Argon + CO2 Mixture Gas
Argon and carbon dioxide (CO2) mixture gases, commonly referred to as Ar/CO2 or argon CO2 blends, are widely used in welding and metal fabrication processes. The combination of these two gases offers specific advantages for various welding applications. Here's an overview of the manufacturing and usage of argon CO2 mixture gases:
Manufacturing of Argon CO2 Mixture Gas:
The manufacturing of argon CO2 mixture gases involves blending argon and carbon dioxide gases to achieve specific ratios suitable for different welding processes. The gas suppliers and manufacturers typically have equipment and processes to control the blending and ensure consistent gas mixtures.
Usage of Argon CO2 Mixture Gas:
Argon CO2 mixture gases find extensive use in welding applications, primarily for shielding the weld area and controlling the characteristics of the welding arc. The specific blend ratios are chosen based on the type of metal being welded and the welding process being used. Here are some common applications and advantages of argon CO2 mixture gases:
- MIG Welding
- TIG welding
- Carbon Steel Welding
- Dual-Shield Welding
- Flux-Cored Arc Welding
- Stainless Steel Welding
