The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved. This study does not report actual sales data (which are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in virtually all of the 230 countries of the world). This study gives, however, my estimates for the worldwide latent demand, or the P.I.E., for stainless steel coiled and spooled continuous solid wire electrodes made from at least 4-percent chromium for automatic arc and inert gas welding excluding hard-facing electrodes. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided across the world's regional and national markets. For each country, I also show my estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time (positive or negative growth). In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on international strategic planning at graduate schools of business.

WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?

The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure, therefore, of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The ?market? is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level, at the wholesale level, the manufacturing level, and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain, assuming all levels maintain minimum profitability).

The latent demand for non-ferrous metal arc welding stick electrodes excluding hard-facing electrodes is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact, latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e., not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors, including the lack of international openness, cultural barriers to consumption, regulations, and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general, however, latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.

For reasons discussed later, this report does not consider the notion of ?unit quantities?, only total latent revenues (i.e., a calculation of price times quantity is never made, though one is impli

Aluminum Gas Welding Compared to Welding Steel Using the Gas Tungsten Arc Process

Aluminum gas welding can be accomplished with gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) and it can also be used to weld steel, as well as other metals. GTAW is also called tungsten inert gas (tig) welding. Welding steel is one of the easier jobs when using rig welding, but there are a number of factors, which make it much harder to weld aluminum.

From cleanliness, arc length, machine settings, welding with a dirty tungsten electrode, filler rod angle, type of electrode, torch angle and size of electrode - you have to be extra-careful with all of these factors when you tig weld aluminum.

Here we go over these factors and how you have to be much more careful with aluminum than with steel.

- Make sure that the settings for your machine are correct. Set your machine to use alternating current and the high frequency switch should be at continuous mode otherwise it will make the arc stutter.

- A piece or object of aluminum left outside is likely to be highly oxidized after having come in contact with the elements. That should be weld only after thoroughly cleaning it - otherwise it will burn or weld extremely fast.

- Arc length - it is important to keep the arc at just the correct length. Arc lengths too long or too short, both should be avoided with aluminum. Too short the length, you your metal will jump on your electrode, damaging that and you. Too long a length and the heat will not be pinpointed enough to be of proper use.

- Keep your electrode clean. A dirty electrode will make the weld sooty - taking any fun out of the job you may have been having.

- Do not use pure tungsten electrodes with the new types of tig inverters to weld aluminum. The old types could use them, but not these new ones.

- You should keep the 1/16", 3/32" and 1/8" sized tungsten electrodes within easy reach when working with aluminum. With steel it is one size fits all policy, where you can go with a 3/32" tungsten for most of the jobs. But with aluminum, you need different electrodes depending on the thickness of the aluminum.

Aluminum gas welding just needs to be done with more care than other types of welding. Keep all these factors in mind and you will have your boat repaired or your ladder fixed in the best possible manner.

How to Weld Steel

When learning how to weld steel we first need to determine both the type of steel to be welded and the thickness of the steel. Basic steel is typically mild steel that is used for most structural purposes and various other applications such as automotive bodies, chassis building and many types of appliances.

Stainless steel on the other hand comprises of different compositions of metals and requires specialized equipment for welding. A good test to differentiate mild steel from stainless steel is to try and attach a magnet to the metal. Stainless steel is not magnetic where as mild steel is.

There are four different types of welding techniques that can be used when learning how to weld steel and are as follows.

Gas welding.

Gas or oxy-acetylene welding is seldom used to weld steel these days. The process requires that the two metals to be welded are heated and fused together generally with the aid of a filler roe also made of steel. Best used for light metals and sheet metals.

Arc or stick welding.

Ideal for home use or maintenance. Arc welders can weld metals starting at 1/8th (3mm) inch thick up to 1 inch (25mm) thick. While the process. Thinner metals can be welded however it does require more skill. Stick welders use flux coated electrodes that are used to generate the electric arc or heat source and act as the filler material to fuse the steel.

Mig welding

Mig welding is the easiest way how to weld steel. Mig welders operate in a similar way to arc welders except the electrode is in the form of a continuous wire feed allowing the operator to work for long periods without the need to change the wire. The welding wire is contained on a spool that comes in various sizes depending on the machine.

Mig welders also use a shielding gas to prevent contamination at the weld area. With arc welders this is similar in a sense to the flux coating on a welding electrode. The need for shielding gas does limit a mig welder as to the portability of the machine and is not very useful if welding in a stiff wind as the gas gets blown away. There is now however a flux cored welding wire for mig use that removes the need for shielding gas.

Mig welders can be used on most any thickness of steel depending upon the power of the machine. They are ideal to learn how to weld with and excellent for welding thin steel as on automotive bodywork.

Tig Welding.

Tig welding is a specialised process that requires great skill by the operator. Ideal for sheet metal work where precise and pure welds are required.

While learning how to weld steel is quite an easy process, the basics of welding need to be learned from both a practical and a theoretical point to get things right from the beginning. Many hours can be wasted through trial and error welding where some simple tuition can get you welding very well in a short period of time.

Welding Aluminum Using GTAW Aka the Gas Tungsten Arc Process - Compared to Welding Steel

Welding aluminum is harder than welding steel. Why? Because everything that can go wrong on steel is magnified times 10  when you are Tig welding aluminum.

Cleanliness, machine settings, arc length, welding with a dirty  tungsten electrode, torch angle, filler rod angle, type of electrode, and size of electrode . You name it, When you weld aluminum, its just more important to get all these things right,

If the aluminum you are welding has been left outside, like a boat dock ladder, or aluminum boat propeller, it is most likely heavily oxidized. It needs to be cleaned or it will weld like Fido's butt.
The machine settings have to be right too. Alternating current is the name of the game for tig welding aluminum and the  high frequency switch  needs to be on continuous...otherwise the arc will stutter.
Amperage is usually controlled with the foot pedal and with steel, you dont have to continually adjust amperage. At least not much. But since aluminum is such a good heat conductor, your foot pedal amperage control will get a workout. (Some tig welders even use the foot pedal to pulse the amperage to overcome heat buildup and to get the stack of dimes look.)

Arc length is important on steel, but on aluminum it is even more critical, too long an arc length and the heat will not be pinpointed enough casing your rod to ball up and contaminate, too short an arc length and metal will seem to jump on your electrode causing you to cuss like a sailor.
With steel, sometimes you can get away with a slightly dirty electrode... no big deal. But on aluminum, a dirty tungsten takes all the fun out of welding.  The weld will be sooty and will prompt your buddies to make fun of you.
Too much torch angle will cause the heat to melt the tip of your filler rod and the  filler wire will blob into the puddle,. This happens on steel too, just not as bad.
Type of tungsten electrode matters a lot too, especially if you are welding with a newer inverter type tig welder.  Old timers used to insist on using pure tungsten for tig welding aluminum. With the new tig inverters, using pure tungsten to weld aluminum will make you ask for a refund on your welding machine.
And what about the size of your tungsten electrode? With steel, it is possible to use a 3/32" tungsten for almost everything except razor blades. With aluminum, you need to use the right size electrode for different thickness metal. You really need to keep some 1/16", 3/32", and 1/8" tungsten handy and be willing to change electrodes when the  job calls for it...and sometimes even in the middle of doing the same job.

Do you get the picture yet? Welding aluminum is just plain harder because everything matters more.
