Plasma welding is another name for arc welding. It is a process in which electricity super heats air to form a plasma arc. This arc transmits an electrical current to a metal surface and creates heat to melt the metal together thus creating a weld joint.

Plasma welding is an extension of?
Mig
Can plasma arc welding weld non magnetic materials?
Plasma arc welding can weld almost any commonly used metal. It is not limited to magnetic metals, they only need to conduct electricity.
What is MMA welding?
MMA stands for manual Metal Arc welding. In short "arc welding" and can be used in either AC or DC mode. Usually incorperated with Mig, Tig and plasma cutters for arc welding machines as an optional extra. submitted by Ken.Benson - Clarke. sales@edacomputers.co.uk from saffon walden, essex, uk.
What is the Difference between plasma welding and gas welding?
The difference between a gas and a plasma is the chemical properties. Plasmas collect electric currents and electric and magnetic fields affect plasmas
Your welding helmet is too dark to see the work when welding?
The helmet holds the lens. Lenses come in different shades (darkness). Use the correct shade. Most welding applications call for a shade #10. TIG weldors usually use a shade #9. Plasma applications can call for a shade #11.

What does a plasma cutter do?
A CNC plasma cutter is used for precise cuts into metal. Unlike welding torches, the CNC plasma cutter leave a smoother cut which looks nicer and allows for easier welding to another piece of metal.

Is welding a semi skilled job?
It can be. Basic welding techniques can get you started in the welding field. Stick welding in the flat position for example. The more experience you get usually translates to more money. Certain processes take more skill such as TIG or plasma welding as well as pipe welding and underwater welding. These are considered highly skilled.
What is the difference between Tig weld vs plasma weld?
When we are using the tig welder we getting welding defects on our blanks, but when using the plasma weld no defects are found
Where can one find plasma cutters for sale?
A variety of home improvement and welding supply shops carry plasma cutters. Welder Source, eBay, Sears, Sam's Club, and Torch Mate all carry plasma cutters.

When was welding founded?
Welding has been around since the Bronze Age when man needed to join two or more pieces of brass/bronze. Forge welding was probably used at this time also. Forge welding as we know it was used during the Iron Age when Cast Iron was developed. But the modern welding you see (Oxyfuel Torches, Plasma Cutters, Mig Guns Etc....) was founded or developed just in the last 110 years or so.
