We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Electrodes",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Wires offer easy welding from
ESAB, which we summarised at the time by saying "The slag from Shield-Bright stainless cored wires is self-lifting or easily detached, leaving behind clean, flat weld surface with a good penetration and very smooth wetting onto the plate
edges".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Welding electrodes come in slimline packs from
ESAB: "New package provides improved product protection and the reduced weight makes it easier to handle".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Murex Welding Products
concerning its Transtig AC/DC 253iS
- take a look at Cutting the cost of industrial welding
which says: "The Transtig AC/DC 253iS is state of the art welding package offering excellent welding characteristics and performance in both AC and DC modes".
Take a look also at the news release from ESAB, Manual metal arc welding electrodes explained,
as well as Linear stages provide compact solution from PI (Physik Instrumente),
and Compact pressure sensors detect small changes from Alps Electric (UK).
