Argon arc tester
Argon arc tester is a device used to test the weldability of materials. It applies an arc to the material to be tested and observes the melting of the material to determine the welding performance of the material. This testing method can help material engineers and manufacturers understand the welding performance of the material so as to optimize and improve it.
The argon arc tester is mainly composed of the following parts:
1. Power supply: Provides the power required for testing.
2. Tungsten needle and workpiece electrode: An arc is generated between the tungsten needle and the workpiece electrode to form a molten pool.
3. Observation system: used to observe the melting condition of materials.
4. Gas supply system: Provides argon gas to the arc to prevent oxygen in the air from entering the arc area, thereby protecting the material from oxidation.
5. Control panel: used to set test parameters and read test results.
During the test, the power supply supplies current to the tungsten needle, creating an arc. The argon supply system provides argon gas to the arc to protect materials within the arc area from oxidation. The observation system is used to observe the melting of materials, and the control panel is used to set test parameters and read test results.
The argon arc tester can quickly and accurately detect the welding performance of materials, thereby helping engineers and manufacturers better understand the characteristics of materials and optimize and improve product design and manufacturing processes.
