HOW CAN YOU IDENTIFY WELD DEFECTS?

Who among you here likes to cook?

What is your menu?
When you cook, what do you use?
What else?
What do you call the things that you need for
your cooking?
These are some of the things you need in cooking.

Good utensils and tools

make the process of cooking
better and less stressful.
Just like cooking, in welding we also use tools,
equipment and accessories.
That would be our lesson for today.
We will discuss welding tools, equipment and
accessories and their uses.
 ACTIVITY PROPER
1. Grouping of students.
2. Giving of instructions.
3. Perform activity in the activity sheet.
4. Reporting by group.
WELDING TOOLS, EQUIPMENT
AND ACCESSORIES AND THEIR
USES
Angle grinder – is a versatile tool that can grind, cut
and brush metal without using water.
Electrode oven- is an equipment used to store all types
of welding electrodes particularly the low hydrogen.
Electrode which requires in some critical welding joints
to be fabricated. The temperature requirements varies
based the needed specific job.
Welding head shield - is used to
protect our face and eyes from the
arc rays, heat and spatter from the
molten metals. The arc is viewed
through a filter which reduces the
intensity of radiation but allows a safe
amount of light to pass for viewing the
weld pool and end of electrodes.
Hand held shielded helmet-
allows only one hand free
to work.
Locking pliers, mole grips (mole wrench) or vise-grips
are pliers that can be locked into position, using an
over-center action.
Welding machine- is a device that provides an electric
current to join materials, usually metals by melting small
parts of them.
Oxygen-acetylene – is an oxy fuel gas
cutting process used to cut and bevel
metals by means of the chemical
reaction of oxygen with the base metal
at elevated temperature. The
necessary temperature is maintained
by gas flames resulting from the
combustion of acetylene with oxygen.
MAJOR ACCESSORIES OF OXY-
ACETYLENE CUTTING EQUIPMENT
Cylinder - a portable round
container where compressed
gas stored.
Regulator - a welding tool
used to control the gas
delivery,producing constant
pressure regardless of
higher pressure variation of
the gas source.
Twin hose - are used to carry the gas to the welders
work. Red hose connect to the acetylene while green
hose is for the oxygen.
Spark lighter/ igniter-
used to ignite the
implement.
Cutting torch- is used to cut metal.
