Is O2 also added to shielding gas in tungsten arc welding process?

Yes, oxygen (O2) is sometimes added to the shielding gas used in tungsten arc welding process to improve arc stability and penetration. However, the addition of oxygen is typically kept at low levels to prevent oxidation of the weld pool and tungsten electrode.


What does the flow-meter do in gas metal arc welding?

The flow meter in gas metal arc welding measures and controls the flow rate of shielding gas that is directed to the welding arc. This helps to ensure a consistent and appropriate amount of shielding gas is provided to protect the weld from atmospheric contamination and achieve optimal weld quality.
