Techniques Welding In the grooves and bevels

Welding technique used is the form of a cup run. I call it the sliding cup because I've heard others describe it except the term sliding cups. Sliding cups made ​​by placing a TIG torch cups in the groove and then literally slide the cup from side to side and forward!

How to choose a cup size of TIG is to find a cup that will allow proper tungsten stick out without touching the metal tungsten. When using this technique you will most likely use more than one cup size to a single joint. Only need to switch out the cup size while increasing the length of the tungsten rod.

Before actually welding there are a few tips that will make welds more easily! The first is the bevel sand with sanding disk to remove the sign or outline the rough from the cutting slope. This is a great trick to get the cup to slide smoothly. Another common technique used is the square edge of the milling cup so that when sitting on the clumps have a bevel or a flat profile at the contact point. The main thing to remember when sliding the cup is that the cup was always sliding in the groove and should have a smooth surface. If the surface is not smooth you'll find yourself stuck in your movement and the struggle to weld!

Once you start practicing shifting the cup you will find the weld you get better real quick. I still remember when I learned how to slide the cup and began to be so perfect welds. The only thing you can say "I really do". This is one of the welding technique that in just a short amount of practice you will amaze yourself at how well you can weld!
