Why does TEC.LA Ergus WIG 160 DCi have air bubbles in the bead?
Air bubbles (porosity) in the weld bead of your TEC.LA Welding System can occur due to several reasons: * Wet electrodes: Ensure electrodes are dry before use. * Welding current too high: Reduce the welding current. * Greasy or painted surfaces: Thoroughly clean joints before welding.
What to do if TEC.LA Ergus WIG 160 DCi has portions of the welded piece not melted?
If portions of the welded piece are not melting with the sheet metal or joint when using your TEC.LA Welding System, consider the following: * Use electrodes with a larger diameter and pre-heat the piece if the current electrodes are too thin. * Increase the welding current if it is too low. * Correct the welding angle towards the base plate if the electrode is used with an incorrect slope. * Reduce the welding speed if it is too fast. * Clean the surface before welding to remove any slag or dirt.
Why does TEC.LA Ergus WIG 160 DCi have visible cracks in the bead?
Visible cracks in the bead immediately after solidification of your TEC.LA Welding System may be due to: * Joints being too rigid: Eliminate tension problems due to the shape of joints. * Welding throat being too thin: Reduce welding speed to allow for a thicker deposit. * Cooling too quick: Pre-heat the piece and cool it more slowly.
