Is there a chart somewhere that shows approximate voltages,
inches-per-minute wire speeds and gas flow rates for different
thicknesses of steel? I guess such a chart would be pretty complex
and would more likely be a whole group or book of charts showing
different wire types, joint types and so on....
I'm constantly amazed by people who can throw out comments like
'oh, you'll want 22.5 volts with 175 inches per minute, and 14lpm on
your gas for a fillet joint with that wire on 8mm steel'.
Surely there's a chart out there *somewhere* with all this info on it?
Thanks
