ABSTRACT:
A MIG and Flux Core wire feed and containment system for filler wire distribution for both manual and robotic underwater and terrestrial welding applications has a sensor feedback pressure sensor system that detects deflective and deformative pressures acting on the filler wire by surrounding environmental objects which the operator may not be aware of while setting up the task and which prevents the filler wire from being bent if the welding torch is inadvertently pressed against solid objects in robotic applications, thereby eliminating the need to manually straighten the wire, and enabling the capability of providing a filler wire distribution assembly at great water depths or at locations distant from the welding controls and in close proximity to the torch head.
