Types of Welding Joints Types of Welding Joints Welds Based on Configuration Slot weld Joint between two overlapping components made by depositing a fillet weld around the periphery of a hole in one component so as to join it to the surface of the other component exposed through the hole. Plug weld Weld made […]
Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding is an arc welding process that uses a continuous solid wire electrode heated and fed into the weld pool from a welding gun. The two base materials are melted together forming a joint.
Types Of Welds Welding is a fabrication process whereby two or more parts are fused together by means of heat, pressure or both forming a join as the parts cool. Welding is usually used on metals and thermoplastics but can also be used on wood. The completed welded joint may be referred to as a weldment. Some materials require […]
Flux-Core Arc Welding (FCAW) FCAW Flux cored arc welding (FCAW), also know as dual shield welding, is a semi-automatic arc welding process that is similar to metal active gas (MAG) welding. FCAW uses a continuous wire fed electrode, a constant-voltage welding power supply, and similar equipment to MAG welding. The process was first developed in the 1950s […]
Tungsten Inert Gas Welding Tungsten Inert Gas (GTAW or TIG) Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) is an arc welding process that produces the weld with a non-consumable tungsten electrode. Using an inert gas shield instead of a slag to protect the weld-pool, the process was a highly […]
Manual Metal Arc Welding mmaw, smaw or stick welding Manual metal arc welding (MMA or MMAW,SMAW, STICK- WELDING), also known as shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), flux shielded arc welding or stick welding, is a process where the arc is struck between an electrode flux coated metal rod and the work piece. Both the rod […]
