Welding
GMAW
Gas Metal Arc Welding
Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), also known as metal inert gas welding, is welding process that uses a continuously fed wire electrode and a shielding gas to protect weld from contamination. It is commonly used in the automotive and manufacturing industries due to its versatility and speed.
GTAW
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding
Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), also known as tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is a welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by an inert shielding gas, typically argon. GTAW is commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys.
SMAW
Shielded Metal Arc Welding
Shielded metal arc welding is a welding process that uses a consumable electrode coated in flux to lay the weld. The electrode is shielded from the atmosphere by the flux coating, which melts and forms a protective gas shield as it decomposes. SMAW is a versatile and widely used welding process, suitable for welding a variety of metals and thicknesses.
FCAW
Flux Cored Arc Welding
Flux cored arc welding (FCAW) is welding process that uses a continuously fed electrode tube with a flux core. The flux core contains various materials that provide shielding from the atmosphere, which helps to prevent weld defects. FCAW is commonly used in construction, shipbuilding, and other heavy fabrication applications.
Brazing
Brazing is a process used to join two or more metal pieces by melting a filler metal that has a lower melting point than the metals being joined, allowing the filler to flow into the joint.
Spot Welding
Spot welding, or resistance spot welding, is a type of resistance welding technique. It is mainly utilized to join two or more sheets by exerting pressure and applying heat generated from an electric current to welding area.
