagram) - in
these positions, the most productive
transfer mode - ‘spray arc’ - can be
used. In all other positions, ‘short-arc’ or
‘pulse’ transfer are typically used when
welding with a solid wire. Alternatively,
a range of flux cored wires are available
to assist when positional welding.
Faster travel speeds with Ferromaxx®,
Inomaxx® and Alumaxx® welding
gases mean reduced welding costs.
