Abstract
Summary form only given. Metal-inert-gas (MIG) welding is the most-widely used form of arc welding in manufacturing. An arc is struck, usually in argon, between a metal wire electrode and the workpiece. The wire electrode melts, forming droplets that pass through the arc into the weld pool (the molten region of the workpiece).
