In wire mesh partitions manufacturing, nothing
plays a more important role in ensuring the strength, rigidity
and durability of each partition than the process of electric
arc welding. This type of welding provides a greater percentage
of quality, uniform welds that are as strong as welds made
by any other process.
Without electric arc welding, wire partitioning
would have to be made using
a completely different, and in some cases, more costly method.
How Electric Arc Welding Works
Electric arc welding (also called spot welding) joins two pieces
of metal by using the intense heat produced by electrical
resistance. A heavy electric current applied at low voltage
causes a concentration of heat in the metal on each side of
the joint. When the metals reach the required welding heat,
pressure is exerted to force the welding surfaces together.
In making wire partitioning, steel wire strands are arranged
perpendicularly with the points of contact welded together
at each intersection. No solder or foreign metal is added
at the joint. Instead, the intersecting welds form a homogeneous
union that ensures the spacing and alignment are secure and
permanent. This allows wire mesh partitions to better maintain
their shape when stressed.
Advantages of Electric Welding Wire Mesh Partitions
For manufacturers of wire mesh partitions, there are several
advantages to using electric arc welding:
No other welding process delivers more heat to a confined
area as quickly. With ample amounts of power, many welds
can be made in the quickest time possible. In addition
to saving time, better results are achieved this way.
10 gauge steel wire strands used in making wire mesh partitions take a fraction of a second to weld.
With the electric process, no preparation of the metal
is required other than ensuring the welding surfaces be
clean. An electrical arc weld is less labor intensive
and more often stronger than riveting.
Because of the high heat concentration, electric arc
welding doesn’t cause distortion in the weld. Work
pieces of various strength can also be welded with each
other without any problems.
The cost of labor is greatly reduced. Electric arc welding
machines can be operated continuously or intermittently
as necessary, so that the greatest amount of work will
be handled by the machine. An experienced operator is
not required to operate an electric arc welding machine.
His only duties consists of securing the metal wires
in the dies of the machine and closing the switch.
The object of welding is basically to produce a quality
weld in the least amount of time.
For this reason, electric arc welding is used extensively
in wire partitions manufacturing.
