AMI, a brand of ESAB expand its presence in tungsten electrode market with launch of orbistar tungsten electrodes

 

Tungsten Electrode Market

Advancement in technology is playing a key role in the overall development of the tungsten electrode market. For instance, In November 2019, AMI, a brand of ESAB launched orbistar tungsten electrodes for enhanced orbital tig equipment performance. The product is was manufactured by collaborating with Wolfram Industrie which is a manufacturer of premium tungstens and molybdenum materials. The product facilitates superior arc stability and arc starting performance due to its purity, controlled grain size & manufacturing process, and others. Increasing demand from welding applications is again fostering the growth of the market. Tungsten electrodes are alloyed with metals such as stainless steel, and nickel. Moreover, it also reduces exposure during welding. This advantage is projected to propel the growth of the tungsten electrodes market.

In November 2019, AMI, an ESAB brand, has collaborated with Wolfram Industrie, a vertically integrated manufacturer of premium tungsten and molybdenum materials, to offer an exclusive line of tungsten electrodes for orbital TIG welding.

North America is expected to hold a dominant position in the global tungsten electrodes market owing to the presence of key players such as Astaras, Inc., and Diamond Ground Products in the region.  For instance, Astaras, Inc. one of the leaders in market offer tungsten electrodes for application of MIG and TIG welding in North America. The company also offers new tungsten electrodes such as E3 tungsten electrodes in the region.

Key players engaged in the global tungsten electrode market are Diamond Ground Products, Weldstone, Winner Tungsten Products Co. Ltd., Astaras, Inc., Huntingdon Fusion Techniques, BGRIMM Advanced Materials Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Metal Cutting, Sunrain Tungsten, and ATTL Advanced Materials Co., Ltd.

Tungsten electrodes are usually used when welding with the Tungsten inert gas (TIG). In both procedures, the electrode, the weld, and arc pool are highly protected from airborne contamination by inert gas. Tungsten electrodes are used mainly because it is able to withstand extremely high temperature with little erosion or melting. It is the ability to resist high temperature that has made tungsten electrodes so popular in welding processes like tig welding, arc welding, and plasma arc welding, and even in some instances of hot metal arc welding (MHW). This property also makes them suitable for high-temperature coating and shielding of other metals as well. The fact that tungsten electrodes can be welded with almost any alloy makes them highly compatible with a wide range of metal alloys. They are a very good conductor of electricity and have very little loss of current.
