Title :
AC versus DC fusing
Abstract :
Selecting the proper fusing technology and feedback mode are critical aspects in achieving an optimum fusing process. This paper focuses on the benefits of DC fusing utilizing DC inverter welding controls where speed, efficiency, consistency and electrode life are concerned. Also highlighted are various ways the fusing energy can be controlled and some pros and cons of each
