The primary orifice is positioned between the inlet and the outlet and in fluid communication with the passage such that the primary orifice permits fluid to enter the passage. The insert is positioned between the inlet and the outlet, the insert configured to enclose at least a portion of the passage.

Systems, methods, and apparatus to preheat welding wire are disclosed. An example welding assembly for a welding torch includes: a first contact tip configured to conduct welding current to a consumable electrode; a second contact tip configured to conduct preheating current to the consumable electrode; and a cooling body configured to transfer heat from at least the first contact tip to coolant and to conduct the welding current.

Double magnetic coupling for two welding heads that work parallel and independent at the front and at the back, (N) and (S), in paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials.

In a method for defining welding parameters for a welding process on a workpiece, a welding torch fastened to a robot is guided over the workpiece along a predetermined welding path and predetermined welding parameters for processing the workpiece are set as a function of the position along the welding path. A welding device carries out a welding process. For the more exact definition of the welding parameters, before the welding process is carried out, at least one parameter representing the cooling is recorded as a function of the position along the welding path, and the at least one parameter representing the cooling along the welding path is considered for the welding process when defining optimized welding parameters as a function of the position along the welding path.
