welding area
1Welding — is a fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. This is often done by melting the workpieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the weld puddle ) that cools to… …
2welding — 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 …
3Welding defect — A welding defect is any flaw that compromises the usefulness of the finished weldment. According to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) welding defect causes are broken down into the following percentages: 41% poor process… …
4Gas tungsten arc welding — TIG welding of a bronze sculpture Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), also known as tungsten inert gas (TIG …
5Gas metal arc welding — RMD redirects here. RMD may also refer to IRA Required Minimum Distributions. Gas metal arc welding …
6Shielded metal arc welding — (SMAW), also known as manual metal arc (MMA) welding, flux shielded arc welding …
7Arc welding — uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between an electrode and the base material to melt the metals at the welding point. They can use either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current, and consumable or non consumable electrodes.… …
8Oxy-fuel welding and cutting — Oxyacetylene redirects here. For the song, see Cubanate. Side of metal, cut by oxygen propane cutting torch …
9Plastic welding — is the process of welding plastic parts together. There are several techniques:Hot gas weldingThis is a plastic welding technique which is analogous to gas welding of metals, though the specific techniques are different. A specially designed heat …
10Electrogas welding — (EGW) is a continuous vertical position arc welding process developed in 1961, in which an arc is struck between a consumable electrode and the workpiece. A shielding gas is sometimes used, but pressure is not applied. A major difference between… …
