A consumable cartridge frame for a liquid-cooled plasma arc torch is provided. The consumable cartridge frame includes an insulator body configured to be disposed between a torch head and a cartridge tip. The consumable cartridge also includes a first cooling channel, disposed in the body, configured to conduct a first fluid flow received from the torch head to contact a component of the cartridge tip connected to the cartridge frame. The consumable cartridge further includes a first return channel, disposed in the body, configured to conduct at least a portion of the first fluid flow from the component to the torch head. The first cooling channel and the first return channel are non-concentric in relation to a central longitudinal axis of the body.

A welding torch assembly includes a mounting plate. A welding torch is mounted to the mounting plate. The welding torch includes an adjustment track fixed to the mounting plate, an adjustment body slidable relative to the adjustment track, a torch body, an electrode holder having a longitudinal axis. An electrode includes an elongated body defining a longitudinal axis. A seating end portion includes a first truncated cone. A working end portion includes a second truncated cone. The elongated body is located between the seating portion and the working portion. A retaining nut secures the electrode in the electrode holder. The electrode retaining nut contacts the angled surface of the seating end portion. A shield gas cup is secured to the torch body that forms a welding arc to melt filler wire.

A processing head assembly is disclosed. In some examples, the processing head assembly comprises a fabrication energy source; a wire feedstock surrounded by a shield and one or more filler feedstocks surrounded by one or more nozzles. In some examples, the fabrication energy source includes the wire feedstock surrounded by the shield. A method of depositing material on a substrate using a processing head assembly for use with a fabrication energy source; a wire feedstock surrounded by a shield and one or more filler feedstocks surrounded by one or more nozzles is disclosed. In some examples, the method comprises projecting a fabrication energy beam from the fabrication energy source onto the substrate at a spot, projecting the wire feedstock surrounded by the shield onto the substrate at the spot and projecting the one or more filler feedstocks surrounded by the one or more nozzles onto the substrate close to the spot.

A welding electrode holder is provided. The welding electrode holder comprises a handle and electrode clamps extending nearly perpendicularly from the handle, thereby providing easy loading and unloading of electrodes, coupled with secure holding of the electrode during operation.

A torch for connection to an electric arc welding system having a wire feeder, a power source and a weld process controller for the power source. The torch being connected to the front end of a welding gun, which gun has a rear end with a first unique component of a connector. The welding system has a second component of the connector matching the first component. The gun has a communication channel extending from the torch to the first component for transmitting data to the welding system through the connector. The torch has a memory with an identification code outputted on the communication channel to the first component and the system has a decoder circuit connected to the second component and responsive to a selected identification code.

In the present disclosure, a housing (4) has a housing passageway (R1) housing a plurality of electrodes (10) linearly therewithin. An electrode withdrawal opening (R2) communicating with the housing passageway (R1) is formed on one end of the housing (4). A pressing unit (5) presses toward one end of the housing passageway (R1) the plurality of electrodes (10) arranged side by side and housed in the housing passageway (R1). A lever member (6) is swung to switch between a state where withdrawal of the electrode (10) from the electrode withdrawal opening (R2) is restrained and a state where the electrode withdrawal opening (R2) is exposed. A regulating coil spring (7) urges and swings the lever member (6) to one side.
