Marking, tracing and tacking
A Powder marking
Deposits grey zinc powder
using an oxy/gas flame
(for use only with the gas
control panel)
B HF marker pen
This pneumatic vibrator
engraves sheet metal by
slightly scoring the surface
finish. Recommended for
use on thin plates.
C Felt-tip marking
Gravity-operated felt tip for
marking stainless steels
and light alloys.
It operates by gravity and
does not alter the surface
finish of the material.
D Pneumatic marking
For punching or engraving
plates.
The depth of marking is
controlled by varying the
compressed air pressure
and the speed.
Recommended for use on
plates thicker than 5 mm.
E Plasma arc marking
Low-power plasma arc for
engraving or tracing on all
materials. The depth of
marking is controlled by
the plasma arc power.
The height is
servo-controlled
by the arc voltage.

identical parts or one-off
parts without the need for
operator intervention. This
option also allows entirely
automatic use of a
machine equipped with 2
identical or 2 different
accessories.

Cutting stainless steels
With the NERTAJET HP DUALGAZ plasma process, Air Liquide Welding brings you a high quality solution for
cutting mild steel and stainless steels in thicknesses from 0.8 to 50* mm. DUALGAZ is a new technology
successfully developed by Air Liquide Welding engineers, bringing to bear their profound knowledge of every
aspect (the electronics, mechanics, gaseous physics and chemistry, metallurgy, etc.) of the plasma procedure.
This innovation combines the characteristics of arc control provided by NERTAJET HP technology with the
advantages offered by special gas mixtures. By introducing special constituents into the gas mixtures, it is possible
to act upon the physical and chemical aspects of the procedure. As a function of the grade and thickness of the
stainless steel to be cut, the type and proportion of the different constituents is adjusted in order to attain the highest
possible quality of cut. In this way, every individual case is defined to furnish a personalized solution for the work of each customer.
GAZ
DUALcess
pro
Advantages to customers
• Flexibility: DUALGAZ is suitable for all grades of stainless steel, including titanium
stabilized grades.
• Quality: no flashes, even in zones where the machine slows down (angles, etc.)
Cut parts can be used directly without any retouching.
• Quality: low surface roughness (less than that obtained by Laser cutting).
• Quality: light colour of cut surfaces.
• Quality: very good control of relief.
• Reproducibility: excellent consistency of cut throughout the life of wearing
components (nozzles and electrodes).
• Ease of use: can be employed on all common digitally controlled gantry machines.
Its use on high precision equipment such as ALPHATOME, displays the potential
of the procedure to the full (high quality geometry of parts).

Oxygen gives good quality cuts with excellent weldability of cut edges.
The air must be dry and oil-free.
Argon/hydrogen mixtures give cuts of good bright appearance, especially in stainless steel.
Nitrogen is mainly used for small thicknesses and stainless steels.
The use of a water vortex enables cutting under water which strongly attenuates noise,
radiation and fumes.
The use of an annular gas (nitrogen) enables quality improvement of stainless steel plates cutting.

The function of the laser spot guiding system is to mark out the
location of the wire point of impact in relation to the joint to be
welded, as the joint is hidden by the flux during submerged arc
welding. The spot projects an illuminated point in front of the
electrode wire for guiding.
The support is designed to be fitted on the wire feeds of the
automatic welding heads. The spot is fixed on a ball that makes
it possible to direct the assembly quickly and easily.
The combination of two spots and the use of the supplied
fasteners also make it possible to monitor the distance between
the nozzle and the workpiece. Constant height can be
maintained by adding an electrical slide fitted on the welding
head.

