Welding refers to a wide variety of processes in which metals are joined by fusion. The metal at the interface of two or more parts is melted or fused by application of intense, localised heat. A ...

The machine is built and tested for harsh construction environments, designed with a small footprint for service trucks, and ...

“Introduction to Welding Processes” provides a comprehensive overview of the most commonly used welding processes, including oxyfuel welding, gas metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, ...

The fabrication of titanium demands attention to cleanliness. It is not uncommon for shops that handle several metals to isolate an area to be used especially for titanium. The area set aside for ...

Welding Handbook, Volume 3, reflects the dramatic changes brought into welding processes over the past decade due to the emergence of new welding techniques and advanced materials. Included are ...

Welding is often a hot and noisy process. It generally involves some fancy chemistry and proper knowledge to achieve good results. Whether you’re talking about arc, TIG, or MIG, these statements all ...

Industry data shows that facilities adopting multi-axis CNC welding systems report up to 30% higher throughput and significantly reduced defect rates compared to traditional welding methods. Michael ...

Thermoplastic composite (TPC) welding has been a key topic for CW since the March 2006 feature, “Thermoplastic composites gain leading edge on the A380”. That article described GKN Fokker’s (Hoogeveen ...

Unlike composites made with a thermoset matrix, thermoplastic composites (TPCs) require neither complex chemical reactions nor lengthy curing processes. Thermoplastic prepregs require no refrigeration ...

Ellsworth Community College officially added welding in the fall of 2023 and it was initially only available to area high school students. Since then, it has opened up to high ...
