OXY-ACETYLENE WELDING
It is the common method of gas welding.
The oxy-acetylene welding process combines oxygen and
acetylene gas to provide a high temperature flame for
welding.
This temperature provides enough heat to melt most metal.
The chemical reaction between acetylene and oxygen is
exothermic in nature.
Oxy-acetylene flame may also be used for all types of
brazing.
Oxy-acetylene welding is a manual process.

WORKING PRINCIPLE
FIRE
IGNITION TEMPERATURE
1).CARBURIZING FLAME:
These flame contain excess of acetylene.
2).NEUTRAL FLAME:
If acetylene and oxygen are present in equal
3).OXIDIZING FLAME:
If flame has high oxygen content (ratio of oxygen &
steel.
