Twin-carbon arc welding
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unlike single-carbon arc welding, in twin-carbon arc welding (TCAW) the arc is maintained between two carbon (graphite) electrodes[1][2]: 22 held in a special holder.[2]: 67 The Ac current was usually used. It was switched on by operating bringing two electrodes closer by a mechanism which also adjusted arc length. The two electrodes touch momentarily, then separate and thus an arc is established.[1] TCAW is unshielded and no artificial pressure is applied.[2]: 22
