    Gas-tungsten arc welding (GTAW) is a process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode and an inert shielding gas to create an arc between the electrode and the base metals, melting and joining them. The shielding gas protects the weld pool from atmospheric contamination. Plasma arc welding (PAW) is similar but uses both a shielding gas and an orifice gas to constrict the arc. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) uses a continuously fed filler wire electrode and an inert shielding gas to create an arc and melt the metals, being able to deposit weld metal at a higher rate than GTAW.

    GAS–TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING

    • Gas–tungsten arc welding (GTAW) is a process that melts and


    joins metals by heating them with an arc established between
    a non consumable tungsten electrode and the metals
    • The torch holding the tungsten electrode is connected to
    a shielding gas cylinder as well as one terminal of the power
    source
    • The shielding gas goes through the torch body and is directed by
    a nozzle toward the weld pool to protect it from the air.
    • Protection from the air is much better in GTAW than in SMAW
    because an inert gas such as argon or helium is usually used as
    the shielding gas and because the shielding gas is directed toward
    the weld pool.
    GAS–TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING

    • Suitable for joining thin section because of its limited heat


    inputs
    • The feeding rate of the filler metal is somewhat independent
    of the welding current
    • The GTAW process is a very clean welding process, it can be
    used to weld reactive metals, such as titanium and zirconium,
    aluminum, and magnesium.
    • Excessive welding currents can cause melting of the tungsten
    electrode and results in brittle tungsten inclusions in the weld
    metal.
    PLASMA ARC WELDING
    • Plasma arc welding (PAW) is an arc welding process that melts
    and joins metals by heating them with a constricted arc
    established between a tungsten electrode and the metals
    • It is similar to GTAW, but an orifice gas as well as a shielding
    gas is used.

    Plasma non transfer
    PLASMA ARC WELDING
    • With a collimated arc, PAW is less sensitive to unintentional arc
    length variations during manual welding and thus requires less
    operator skill than GTAW.
    • The short arc length in GTAW can cause a welder to
    unintentionally touch the weld pool with the electrode tip and
    contaminate the weld metal with tungsten. However, PAW does
    not have this problem since the electrode is recessed in the
    nozzle.
    • The keyhole is a positive indication of full penetration, and it
    allows higher welding speeds to be used in PAW.
    • The PAW torch is more complicated.
    • The equipment for variable-polarity PAW is much more
    expensive than that for GTAW.
    GAS METAL ARC WELDING
    • Gas–metal arc welding (GMAW) is a process that melts and
    joins metals by heating them with an arc established between
    a continuously fed filler wire electrode and the metals.
    • Shielding of the arc and the molten weld pool is often
    obtained by using inert gases such as argon and helium, and
    this is why GMAW is also called the metal–inert gas (MIG)
    welding process.
    • This is the most widely used arc welding process for aluminum
    alloys.
    • Gas Inert : Argon, Helium, CO2
    Globular Transfer
    Globular Transfer
    • Globular transfer often is not smooth and produces spatter.
    • At relatively low welding current globular transfer occurs
    regardless of the type of the shielding gas.
    Spray Transfer
    Spray Transfer
    • Above a critical current level, small discrete metal drops travel
    across the arc gap under the influence of the electromagnetic
    force at much higher frequency and speed than in the
    globular mode.
    • Metal transfer is much more stable and spatter free.
    Short Circuit Transfer

    • The molten metal at the electrode tip is transferred from the


    electrode to the weld pool when it touches the pool surface,
    that is, when short circuiting occurs.
    • It produces a small and fast-freezing weld pool that is
    desirable for welding thin sections, out-of position welding
    (such as overhead-position welding), and bridging large root
    openings.
    Short Circuit Transfer
    GAS METAL ARC WELDING
    • Like GTAW,GMAW can be very clean when using an inert
    shielding gas.
    • The main advantage of GMAW over GTAW is the much higher
    deposition rate, which allows thicker workpieces to be welded
    at higher welding speeds.
    • GMAW guns can be bulky and difficult-to-reach small areas or
    corners.
