What is Pulse Welding for MIG and TIG

Pulse welding is a process that is used in Gas Metal Arc Welding (MIG) and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG). The pulse process works by quickly varying the current between a high and a low amperage when welding. These two amperages are known as the peak and background amperages. A welding machine with pulse welding capability will automatically vary the current at a