DIGI@WAVE and DIGI@PULS solut
Provided with the latest digital technology, the DIGI@WAVE and DIGI@PULS power
sources offer new welding methods that respond perfectly to the technical
developments taking place in industry. These innovative processes guarantee the
quality and productivity levels demanded by modern welding applications.
Short Arc
The Short Arc has a low spatter rate with good wetting and is suited to welding thin steel plate, working in
position and penetration passes This regime is characterized by alternating short circuits and light arc.
Speed Short Arc™ (SSA™)
The Speed Short Arc allows a high travel
speed due to a rigid arc and
a cold regime. It is very effective for
welding thin steel plates, working in position and
in closed angle and filling bevels. The SSA™
is used for short circuit
welding though the normal globular
regime travel speed domain.
NEW
Main applications of SSA™:
Earth Moving Plant
Infrastructure
Agricultural machines, Trailers
SSA™ advantages
•
•
•
•
Increase in travel speed
Reduced distortion (thin steel sheets)
Suited to welding in position
Tolerance and usability
Pulsed
The pulsed system is recommended for welding stainless steel and aluminium. It guarantees the mechanical
characteristics of the joint and limits spatter. The pulsed regime is a waveform which forces the drops of metal
to become detached, the hot period projects the drop and the cold period allows the weld pool to cool.
Soft Silence Pulse™ (SSP™)*
The Soft Silence Pulse is a quieter pulsed mode
mainly intended for stainless steel welding
applications. The SSP™ produces a softer but very
stable arc with good wetting of the weld bead.
This waveform significantly reduces spatter
and gives a very fine appearance to the weld bead.
NEW
SSP™ advantages

Soft Silence Pulse™
Cold Double Pulse™
Cold Double Pulse™ (CDP™)
Cold Double Pulse produces very high quality welds on
thin material while avoiding distortion. CDP™ gives a
TIG appearance to the weld and is very effective on
very thin aluminium or stainless steel sheet (< 2mm).
The operating technique is made easier due to good
control of the weld pool even on badly-prepared
sheets. This sequencer mode automatically chains
hot arc and cold arc regimes together.

MIG Brazing
MIG Brazing is extremely effective on thin sheets and
accepts large joint tolerances.
This process is widely used in the automobile industry
as it gives good mechanical characteristics
and conserves the coating of galvanized sheets.
It is an advantageous replacement for flame brazing
processes with the productivity of semi-automatic
welding.
Main applications of MB:
Automobile, heavy vehicles
Metal furniture.
Air conditioning
MIG Brazing advantages
•

Spray-MODAL™ (SM™)*
Spray-MODAL™ is a process that strongly reduces micro
porosity and increases penetration.
It can be used in all positions and is particularly effective
on aluminium sheets greater than 3 mm. SprayMODAL™ uses a low-frequency modulated current which
has the effect of removing most hydrogen bubbles from
the weld pool before solidification.
Main applications of SM™:
Naval
Rail
Boiler making

TIG and PLASMA installations
This installation was developed and built for
large-capacity stainless steel boiler makers (basic
activity transport and storage of chemical products and
foodstuffs with series 300 stainless steels, thickness
from 1 to 8-10 mm).
Nertamatic 450 bicathode
plasma + TIG
This tool is ideal for assembling
panels for the prefabrication
of vessels longer than 4 meters
and carrying out circular welds
for diameters greater than 2 meters.
Equipment
It uses Air Liquide Welding's original plasma + TIG
process whereby the first "plasma" torch penetrates the
2002-468
2003-029
butt-jointed panels. The second "TIG" torch equipped with
metal filler, electromagnetic arc oscillation and a gas
MEC4
2002-023
1202-043
protection carriage produces a perfect surface finish which
can often be left without further treatment.
SP7
This process of using 2 torches in tandem gives a
productivity gain of 30-50 % over a single-torch plasma
installation.

TOPTIG innovative process principle
Electrode
In TIG automatic welding mode, the filler wire is fed into
Filler
metal
the weld pool in front of the torch. A feature of the
TOPTIG process is that the melting of the filler wire is
equivalent to MIG.
Indeed, the support wire is fed throught the welding
Liquid

Arc
nozzle into precisely that area of the arc where the
temperatures are the highest. The wire therefore melts
into small droplets exactly as in the MIG process.
Direction of torch travel
The use of a pulsed current synchronized with wire gives
a better control over the welding operation.

and the scope of robotization is
widened.
On classical robotic TIG torches,
the filler metal is brought by an
external cross and the wire is
oriented with an angle close to 90°
relative to the electrode. Moreover,
the cross can only be positioned ahead of the torch and these features bring
problems in terms of access, positioning and reliability.

To optimise the TOPTIG process, the torch is interfaced to a push-push
high-quality wire feeder which guarantees the precision of the wire
feeding. In order to prevent damage in case of a trajectory error (for robot) the
torch is installed via an anti-collision device. Depending on the application and the
welding current, an air-cooled or water-cooled torch nozzle, the size of the
electrode and the appropriate wear parts can be chosen.
