Advantages and disadvantages of A.C arc welding:
A.C arc welding is a joining process used for metals and alloy metals. A.C arc welding generates Coalescence by heating using an electric arc.
Advantages of A.C arc welding:
- A.C arc welding is a high-quality welding process.
- A.c arc welding can obtain high electrical efficiency.
- A.c arc welding operation is a simple process and easy to operate.
- It required less maintenance.
- Overall process cost is comparatively less.
- It does not require highly skilled persons.
Disadvantages of A.C arc welding:
- When the metal is operated under A.C arc welding proper cleaning should be required.
- The metal should be free from wet.
- In this type of welding, the arc developed is not high intensity.
- It is not highly efficient and clean than D.C arc welding.
- considerable heat cannot be changed.
- It is not easy to operate at starting due to improper current flow.
