That's awesome. I do the rocking thing. I agree with you. Plus it makes it look a little better.

I had to weld half inch carbon sheets together recently and my foreman had me use this process. I had never used it before. It’s hot hot hot. Gets bright after a couple hours. But it’s really quick and clean.

This is the best welding channel I have seen on KZread

New lenses are nice but I still tilt my head to drop my huntsman haha. Old submarine welder here, tx for the memories and good job!

Brilliant! That last fillet weld sounded so smooth, great tutorial again........Thanks Bob!

I'm a Rocker and it's not liked on a lot of jobs/tests, trouble is I've been doing it 36 years so I'm not stopping.

I love welding with this process, great video

I absolutely love the sound of a MIG torch.

Thank you, Bob. I always enjoy your videos, learn a lot.

Hey man. It's been 4 years. What are you up to?

True class act Bob! Great work to both you and camera guy!!

Hi Bob could you do some technical non welding stuff such as setting up manifold systems for delivery of gases in various ratio's for mig and tig workshop/bench welding

I love those tweco and Bernard mig guns,they don't feel like a toy gun mig guns.

Bob you are an absolute rock star! Thank you for all your knowledge 🤟

Spray welding sounds interesting. I might try this with my Everlast welder.

We roll all our pipe in our shop and spray all the hot, filler and cover passes. We can spray down to 3" schedule 40 with 035. wire. We usually stay with the .035 wire for most pipe sizes unless we are getting into the bigger stuff like 24 or 30 inch pipe.

Love your vids and its good to know you still get "frisky" great welds down under.

Thank you so much for this video and have a merry Christmas!!!

I think the sharp "pop" that occurs every so often during Bob's demonstration may be caused by an intermittent loss of grounding. Good grounding is extremely critical during spray transfer, wether it's welding with solid wire or cored wires. I deal with these issues constantly in the hard facing business, and I have found that the more contact points for grounding you can have between the lead and the work piece, the better off you will be. I use some old lead cable in between the ground clamp and the steel table when working on a table like Bob's, it really makes a big difference. Great video Bob keep them coming!!!

The kind of oscillating he is doing makes the wire almost touch the puddle, hence the "pops". Watch from 11:10

I do agree with you, when he does the rocking back motion, the wire does hang out in the puddle a little too long, which will create some disturbance.

Would you recommend I hit my ground clamp at work with an abrasive and move clamp closer to my work piece to mitigate spatter?

Sir. I ran across this video and I love spray transfer. I am also surprised at the amount of people that don't know about this prosses. If you would try something when I was in school we had a military trailer factory near us and they came and demonstrated a vertical up with spray. The trick is to trigger on counts, but not let the puddle cool completely before triggering you count again. I know that it works because I passed multiple 3/8 bend test with this technique. Thanks

Good stuff there, Bob! I use almost the exact same consumable setup for my work. 92/08 gas, I run .035-.045 70 s-6 wire.... Same rough stickout. Difference is, I program robots to lay em down for me. (I do them manually as well.) Very happy to see I'm doing it right!

I want to do some aluminum welding with my Everlast welder. I've already got the spoolgun on order. I can't wait to try spray welding.

Cheers Bob from Aussie Land. I also have to maintain a slight oscillation in my welds to control my timing and weld pool size. Especially when I do a 10 -12 hr shift working in heavy Fabrication on large earth moving buckets, with all the heat coming off the job and the noise all around me I go into zombie mode. So the back / forth technique, which is automatic for me keeps everything under -control. (Duel shield Flux cored 1.6 mm in spray mode 28 - 30 Volts / 300 - 340 Amps multiple pass's). P.S. I found having about 20 mm stick out gives an excellent result ; it allows for any oil on the wire (from manufacture) to burn off, and not end up in the weld.

At my work we have 75/25 argon,co2 and we spray all the time production is so fast ! I love it . Great vid bob!

Just really love your videos fella. Very informative and totally right on and correct. VF

I have run a spray arc downhill. Using a small percentage of oxygen in the gas. a tri-mixture. We would run downhill with the gun angled up, traveling fast, continuous 60 inch long beads, customer wanted no stops. 1/8 inch sheet, had to learn to walk down a ladder while running the bead. Anyway love the channel.

Welding going down a ladder is what I have to do running finish welds on dump trucks. Long pretty downhills with no breaks. I love it. It really helps if you can run one handed. Makes going down the ladder easier when you have a free hand.

I use to build roll away dumpsters and did 50 feet of overhead fillet welds on each can. It's easy after you're use to the spray. And I'd run a 4 foot weld on a vertical wall downhill in one pass.

We're using it in a clean water tank to reduce hexchrome. Our ss is too thin to run it effectively tho i think. Great info boss.👍😎

Love the videos, thanks for sharing!

Pretty nice video it’s very informational and answered most my questions

I've done spray transfer overhead, if you weld right into a bevel it sucks it right in and looks just as good as if you did it flat.

I'm a total uneducated/self-taught welder, this is the setting that I've discovered I love! I use this doing even sheet metal rust repair and such. It helps tack stack technique make a nice really well penetrated weld that doesn't have a huge bead to grind off. I even used this to weld up a differential using my little 110v mig. I was able to just crank multiple passes into it no problem.

Hello Bob, I enjoy your presentations on mig welding. I have owned a 180A. Lincoln buzz box for over fifty years that has been used for farm repair and fabrication with 6013 rod for most jobs. A couple years ago I picked up an SP-250 to build a round bale trailer. I have been able to get decent looking beads that lay on top with no penetration to speak of. Back to the buzz box. The machine has .045 wire. I believe the gas is 25/75. Most of the work is A36. Should I sell or trade it for a stick/tig ac-dc machine. There have been times that it is close to getting adjusted with a sledgehammer. Any ideas? Thank you for listening to my frustrations. Do you have a couch Doc?

