| Gas metal arc cutting
|
|
Use of an external shielding gas, which produces an electric arc used to melt metal. The arc is produced between the consumable electrode and the metal that is to be cut. Electric current is supplied by a variable transformer, through heavy electrical leads. One lead is connected to the electrode and the other is connected to the metal being cut. The electrode is then held close to the metal so that an electric arc can move from the electrode to the metal, completing the circuit. |
