Aluminum Welding with DCEP
I had a request for this video of aluminum welding with Direct Current Electrode Positive or DCEP by a subscriber named Immigrant Freedom. I have never tried this before, and maybe it is just me or my machine, but I could not hold a consistent arc unless I had the high frequency arc start on, and using my thumb control. With the use of both of those it welded ok, but was still a very hot arc which made the use of a large tungsten electrode, 1/8” or 5/32” a necessity, and because your welding at the electrical companies 60 hertz input and output the tungsten will ball, this makes welding thinner materials more difficult as it is much harder to direct the arc with a balled tungsten compared with a sharp tungsten, square wave and 200 hertz output. Also all the excess heat is rough on ceramic cups, I ruined a couple making this video. All in all this does work, but if you already need to have the thumb control and high frequency arc starting, why not get an AC/DC machine. Now that I know it works I will stick to my AC high frequency arc starting square wave technology Miller Dynasty 200. Sorry Immigration Freedom I am pretty sure this was not what you wanted to hear, but I’m always going give it my best shot and my opinion, good luck!
