Understanding Welding Gun Angles The angle at which you position your welding gun significantly affects the quality of your welds. Here are some essential angles to consider: 1. Travel Angle The travel angle is the angle between the welding gun and the workpiece in the direction of movement. A recommended travel angle of 10 to 15 degrees helps achieve optimal penetration and bead shape. This angle allows the welder to maintain better control over the weld pool, ensuring a strong joint. 2. Work Angle The work angle is the ang...
