Welding Electrode Making Machine

Welding electrodes are used in welding various metals in the fabrication of
equipment for chemical & Allied industries, construction of steel structures such as
bridges, factory sheds, in the manufacture of ships, Vehicles and engineering
equipment. Mild steel is welded by electrodes to a maximum among all the metals &
Alloys. Therefore M.S. Welding Electrode is the most widely used core wire. Besides
this, special grade electrodes are being developed for specific applications. Welding electrodes comprise basically of steel core wire and coating ingredients
or flux mild steel core wires are used in majority of unalloyed steel electrodes. Besides
mild steel, nickel, Nickel-copper, Nickel irons are also used in MIG & TIG welding.
Stainless steel wires are also used for welding in fertilizer, chemical & surgical
instrument making industry. Coating ingredients are basically rutile, potassium silicate, sodium silicate and minerals like quartz, calcite and mica. Ferro-alloys are also used in the formulations of fluxes.
