CHAPTER 1
ARC WELDER
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This is a transformer type arc welder that will transform incoming high voltage, low amperage
electricity into high amperage, low voltage welding current. An arc welder should be on a separate
circuit of its own with a 50 amp. Breaker and in our welding transformer it will take from power
supply 220volt and 3 amps no load current and it give output of 200 amp range current and 40 volt
at output terminals. And it melts the 8 no. rod to weld any metallic surface. The diagram of the
transformer is shown as below.

CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN OF WELDING
TRANSFORMER
3.1. CORE
The performance of a transformer mainly depends upon the flux linkages between the
windings. For efficient flux linking between the windings, one low reluctance magnetic
path common to all windings should be provided in the transformer. This low reluctance
magnetic path in transformer is known as core of transformer.
We used an insulated metal strip (CRGO) of size 92 and 52 for a construction of a core
of a transformer. The size of the core of transformer is 9 of length and 9 inches of
breadth. The weight of a whole transformer core is 14.5 kg. The construction of core is
shown in the figure 2.1 below.
FIGURE 3.1: CORE OF TRANSFORMER (TOP VIEW)
In this we made a core type construction for a transformer, in which we placed two coils in
each of the vertical leg of the core. When these lamination stampings is connected together

form the required core shape as shown in above figure2.1 and their side view of core also
shown in the figure2.2.
FIGURE 3.2: FRONT VEW OF CORE
3.2 COILS CONSTRUCTION
The conducting material used for the windings depends upon the application, but in all
cases the individual turns must be electrically insulated from each other to ensure that the
current travels throughout every turn. The coils used for this transformer are form-wound
and are of cylindrical type. The cylindrical coils will have different layers and each layer
will be insulated from the other with the help of materials like paper, cloth, etc.
2.2.1. Primary winding:
The transformer's primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the core and a
varying magnetic field affect on the secondary winding. This varying magnetic field at the
secondary induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) or voltage in the
secondary winding.
For the construction of primary winding coil DCC conductor is used, which come in
different size. For the primary coil we use 2.4 kilograms of 10 SWG aluminium DCC

conductors. The coil made by wrapping the conductors in a cylindrical form layer by layer.
Paper is used to insulate the different layers of the coil.
In the primary winding coil there is 125 numbers of turns in each coil.there are fours
tapping is available in primary coil in every 24 turns.
No. of turns in primary coil each, N1 =125

3.2.2. Secondary Winding
The secondary winding that provides the output to the load or loads. The flux, produced by
primary winding, passes through the core, will link with the secondary winding. The same

aluminium DCC conductor used in primary winding coil Is also used in secondary winding
coil. But size of the conductor for secondary winding is different. We use 2.4 kilograms of
4 SWG alluminium DCC conductors for secondary side coil. We made two coils for
secondary side of transformer. The each coil having a 38 number of turns.
No. of turns in secondary coil each, N2=38

CONNECTIONS
The connection of the welding transformer done in series connection. The coil is arranged
over the core in alternate form. In the first leg placed primary coil, then the secondary coil.
Similarly on the another leg put secondary coil first then primary coil over the secondary.
These coil insulated from each by using a insulated paper.

CONCLUSION
Welding is a fabrication process that joins materials; usually metals. This is often done by
melting the work-piece and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the
weld pool) that cools become a strong joint. The melting is achieved with pressure
sometimes used in conjunction with heat, to produce the weld. Different power supply can
be used for welding. Arc welding machine transform low voltage low amperage primary
power into the low voltage, high amperage power used for welding at high frequency. This
high frequency transformation helps to reduce the weight and size of the transformer.
The samples were characterized by means of tensile strength, hardness and elongation.
From the investigation it is found that an increase in welding speed increases the tensile
strength and increase in tool rotation speed, decreases the tensile strength.
Welding means the permanent joining together of components by means of heat or
pressure, with or without welding additives. It has specialized in arc welding, one of the
oldest electrical welding processes for metallic materials. This arc between a consumable
electrode as additive material and the work piece, functions as a heat source when welding.
