Spray Welding

[RANGER2BOB]

Hi All, I Been Welding For Some Time But I've Been Asked To Pass A Vertical 3/8" Plate W/beveled Butt Joint Weld For Certification, Using The Spray arc Method. I'm Using A Miller 354 Inversion Welder With 95/ 5 Argon /02 Gas. Any Help With Techniques And Machine Settings Would Be Extremely Helpful Also Any Good Internet Sites Would Be Welcomed Also.

There are some pros on here but they give advice to us amateurs more than anything. I think you may need a kind of Pro user site of which there are some. I certainly can`t divulge the things I get up to with my Sip 130........They are secrets........Took me years of learning with it! I`ve got that machine all specially tweaked with Titanium rollers , hard wiring to improve the sound of it and a huge drum fan to increase the duty cycle.....Ive given enough away already!!!!! Miller?! Is that them that make the beer?

I Had A Feeling There Was No Real Welders On This Site!!!!!!!!! Just Some Junk Welders Playing With Their Little Tiny 130 Amp Backyard Toy Welders. "tweaked Up Sip 130" Please Buy A Real Machine And You Wouldn't Need To Worry About A Duty Cycle (miller A World Leader In Welding Machines Have A One Hundred Percent Duty Cycle) And Who Could Care Less About The Sound???? I've Forgotten More About Welding Than You'll Ever Learn--you Sound Pretty Insecure To Want To Keep You Little Secrets To Your Self. Like You Said, "there No Real Pros On This Site" Just Some Wanna Be's.

I cant advise on any settings for your particular machine.
Is it to be a single pass, or root and cap?

Thinking on, it will be difficult to do a positional weld with spray transfer.

Oh Yeah Its Difficult But It Can Be Done-----it Will Take Several Passes, A Good Root Pass With Penertration Into The Backing Plate, A Couple More Single Verticals And Finished With A Good Looking Weave Pass--

Bloody hell mate. I wish Salmon fishing was as easy. Hold still now while I reel in. The moment is lost when you gotta explain a joke!
