A US manufacturer of truck-mounted boom cranes and lifts recently trialed PowerBall® Replacement Welding Consumables on their existing MIG guns that often experienced a short contact tip life. Welders in the facility were increasingly frustrated by the excess downtime due to frequent consumable change-outs. After converting the diffusers and contact tips to the PowerBall® design, consumable life was double that of the OEM consumables on their existing MIG guns.

After a successful trial of the replacement consumables, they are now in the process of converting to PowerBall® MIG Welding Guns due to the increased consumable life, welding performance, durability and operator comfort.

Want to speed up cleaning of your dirty welding fixtures or automation equipment? Quickly blast away grease, slag and other contaminants with a dry ice blaster. Dry ice blasting is an environmentally friendly cleaning process that has a number of advantages over traditional industrial cleaning methods. Here are just a few:

Reduced Downtime for Maintenance
Dry ice blasting is a fast cleaning method that significantly reduces equipment downtime. Dry ice blasting can be performed in place, without the need for equipment disassembly, allowing for quick and efficient cleaning.

Non-abrasive Cleaning for Sensitive Components
Utilizing dry ice pellets, which are non-abrasive (when used with a fragmenter) and non-conductive, dry ice blasting is ideal for cleaning automation equipment. Check out this video of a circuit board cleaned using dry ice blasting.
Non-toxic and Eco-friendly
Dry ice is made of solid CO2 and leaves no chemical residues behind. It is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, eliminating the need for hazardous chemicals or solvents, reducing waste and minimizing the risk of contamination.
Improved Quality and Productivity
Dry ice blasting helps maintain optimal performance and efficiency by keeping weld cells clean. Clean equipment leads to better welding consistency, reduced downtime and more reliable operation of robotic equipment.
The Nu-Ice line of COMMANDO® Dry Ice Blasting Machines is available from Wire Wizard Welding Products. Contact your Wire Wizard® Technical Sales Expert or customer support for details and pricing information.

Word from the Wizard - April

A manufacturer of attachments for heavy construction equipment was not happy with the performance and durability of their current MIG welding guns. Their heavy duty application required a heavy duty MIG gun that could withstand high heat and high duty cycle welds with large diameter cored wire. The poor cooling of their current MIG guns caused them to be too hot for the operator to handle and also resulted in premature failure of welding consumables. Frustrated with the ongoing performance issues, they decided to trial PowerBall® 500 Amp MIG guns that feature patented technology with superior conductivity and cooling. Welders quickly noticed less heat build-up in the handle , improved welding quality and a significant increase in consumable life . After a successful trial, they are now in the process of...

📚 Mastery Mondays: Sputtering, popping and backpressure – oh my!

manoj, take your welding skills to a higher level with information and education from ESAB's experts. How to Select the Correct Tip for Oxyfuel Cutting    Most manufacturers will provide you with a tip chart to help you to determine proper flow setting. This is critical since too much pressure inside the tip can cause the whole system to back-pressure and reverse flow. Too little pressure, on the other hand, can cause the tip to sputter and pop, leading to flashback or backfire.    To help ensure you avoid this and stay safe on the job, here are some tips to keep in mind.   Use plate thickness as your guide. The thickness of your plate determines what tip to use. The tip you use will determine what...
