What's the difference between MIG and MAG?
The big difference between MIG welding and MAG welding is the type of shielding gas you use: Inert or Active. The welding process remains the same, which means that MIG/MAG welding is seen as the same technique.
With MIG/MAG welding, the filler material or welding wire comes out of the welding torch automatically and continuously at the speed you choose. After all, you work with a pre-placed water coil in the device to continue to provide the additive material.
Partly because of this, it is a popular and very fast welding technique in the metal industry because of its simplicity with large welding works and surfaces.
How does it work?
A MIG/MAG welding machine works with a constant electrical voltage, which creates a plasma arc between the welding wire and the workpiece. The workpiece is heated and the materials to be welded melt together. The welding wire acts as an electrode and filler material, so that you can work quickly and easily.
The welding wire is placed in the device and continuously mechanically fed to the torch. Depending on the work, the person will set the speed and current to place the most ideal weld. The function of the added gas is to protect the molten pool against overheating of the materials.
When to use it?
Because MIG/MAG welding works quickly and ensures a high-quality result, it is widely used in the (metal) industry. The welding process is mainly used in places where high productivity is important.
In the meantime, there are also options for working with a gas-filled welding wire, so that you no longer need an external gas bottle. Combined with a compact and portable welding machine, it also makes this a lot more attractive for work on the move, where mobility and speed are important.
What do you need?
You need the following minimum items for MIG/MAG welding:
- A welding machine with support for MIG/MAG welding
- A ground terminal
- A MIG/MAG torch
- Welding wire on coil
- Gas (or gas-filled welding wire)
What materials can you weld?
You can weld all types of steel and stainless steel of different thicknesses with this technique. However, for aluminum welding, the welding machine must have a pulse function. The current level then changes between base current and peak current, so that you can weld thin and vulnerable material such as aluminum in a very controlled manner, without the top layer burning.What are the advantages?
The main advantages:
- Quick and easy technique
- Many possibilities in use of materials
- Automatic and constant supply of filler material
- Useful for large welding jobs
What are the disadvantages?
The main disadvantages:
- Spatter may occur near the welding work
- Difficult to use outdoors due to the need for the shielding gas
