2. Flux-cored arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux-cored_arc_welding

   Flux-cored arc welding (FCAW or FCA) is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process. FCAW requires a continuously-fed consumable tubular electrode containing a flux and a constant- voltage or, less commonly, a constant- current welding power supply .

3. Gas metal arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_metal_arc_welding

   Flux-cored wire is considered to have some advantages for outdoor welding on-site, as the shielding gas plume is less likely to be blown away in a wind than shield gas from a conventional nozzle. [59] [60] A slight drawback is that, like SMAW (stick) welding, there may be some flux deposited over the weld bead, requiring more of a cleaning ...

4. Arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

   The slag that forms on the weld generally comes off by itself and, combined with the use of a continuous wire feed, the weld deposition rate is high. Working conditions are much improved over other arc welding processes since the flux hides the arc and no smoke is produced. The process is commonly used in industry, especially for large products ...

6. Slag (welding) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slag_(welding)

   Welding slag is a form of slag, or vitreous material produced as a byproduct of some arc welding processes, most specifically shielded metal arc welding (also known as stick welding), submerged arc welding, and flux-cored arc welding.

7. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

   Other arc welding processes use alternative methods of protecting the weld from the atmosphere as well – shielded metal arc welding, for example, uses an electrode covered in a flux that produces carbon dioxide when consumed, a semi-inert gas that is an acceptable shielding gas for welding steel.
