electrical welding machine
1Welding power supply — A welding power supply is a device that provides an electric current to perform welding. Welding usually requires high current (over 80 amperes) and it can need above 12,000 amps in spot welding. Low current can also be used; welding two razor… …
2Electrical discharge machining — An electrical discharge machine Electric discharge machining (EDM), sometimes colloquially also referred to as spark machining, spark eroding, burning, die sinking or wire erosion,[1] is a manufacturing process whereby a desired shape is obtained …
3machine tool — machine tooled, adj. a power operated machine, as a lathe, used for general cutting and shaping of metal and other substances. [1860 65] * * * Stationary, power driven machine used to cut, shape, or form materials such as metal and wood. Machine… …
4welding — Technique for joining metallic parts, usually through the application of heat. Discovered in the 1st millennium AD during attempts to manipulate iron into useful shapes, the technique produced a strong, tough blade. Welding traditionally involved …
5Machine taper — A machine taper is a system for securing cutting bits and other accessories to a machine tool s spindle. Contents 1 Explanation 2 Use 3 Types 3.1 Morse 3.1.1 …
6Shielded metal arc welding — (SMAW), also known as manual metal arc (MMA) welding, flux shielded arc welding …
7Percussion welding — (PEW) is a type of resistance welding that blends dissimilar metals together. Percussion welding creates a high temperature arc that is formed from a short quick electrical discharge. Immediately following the electrical discharge, pressure is… …
8Ultrasonic welding — is an industrial whereby high frequency ultrasonic acoustic vibrations are locally applied to workpieces being held together under pressure to create a solid state weld. It is commonly used for plastics, and especially for joining dissimilar… …
9Spot welding — is a type of resistance welding used to weld various sheet metal products. Typically the sheets are in the 0.5 3.0 mm thickness range. The process uses two shaped copper alloy electrodes to concentrate welding current into a small spot and to… …
10Robot welding — in high production applications, such as the automotive industry. Robot welding is a relatively new application of robotics, even though robots were first introduced into US industry during the 1960s. The use of robots in welding did not take off …
