Proportional Gas Mixing for Consistent, High-Quality Welds
Knowing how to control shielding gas mixtures is critical for weld quality, penetration, and cost control. Proportional gas mixers allow you to accurately blend gases on demand, delivering consistent shielding gas for specialized welding applications.
We offer precision proportional gas mixers designed for TIG/GTAW, MIG/GMAW, and plasma arc welding. These mixers make it easy to dial in the correct gas blend for each job, helping improve weld appearance, control penetration, and reduce shielding gas costs.
Lower costs compared to pre-mixed gas cylinders
Different welding applications often require different gas blends. Using a proportional gas mixer allows on-site mixing of individual gases, eliminating the need to stock and handle expensive pre-mixed cylinders. This reduces inventory complexity while giving you full control over gas composition.
Improve quality and reduce setup time
With a proportional gas mixer, there is no need to swap cylinders, change regulators, or reconfigure flowmeters when switching between gas blends. Operators simply adjust the mixer dial to the desired ratio—no calculations required. This saves setup time and reduces the chance of error.
Eliminate gas separation issues
Pre-mixed gas cylinders can experience gas separation (stratification) inside the bottle. Proportional gas mixers blend gases as they flow, ensuring a consistent mixture every time shielding gas is delivered to the weld.
Simple operation for single or multi-station systems
Gas mixers are suitable for single welding stations or centralized manifold systems supplying multiple welders. They are also valuable training tools, allowing operators and welding engineers to clearly see how different gas blends affect arc behavior, penetration, and overall weld quality.
