Wire feed welding is similar to MIG welding. Welders use different types of welding process to carry out different welding tasks. Every welder has a preferred method of welding and the skill one has also plays a great role.
In wire feed welding, metals are joined together by heating the metal and electrode using an electric arc. In this process, a shielding gas is used to protect the welded metal from contamination. Wire feeding machines are mostly used to join non-ferrous metals. This machine is good for the use of mild welding tasks. The wire feed welder uses a consumable electrode for welding.
Wire feed welding is highly recommended to beginners because it is an easy skill to learn and use. However, basic welding skills are very important for you to be able to produce good quality welds. There are several types of welding used in the whole world but in this article we will look at two welding methods:
- The wire feed welding
- The stick welding
