PROCESS AND EQUIPMENT (1) EXAM
PREP BUNDLE | STUDY NOTES +
PRACTICE Q&A
A - correct answers ✔✔When an arc is formed between two electrodes:
A) electricity flows from the negative cathode to the positive anode.
B) electricity flows from the positive cathode to the negative anode.
C) electricity flows at random between the anode and cathode.
D) electricity stops flowing once the arc is established
C - correct answers ✔✔The SAW fluxes are:
A) classified on their own. They have their own separate designation.
, B) not classified. Only the wire is classified.
C) classified in conjunction with the welding wire forming an electrode/flux designation.
D) all classified with EM12K wire. Use of other wires would require companies to
perform testing to verify desired properties.
D - correct answers ✔✔The CSA W48 standard classes metal cored wires along with:
A) GMAW wires.
B) GTAW filler wires.
C) SAW wires.
D) FCAW wires.
D - correct answers ✔✔The submerged arc welding process:
A) can only be used with a constant voltage power supply.
B) can only be used with a constant current power supply.
C) can only be used with a constant current power supply with high frequency.
D) can be used with either a constant voltage or constant current power supply.
B - correct answers ✔✔The advantage of pulsed GMAW transfer is:
A) the ability to weld gauge materials with no burn-through.
B) reduced heat input.
C) less operator skill is required.
D) increased productivity.
D - correct answers ✔✔What is the weld called when no filler is added while using the
gas tungsten arc welding process?
A) Surface weld
B) Automatic weld
C) Braze weld
D) Autogenous weld
C - correct answers ✔✔The SAW fluxes that significantly influence the composition of
the weld metal through slag/metal reactions are called:
(A) fused
.B) bonded.
C) active.
D) neutral.
B - correct answers ✔✔What are examples of an F3 fast-freeze SMAW electrode?
A) EXX15, EXX16, EXX18
B) EXX10, EXX11
