Correct adjustment of MAG welding machines - tutorial

How to do a correct adjustment of MAG welding machines and how to set up a MAG welding machine properly. In this tutorial from Linde Group, we'll be welding 10-mm or 0.4-inch mild steel with a blasted surface using CORGON® 18, a gas mixture comprising 82 percent argon and 18 percent CO2. The Linde MAG welding tutorial uses mild steel as the parent material and recommends using low-alloy silicon-doped wire as the consumable.
The tutorial also shows how to set up the gas flow meter, how to adjust the MAG welding machine and how to check the speed at which we want the wire to come out of the gas nozzle - our MAG welding tutorial gives also valuable information about how to set the gas pre-flow time and the gas post-flow time to achieve a perfect welding result. Once all the settings shown in this Linde MAG welding tutorial have been made, the device is ready for metal active gas welding. Before you start, however, make sure you are wearing the right personal protective equipment and have attached the ground cable to the work piece.
