pre-flashing phase Explanation: The topic here is flash-butt welding, in which there are four phases. "The workpieces are positioned end-to-end. As a general rule, the flash butt welding process is sub-divided into pre-flashing, pre-heating, flashing and upsetting. Pre-flashing is used to handle problems when the two surfaces to be joined are not parallel. Pre-heating is carried out under low welding pressure. When the welding joint has been heated to a certain temperature, flashing starts and the surface material is burned off, resulting in an even and clean joint surface. The flash consists of molten and oxidized material. After flashing, upsetting starts and presses the two surfaces together with high force to produce a good joint." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2019-10-12 05:42:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Alternatively termed 'plane flashing' here: 1. plane flashing 2. pre-heating 3.
