Introduction Welding is a fabrication process that uses high temperature to melt and fuse two pieces of metal together. The process of welding does not merely bond the two pieces together but through the use of excessive heat and in some cases other metals or gases are added which makes the metallic structure of the two pieces of material to join together. Welding can even be done underwater. Welding can be applied in different kinds of industries such as; building and construction, oil and gas, …

One of the most important and simplest ways to create strong welds is to properly maintain your welding equipment.

There is an existing but concealed notion that technicians who have ever experienced the use of plasma arc cutting machines rarely want to return to oxyacetylene cutting or mechanical cutting processes such as saws, cutoff wheels, shears, and snips. This notion poses to be correct for some reasons being that the latter can induce fatigue and stress, increase work time and make work overwhelming; but on the other hand Plasma cutting can improve productivity and lower cutting costs. It does not …

HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT STICK ELECTRODE FOR WELDING  Stick welding is a manual arc welding process. It requires a consumable electrode that is coated in flux to lay the weld, and an electric current is used to create an electric arc between the electrode and the metals that are being welded together. The electric current may be either an alternating current or a direct current from a welding power supply. Before choosing an electrode to weld with you need to unde …

TYPES OF WELDING GASES AND THEIR PURPOSE  Welding is the process of joining two pieces of materials such as thermoplastics or metal using high levels of heat. The melted parts are then left to cool in order to form a joint. Apart from electricity, there are gases which are often used in the welding process. Gases are often used with the aim of shielding the area which needs to be welded.Gas welding involves the use of a gas-fed flame torch to heat the metal work piece a …
