USING PROVISIONAL DAM SYSTEMS Flexible Welding Enclosures ARGWELD® Flexible Welding Enclosures 2 The range of 'Flexible Welding Enclosures' has been designed for applications where a rigid chamber may not be economically viable, where space may be at a premium or where a transportable system is desirable.

USING PROVISIONAL DAM SYSTEMS Advantages ARGWELD® Flexible Welding Enclosures 3 ¡ Frees up valuable floor space ¡ Fast delivery ¡ Bright, shiny, oxide free welds ¡ Very low cost, yet high quality ¡ Operator comfort and ease of use ¡ Fast, easy purge

USING PROVISIONAL DAM SYSTEMS Flexible Welding Enclosures ARGWELD® Flexible Welding Enclosures 4 ARGWELD ® Flexible Welding Enclosures can achieve an oxygen level of 20 parts per million or less for the satisfactory welding of reactive materials

USING PROVISIONAL DAM SYSTEMS Applications ARGWELD® Flexible Welding Enclosures 5 ¡ The welding of stainless steel components ¡ Nuclear and chemical industries ¡ Eliminate the expensive cleaning of discoloration ¡ The occasional and production welding of titanium and nickel alloy components for the aerospace industry (Jet Aero engines) ¡ Medical instrument and surgical implant manufacturers ¡ Sports and racing car industries

USING PROVISIONAL DAM SYSTEMS Misconceptions ARGWELD® Flexible Welding Enclosures 6 ¡ Cold purge gas takes away any heat emitted from the welding process and the heated metal without detrimental effects to the HFT PVC Enclosures ¡ TIG Welding does not produce sparks. Titanium has to be TIG welded with low heat input process using a small, shielded arc Most common misconception: Welding in a plas,c enclosure doesn’t necessarily melt it! ¡ Most titanium components are lightweight and thin wall: welding current is quite low and creates low heat input to the welding environment. ¡ The PVC...

Note: All parts being brought inside a welding enclosure must be cleaned and be grease free. (Rotary manipulator bearings for example my have oils containing water and absorbed oxygen. The bearings should be exchanged with those lubricated by graphite
