We do a lot of work for several Alirine support companies..... this job was the addition of a drawbar reciever monuted to the front of a Jet Blue tug. The company supplied the reciever and I burned a pices of 3/4" x 4" plate to mount the reciever on which in turn gets mounted to the tug.
Process used..... and parameters;
For the flat welding which is the the position I used to weld the reciver to the mount plate....
Process, MIG
Wire, Hobart Excel Arc 71 Dualshield, 1/16"
OVC (volts), 32
Feed, 250 IPM
Gas, 75/25 35@ CFH
For the vertical up, and overhead.... Same as above except for,
OVC, 27
Feed, 175 IPM
Removedthe paint from the front of the Tug and locate where the hitch will be mounted.
One pass, vertical up, no stop and restart.
One pass, vert up, 1 stop and start (I had to reposition)
Overhead,one pass. The weld closest to the bottom of the pic is the overhead
Mounted.... then painted....
Thanks for looking....
