4.2 Welding current adjustment
Welding current range is 10~160/200A.
The DIGI-ARC 160PFC MV has a welding current pre-setting function that displays the
the amperage and allows for accurate parameters and adjustment.
4.3 Welding operation
4.3.1 Striking arc
Knocking arc: Hold the electrode upright to contact with the workpiece. After
forming a short circuit, quickly lift up about 2~4 mm, and arc will be ignited.
This method is ideal for welding brittle or hard steel.
The lift arc process is used by gently scraping the tungsten electrode onto the
work piece then lifting off once the arc is struck. Care should be taken not to put
too much pressure on the tungsten when operating in this process.
4.3.2 Manipulation of electrode
With MMA welding there are three operations:
1 The electrode moves to the molten pool
along axes
2 The electrode swings right and left
3 The electrode moves along welding way
The operator can select the appropriate
operation based on welding joint shape,
welding position, electrode spec welding
current and operational skills etc.
4.4 Welding parameters
4.4.1 Joint form in MMA
The common basic joint forms are: butt joint, lap joint, corner joint and T-joint.

ARC series welder has the function of welding current pre-setting. Before
welding, adjusting welding current, the welding current display will show the ampere.
It is convenient to set parameters and adjust accurately.

l
Knocking arc: take the electrode upright to touch the workpiece, after forming
short circuit, quickly lift up about 2~4 mm, and arc will be ignited. This method
is difficult to master. But in the welding for the brittle or hard steel, it is better to
use knocking way.

§4.3.2 Manipulation of electrode
In MMA welding, there are three motions
to being matched in the end of electrode: the
electrode moving to the molten pool along
axes; the electrode swing right and left; the
electrode moving along welding way.

l
Electrode should be drying according to user manual before using. For reducing
the hydrogen of the molten pool and welding seam, and avoiding the blowhole
and cold crack.
l
In the welding process, the arc must not be too long; otherwise, it will cause
unstable arc burning, large spatter, light penetration, undercut, blowhole, etc. If
the arc is too short, it will cause electrode stick.
l
In MMA welding the arc length is usually equal to 0.5~1.0 time of the electrode
