The tungsten electrode is a cylindrical tungsten pin made by adding rare earth oxides in tungsten, which has the advantages of high melting point, good corrosion resistance, high density, excellent thermal and conductive performance. Before use, the end of the tungsten electrode close to the welding element needs to be grinded and sharpened to a taper shape with a sharp or flat end according to the using demand.
The sharp and taper end of the tungsten electrode plays an important role in the arc striking, arc stability and the welding quality of the argon tungsten arc welding. The angle of the sharp end determines the depth of arc intrusion into the welding element. The trace line on the outer surface of the sharp end caused by grinding needs to be longitudinal, which is consistent with the axis of the tungsten electrode and the current direction. Otherwise, the arc is easy to be unstable and it is easy to cause arc extinction.
At present, it is generally to use large equipment like the numeral control machine, grinding machine and wire cutting machine to process the tungsten electrode. Since the equipment is large and expensive, the processing cost is extremely high, so that it is only suitable for the batch production and is not suitable for the small batch tungsten electrode processing. During processing the tungsten electrode, the small equipment in the market is hard to control the grinding angle, so that the tungsten electrode has a bad coaxiality and the sharp end is easy to be eccentric, further to influence the using performance of the tungsten electrode, which is needed to be improved.
In order to solve the problem that it is hard to accurately control the grinding angle of the tungsten electrode, the present application provides a grinding machine for tungsten electrode.
