  1. sales@altparts.com Different Welding Methods and What They're Used For When you initially learn about welding, the amount of knowledge can be overwhelming. It may be hard to break into welding without studying the various skills. Some folks are slower to catch on. Not all welding procedures create consistent beads with minimum polishing. Metal weld? I think this deserves recognition. We collated information on some welding processes to shed light on the topic. Here Are Some of the Different Methods of Welding First, There's TIG, Or Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) Heliarc welding (TIG) uses inert tungsten gas. This type of welding may reuse the tungsten electrode forever. A rare technique that requires base metal and filler metal. Hand-adding filler metal is optional. TIG welding requires a gas tank. So, do it indoors or in a safe environment. TIG welding produces smooth, spatter-free welds. Due to these reasons, only professionals should weld. Flux-Cored Arc Welding follows (FCAW) It is MIG-style welding. MIG welders can FCAW. Like MIG welding, you feed your wire electrode and filler metal through your gun. Differences are evident. FCAW uses flux-cored wire as a shield. We don't need to buy gasoline. FCAW involves tremendous heat; therefore, it's suitable for thicker metals. It's used to fix industrial machines. This method is efficient. No gas means it's inexpensive. Before mirror-polishing a weld, the slag is removed. Stick-Shielded-Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Follows the Next This 1930s welding technology is still improving. Stick welding is affordable and easy to use. Spattering causes sloppy welds. Clean-up is required. Stick filler metal. An electrode becomes filler metal when arced with the base metal. The heated flux on the stick prevents oxidation. Cooling metal condenses gas to form slag. www.altparts.com

  2. sales@altparts.com This method works in rain and wind because it doesn't utilize gas. It fixes rusty, painted, and unclean machines. Thin metals are difficult to weld using interchangeable electrodes. Stick welding is tricky. It Is Followed by MIG Welding (GMAW) MIG welding is beginner-friendly and effective. Metal inert gas welding, or MIG, is a prevalent procedure (GMAW). Gas is discharged around the wand to protect filler metal. It's not recommended outside. This method welds thin and thick metals. An unreeled coil of wire represents the filler metal. An arc melts the wire from its tip to the base metal. The wand's wire flow is changed. MIG welding makes smooth, tight welds when done well. Laser Beam Welding Follows This approach works for metals and thermoplastics. As the name suggests, laser welding uses the laser as the weld's heat source. Carbon steel, stainless steel, HSLA steel, titanium, and aluminum are suitable. Its suitability for robotic automation has led to its use in automobile manufacturing. Welding With an Electron Beam Comes Next The kinetic energy of an electron beam traveling at high speed is turned into heat, melting the two pieces of material together. Machine welding, often performed in a vacuum, is a cutting-edge technique. Applications of Plasma-Arc Technology in Welding PAW is more accurate than GTAW due to its lower arc size and the use of Hypertherm plasma cutter parts. It employs a high-temperature torch. The wand makes plasma by squeezing gas. Plasma conducts electricity after ionization. Since an arc forms due to the Hypertherm plasma cutter parts, even basic metals can melt. Plasma arc welding, like TIG welding, doesn't require filler metal. These delicate and deep welds are strong and attractive. High-speed welding is conceivable. The use of Hypertherm Powermax 45 consumables also makes the process flawless. At The End, Electroslag This cutting-edge technology welds metal plate edges. Weld is put between plate edges, not on the joint's outside. Copper electrode wire is fed through a disposable metal guide tube to make filler metal. The weld is initiated at the seam's base and worked up, gradually replacing it. It is automated. www.altparts.com
