I know that there is probably every bit of information that I am
looking for somewhere within all the posts but I am trying to get an
initial setup that is tried and true with the Thermal Arc 185TSW
machine on aluminum!
I have not ever TIG welded before! So I have no idea where to set all
the settings for 1/8" aluminum flat stock. I just want to practice
running some beads on a complete proven setup for the TA 185TSW.
Pulse (Yes or No)
AC - I am sure this is Yes
Pre Flow =
Hot Start=
Initial Current=
Up Slope=
Peak Current=
Base=
Pulse Width=
Pulse Freq.=
Crater Current=
AC Freq=
Wave Balance=
Stick, HF, Lift= Probably HF
Std, Slope, Repeat, Spot=
Spot Time=
Tungston Type=
Filler Type=
Filler Size=
Argon Flow (CFH)=
Anything else that might make my day easier=
To any that respond, yes I have talked to Ernie and he has given me
great advise, I just want someone that has a complete setup for this
situation with this specific machine. So thank you all and whoever
responds...thank you in advance.
