ARC-WELDING:
It is a fusion welding processes which uses
an electric arc to produce the heat required
for melting the metal.

The welder creates an electric arc that melts

the base metals and filler metal
(consumable) together so that they all fuse
into one solid piece of metal
 The working principle of arc winding is, in a welding
WORKING process the heat can be generated with an electric arc
PRINCIPAL strike among the workpiece as well as an electrode. This is
glowing electrical discharge among two electrodes
throughout ionized gas.

The arc welding equipment mainly includes an AC machine

otherwise DC machine, Electrode, Holder for the electrode,
Cables, Connectors for cable, Earthing clamps, Chipping
hammer, Helmet, Wire brush, Hand gloves, Safety goggles,
sleeves, Aprons, etc.
