Itanura rya arc ryitwa nanone itanura ryamashanyarazi arc cyangwa itanura ryamashanyarazi.Impera imwe ya electrode yashyizwe mubikoresho, ikora arc murwego rwibikoresho no gushyushya ibikoresho nukurwanya kwayo.Bikunze gukoreshwa mu gushonga ibishishwa, gushonga nikel matte, umuringa wa matte, no gutanga kariside ya calcium.Ikoreshwa cyane cyane mukugabanya amabuye yo gushonga, kugabanya imyuka ya karubone no gushonga hamwe nibindi bikoresho fatizo.Ikora cyane cyane ferroalloys nka ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, ferrotungsten na silicon-manganese alloy, ibyo bikaba aribikoresho byingenzi byinganda zinganda munganda zibyuma nibikoresho bya chimique nka calcium karbide.Ibikorwa byayo ni ugukoresha karubone cyangwa magnesia ibikoresho byo kwangirika nk'itanura, kandi ugakoresha kwikorera amashanyarazi ya grafite.Electrode yinjizwa mumashanyarazi yo gukora arc yarohamye, ikoresheje ingufu numuyoboro wa arc kugirango ushongeshe ibyuma binyuze mumbaraga zatewe numuriro no kurwanya kwishyurwa, kugaburira bikurikiranye, gukubita rimwe na rimwe icyuma, kandi ugakomeza gukora amashanyarazi yinganda itanura.Muri icyo gihe, itanura rya calcium karbide hamwe n’itanura rya fosifore yumuhondo naryo rishobora kwitirirwa itanura rya arc ryarohamye kubera uburyo bumwe bwo gukoresha.
