Does Fume Extractor Distance Affect Welding Process? (CAVILUX Lasers and Schlieren Imaging)

Dive into the mesmerizing realm of MAG welding, captured at an incredible 2,000 frames per second using CAVILUX laser illumination and Cavitar Schlieren Imaging Solution. Witness the invisible unfold—gas flows, spatter, pre-gas, post-gas—all brought to light by removing the thermal glare.

Explore four distinct scenarios in our video:

• Top Left: No fume extractor
• Top Right: Fume extractor at 120 mm
• Bottom Left: Fume extractor at 160 mm
• Bottom Right: Fume extractor at 200 mm

Our senior welding educator Juha Kauhanen emphasizes the critical role of a fume extractor in workplace safety. Discover the delicate balance—too close risks oxidizing the weld, while too far fails to eliminate all gas and fumes. The smallest particles, unseen by the naked eye, come to life under the scrutiny of Cavitar technology.

Safety matters! See what you have missed and gain insights into the intricate dance of shielding gas. Let Cavitar guide you through the nuances of fume extractor placement, ensuring a clean weld without compromising the welding process.
