Development of Submerged Arc Welding Equipment in India

Abstract

Considerable progress has been made in the manufacture of equipment and consumables for manual welding in this country. In addition to manufacture of practically all types of electrodes, power sources of different kinds namely motor generators, transformers and transformer-rectifiers have been in production for quite some time. However, manufacture of semi-automatic and automatic welding equipment and the consumables needed for these processes has not made much progress till very recently.
