Kempii MinarcMig Adaptive 150. Settings: 3mm plate thickness and 6 arc trim.
Welding up a sheet bender made of 6mm angle so I've bevelled the edges for penetration and it was welding OK yesterday getting some nice runs - well for me anyway. Left the top rails and resumed today. Did a test piece on 3mm sheet just to get the welder warmed up and this kept happening - lot of spluttering and then unwelded wire pushes the nozzle away from the piece. Thought it might be a dodgy bit of metal so tried a tack weld on the top rail - same thing. Bit mystified.
