Cos'è la Saldatura ad Elettrodo?
Coated electrode welding is a manual autogenous welding process that takes advantage of the heat generated by an arc striking between a fusible coated electrode and the workpiece. This process is one of the most commonly used in welding, mainly because of the advantage of its versatility.
Cosa si può realizzare con la Saldatura ad Elettrodo?
In fact, it makes it possible to make joints in any position, to weld on the shop floor or in confined and confined areas (e.g., double bottoms of ships, inside of equipment, inside parts of structures) and even, with some precautions against drafts and rain, in the Shipyard. When the generator is heavy and not easily transportable, power cables can be sufficiently long to handle.
Almost all ferrous and nonferrous metals (e.g., nickel and its alloys) are welded by this process. Insufficiently good results are obtained with aluminum and its alloys and with pure copper and some of its alloys, while low melting point metals such as zinc, lead, tin, or those requiring special protection such as titanium and its alloys cannot even be welded. The operational limitations of the process consist of limited productivity, since each worn electrode must be replaced with a new one and slag must be removed from the deposited metal after each pass.
Our Electrode Welding Course, consists largely of hands-on workshop exercises.

Vuoi trovare lavoro come Saldatore ad Elettrodo?
How do you find Jobs for Electrode Welder?
This is the search and selection process for metal companies:
The company posts online and offline (through job agencies or other channels) a job application for a welder
Once the company receives applications, only welders who have a Welding License or have already worked with the company are chosen
The company has an in-house welding test conducted in its shop, usually very similar to the examination for the License
La nostra Scuola di Saldatura, ti fa allenare proprio sui possibili test di saldatura che ti possono capitare durante l’esame del Patentino per Saldatore a Elettrodo e i test che ti potrebbe sottoporre l’azienda prima di assumerti.

Che scuola bisogna fare per fare il Corso di Saldatura ad Elettrodo e ricevere il
Patentino di Saldatura ad Elettrodo
(SMAW - MMA) ?
The Electrode Welding License according to UNI EN 9606 or UNI EN 287 certification is the most important qualification a welder can have; it attests to the excellent qualities of the electrode welder. Our Welding Course is built to prepare you to pass the exam and receive the Welding License.
Quando è obbligatorio il patentino da saldatore?
Il patentino è obbligatorio dal 1° luglio 2014 per tutti coloro che operano in aziende e officine. La nostra Scuola di Saldatura ti Garantisce il raggiungimento dell’obiettivo Patentino di Saldatura ad Elettrodo anche se parti da 0.
Per prendere il Patentino di Saldatura, non ci sono raccomandazioni, devi essere un saldatore di alta qualità e il giorno dell’esame davanti ad un ispettore della Saldatura, devi svolgere delle saldatura che verranno giudicate visivamente e in laboratorio tramite delle prove di rottura o radiografia.
Quindi è consigliato scegliere un Corso di Saldatura ad Elettrodo molto professionale che ti porti a questo risultato.

L' Elettrodo Rivestito
During the Electrode Welding Course, we will teach you how to choose and use the electrode according to the characteristics of the base material to be welded. The coated electrode consists of two parts namely, a metal core that acts as a filler material and a coating that provides protection.
During welding, the electrode core melts and, in the form of droplets, transfers into the weld pool; at the same time, the cladding also follows the core into the weld pool. Part of the filler material volatilizes, creating gases that protect the arc, reducing the danger of oxidation.
What is the welding electrode?
The coated electrode is the only consumable in this welding process. It consists of a metal core around which is a coating; during welding there is melting of the core, which in the form of droplets is transferred to the melting bath, as well as of a part of the coating that follows that of the core with a certain delay, so as to form a kind of cup at the end of the electrode.
Part of the coating volatilizes with gas formation that replaces air in the arc zone, reducing the danger of bath contamination. The melting part of the coating wraps around the droplets, protecting them during transfer, enters the melt bath, reacts chemically with it, and is quickly brought to the surface: after solidification, it constitutes the "slag," which must be subsequently removed.
During the Electrode Welder Course we will teach you and let you try different types of electrodes.
Types of Electrode Coating
The electrode differs in material composition, size, and coating. There are different types of coating:
Acid Coating
Cellulosic coatings
Rutile coatings
Basic coatings
Quali sono i rischi e i difetti della Saldatura ad Elettrodo?
During the Electrode Welding Course, we will teach you how to make the highest quality welds and thus avoid the following and common defects of electrode welding beads.
Basic coatings
Marginal engravings
Cracks (Hot and cold cracks)
Lack of in-plane, corner and fusion penetration
Irregular appearance
Blowouts
Lack of metal
Excessive overthickness
Porosity
Electrode Welding Machine
The electrode welding equipment consists of a generator and two clamps: one for the ground and the other for the electrode holder.
The Generator of the Electrode Welding Machine can operate on direct and alternating current and must have the necessary power to trigger the electric arc and keep it stable throughout the welding process.
