oPetrol Developed Oxy-Gasoline Welding Torch, Will Acetylene Welding Torch Become a History?

After cutting torch, oxy-gasoline welding torch has been developed by a company with a brand name oPetrol. Will oxy-gasoline torches terminate the history of acetylene welding torch?

Beijing, China, March 18, 2006 --(PR.com)-- oPetrol, a Chinese manufacturer, has developed oxy-gasoline welding torch after their cutting torches and blowing torches, a revolutionary product that gives the hope to terminate the role of acetylene in flame process.

"oPetrol oxy-gasoline cutting torch system works extraordinarily. Compared to cutting torches, welding torches are much more difficult to develop. That is because of the strong oxidizing nature of oxy-gasoline flame," aid Flora Miao, the president of oPetrol.

“The problem is, without welding torch, the product line is not complete and in many occasions users will have to keep the heavy and hazardous acetylene cylinder merely for welding usage. ” (Flora Miao.)

oPetrol's present version of welding torch is ideal for brazing and joining of non-ferrous metals. It may braze weld steel too. But it can not do steel fusion welding as an acetylene torch. They are trying to make the oxy-gasoline welding torch catch up with acetylene torch in its steel welding features. They are sure it is possible. Oxy-acetylene welding has been practiced for over a century. The mixture of oxygen and acetylene is used as it has been the only gas combination with enough heat to weld steel.

Despite the fact that in most industrial applications oxy-acetylene welding has given place to electrical welding, acetylene is still preferred by users in the field of maintenance, reparation and some other applications. Acetylene has been used in steel welding and other heat treat process for a century. Acetylene is very hazardous and energy costly. It is also notorious for its pollution.

Attempts to find a better fuel to replace acetylene have been made in many countries for nearly a century. oPetrol has successfully developed cutting torches and blowing torch. It also has torches for CNC cutting machines and will develop torches for diversified applications. The development of oxy-gasoline welding torch is aiming at totally substituting gasoline for acetylene in its most popular cutting and welding applications.
