UNDERSTAND
Arc welding is the process of joining two metal workpieces together using a flux covered
electrode which is melted in an electric arc and becomes a fused part of the pieces being welded. Arc
welding requires time, effort and patience to master as the weld rod position is very delicate to the
position of the workpiece. The following picture below shows the different techniques in welding.

PROGRESSION (vertical)
• Up -deeper penetration -Higher
deposit rate (Ib/hr)- Use near 90
degree travel angle or sligthtly up
• Down -faster (point to point)- less
penetration for thin metal- less
grag angle.

Horizontal Fillet/Groove- stringer (small weave may be used in tight place) Bead Placement-botton to top
Vertical Fillet/Groove-weave (or whip but not straight stringer) Root pass 6010 whip, Root pass 7018 straight or
weave (open closed)

needed 1/8 per pass flat overload 3/16 vertical, Cover-
flush 1/16 past edge.

Open Root Technique

• Use root opening to allow increase in amperage for smoother welding.
• Whip backwards for penetration.
• Whip forwards to reduce penetration.
• Do not Weave a root pass.
• Maintain a short arc gap. Stay slightly in front of the puddle at all times. Use the keyhol ing
technique.
Butt Joint Preperation (With Backing) Roots faces -0 45deg. Included angle.
• Remove all mill scales and rust, Tacking-not in groove Tack away from coupon area.
• Flush on backing.
Welding groove with Backing
• kee the root opening wide, Make the root pass in one bead,
• Avoid tight areas at the weld toes.
Restarts
• Stagger all starts and stops or use run -on,run-off tabs.
• Feather all restart and start on top, or start in front and remelt.
• Don’t restart in a coupon area. Also stagger all beads on a single pass.
• Use a longer arc length when starting a weld. Compare interpass grinding Technique vs.
techniques for no interpass grinding.

• Fill crater by reversing direction at the weld end. plate.Electorde Travel Angle Drag angle increases
• Use a short arc length to control heat. Penetration Increases crown height. Push angle give
shallo penetration, and f lattens the weld surf ace.
Electrode (Arc) Placement Current take the path of
least resistance. Theref ore, the arc, and the resulting
weld, will go where the electrode end is closest to,
NOT NECESSARILY IN THE DIRECTION THE
ELECTRODE IS POINTING. Arc Length Longer arc
length-= increased puddle heat, f latter welds, deeper
penetration. Shorter arc length =less puddle heat,
f latter welds, less penetration. Use arc length to
control puddle size, penetration, and burn through.
Normal arc length is 1/6’’ -1/8”.. Use a slightly longer
during a start or restart.

Helpful Tips . Clean your welding Hood lens. Drape the cable over your shoulder or knee. Get comfortable.
Watch the puddle, not the arc. Concentrate on steady travel speed and arc length.

Directions: Answer the following question below. Write your answer on the answer sheet provided.

1. How can you improve your welding skills?

REMEMBER
Key Points

❖ Welding techniques involves both self-develop and acquired skills through constant practice.
❖ Welding techniques is practice and develop through applications and processes.
❖ There is no such definite welding techniques for an effective welder.

Assessment 1

Directions: Read each statement below carefully. Write capital letter “T” if you think the statement is
“TRUE” and capital letter “F” if you think the statement is “FALSE”. Write your answer on the answer
sheet provided.
__1. Arc Length Longer arc length-= increased puddle heat, flatter welds, deeper penetration.
__2. Electorde Travel Angle Drag angle increases Penetration Increases crown height. Push
angle give shallo penetration , and flattens the weld surface.
__3. Welding groove with Backing-kee the root opening wide, Make the root pass in one bead,
Avoid tight areas at the weld toes.
__4. Electrode (Arc) Placement Current take the path of least resistance. Therefore, the arc,
and the resulting weld, will go where the electrode end is closest to.
__5. Use arc length to control puddle size, penetration, and burn through.

Assessment 2

Directions: Answer/give what is/are being asked. Write your answer on the answer sheet provided.
1. What welding technique is considered as common?
2. Why do you think welding is considered as “difficult skill” to learn?
3. Identify and describe at least one (1) welding technique

Question #1 Answer: Stick/shielded Metal arc welding (SMAW)-Stick for many years has been the
most popular method for most home-shop welding. This process uses an electric current flowing
from a gap between the metal and the arc-welding electrode.

Question #2 Answer: Moderately to very hard, depending upon the person. You can’t learn it f rom
the books or video’s: its definite a “hands-on” skill, not only from a skill standpoint, but welding
takes it toll on the human body. It will damage your eyesight; it can damage your skin.

Question #3 Answer:
Open Root Technique
• Use root opening to allow increase in amperage for smoother welding.
• Whip backwards for penetration.
• Whip forwards to reduce penetration.
• Do not Weave a root pass.
• Maintain a short arc gap. Stay slightly in front of the puddle at all times. Use the keyhol ing
