Weld Quality
Excellent weld penetration characteristics, leading to flatter, smoother weld profiles and fewer rejects
The huge advantages of a robotic welding system are only as good as the shielding gas and using a gas developed for manual welding will seriously compromise the welding speed.
The ultimate question is why would manufacturers invest heavily in robotic welding systems and then not invest in the best, most suitable gas for their welding application?
Air Products offers the full range of gas supply options including single cylinders, some of the highest volume cylinder packs on the market and bulk liquefied gases to meet all sizes of welding operation.
Air Products offers other high performance gas mixtures designed for different material types such as stainless steel using Inomaxx® Plus and aluminium using Alumaxx® Plus. These gases see greater heat transfer which leads to a deeper, more rounded bead cross-section as well as a wider bead, with improved penetration plus:
