Activating flux - increasing the performance and productivity of the tig and plasma processes

Abstract: This paper presents details of the A-TIG process and its operating characteristics. A mechanism is proposed by which the unique depth of weld pool penetration is achieved. Whilst there are undoubted significant productivity benefits to be gained, its performance in comparison to the conventional TIG plasma processes is highlighted and the potential areas of application are identified.