Thank you so much you helped me to pass a test with your instructions keep it up

Sweet welding jacket Bob!!

*kek Making truck parts and truck accessory, I"d set a miller 350P to 666 wfs and 27.5v make some nice weaves and freak out the few hoodlums from Puerto Rico. would play with the pulse mode sometimes. you set the length and width of the arc, and the on/off time (off being a "still lit arc" but 50% less heat) fun to play with, but without any prior arc time, in a production shop, was hard to figure out the right setting for a range of thicknesses on A32 mild and 309 stainless .045 and .035 respectfully .

Where'd you get that Jacket? Love your videos, you are helping me tons

It will be nice if include the explanation of purpose for each process & the setting for each type of gas. Good video.

Mig sprayweld is just high voltage with its respective wire speed. If youre experienced you set this up by ear...and do the drag or zig forward zig backwards...kinda like welding fluxcore

Great vid!, Hey I need advise about this welding I'm working on; 1/2"-1/8" Tee weld. 1/2" is a plate and 1/8" is a square tube against it. I want to take it spray, but I guess the great amp that is needed may easily pierce the tube. What'd be your estimated setup for this weld? Would you use weaving or just straight? Thank you.

Welding is an art form

i've been having such a hard time at work, for the past 2 weeks ive been trying to play with the settings, im using a miller cp302 with an older 60 series wire feeder, running providence .045 er70s6 and 90/10 gas. the only time ive been able to achieve a spray arc transfer is at 350 inches a minute and 32 volts with a 1'' stickout and it works good for 1/4'' and up but i work for a company called blueline manufacturing in washington and i manufacture agricultural equipment and sometimes we have gaps and each weld is different, every other weld is a different position from a open gap vertical down to a flat fillet to a vertical down fillet to a T joint to a butt joint to overhead to a vertical down butt weld. On 1/4'' square tube i have been able to do spray arc at 32 volts and 350'' a minute with ,045 er70s6 but for verticle down and overhead butt joints it drips too much, even at 24 volts and 315 inches per minute with short circuit it was too much and too runny, for verticle down, overhead and tight horizontal welds i have been running short circuit at 22.5 volts and 300 inches per minute and works great but for some vertical and flat positions i want to run very hot and for the 1/2'' to 1'' plate and 1-1/4'' plates i want to do spray and the only time ive been able to achieve it is at a minimum of 32 volts and 350'' per minute and higher, at 300'' per minute and 27 volts i can do globular transfer but its such a mess and im trying to achieve spray arc at 26 to 27 volts but im having a hard time trying to get my wire feed settings dialed in, my welder goes up to 450 amps and the wirefeed maxes at 700 inches a minute, at 350 wire feed speed and 32 to 33 volts i can achieve a spray arc, at 300 inches a minute and between 26.5 to 28 volts i can achieve a globular transfer, im wondering when i get to globular and i want to achieve a spray arc do i increase my voltage or do i decrease it??? at 300 inches a minute and 27 volts i am at globular transfer and if i increase it, it becomes a short arc tranfer, even at 375 inches per minute and at 27.5 volts and a 3/4'' to 1'' stickout even down to a 1/2'' stickout still is at a short circuit range, im having such a difficult time and its driving me insane and i am completely lost and have been getting extremely frustrated, i contacted miller 2 days ago and still havent recieved any answers and i would like to know at 300 inches per minute and at 27 volts i am at a globular transfer, i want to be at 27 volts and at a spray arc transfer, if i am at a globular transfer at 27 volts and 300'' per minute should i increase or decrease my wire feed speed to achieve a spray transfer?? im really lost, frustrated and i could really really really use some advice please please please, this is driving me absolutely crazy and im losing hours and hours of sleep each night over it and i stress so much throughout the day trying to figure it out, if anyone at all can help me please i beg of you for some advice, this has been an ongoing struggle and i dont know what to do next, i have a good ground by the way directly to the part and the material is nice, clean and no oil or contaminants or mill scale what so ever, perfectly clean metal with a good solid ground and am still having trouble

You need to turn your heat up. Spray takes more heat than globular. When practicing I would be running 28v with 035 wire.

We run Lincoln rapid x at 400 and 1.05v works fine in all positions and down to 1/8 inch plate can you demo some pulse

I learned something today! Spray MIG huh. Seems comparable to a stick pipe weld, maybe even better.

Iv done spray with metal core going downhill. Not ideal but its doable as long as it's not a structural weld

Hi,Bob, I have a 1/2" steel plate that is weed to a square tube support frame. The plate has a bend in it on an edge. We want to flatten the plate by filling bend with weld, would you recommend this type of welding to fill that or would some other process work better? What about metal powder spray welding?

In the motion of your welding, is the arc momentarily short circuiting, as I can hear the crackle on the backward motion? Thanks. Man, I wish I had your demeanor when teaching, so practical, straight forward which reduces anxiety.

I use 90/10 for my spray. My HTP Pro Pulse 200 will Weld it out nicely. I can decide if I want to pulse spray or just spray as well. It seems to really like that gas. It’s synergic so the arc is amazing. Have you ever checked out the HTP machines made by Stel Bob?

Wanted to add this, even though it's a year later. In spray the arc *shouldn't* go out as it does in short-circuit. That's also one of the reasons it resembles tig, much like the tungsten always keeping that arc lit. Even when watching a welder run short circuit, if you look at the walls/surroundings around them you'll see a slight flicker. In spray it's a constant stream of light, just like TIG welding. I'm just pointing that out, I suspect you already know this!
