Re: [MW:13137] what is the root cause for copper crack in saw welding ?

When you weld vessels or drums sometimes from the electrical cable also copper entraps into the weld. One beauty is that copper in the weld tends to penetrate deeper during gouging. Hence first the defect depth has to be identified and the copper deposists which causes cracks need to be grinded out.

we have lot of exp in this subject, while welding water wall panel by
saw, accidently contact tip touches the weld zone and get short
circuited then tip melting takes place, in this unless overweld on
this area, no harm otherwise fissing and cracks takes place. we have
design and developed new contact tip to overcome this problebm
