THE SUBMERGED ARC WELDING PROCESSELECTRICAL STICK OUTElectrical Stick Out setting:The electrical stick out or CTWD (contact tip to work distance) is the distance set between thecontact tip end and the work piece. The stick out needs to be kept constant along the weld ifconsistent results are expected for the welding behavior and penetration.The Long Stick Out variant:Taking benefit of the Power Wave technology, the long stick out variant is now a reliable optionfor a number of applications.Unmatched ProductivityIncreaseCompleteControlEnabled by State-of-the-ArtEquipment Increase deposition rate Power Wave technology Power Wave AC/DC 1000 SDwithout changing the process Significant reduction of heatinput possibleeliminates arc strikingissues by allowing completetailoring of the arc startcharacteristics MAXsa 10 Controller MAXsa 22 Automatic Feeder Precise control over the inputWATCH VIDEOof energy into the weldHEAT INPUTHI A V v Heat Input [kJ/cm]Current [A]Voltage [V]Travel Speed [cm/min]HI 0.06 x A vx VThe heat input will affect the mechanical properties of the deposited metal as well as the basematerial in the heat affected zone. It is also a key parameter for the distortion of the weld assembly.As an example, a target at 20 kJ/cm for single arc procedure on non and low alloy grade is a good start.With the Power Wave AC/DC 1000 SD, the heat input can be optimized and tailored as needed.10SUBMERGED ARC WELDINGwww.lincolnelectric.eu
