The History of Welding and its Processes Students will be able to know and understand the history of welding and what welding is. This will be accomplished by researching 3 welding processes.
History of Metalworking • Welding began more than 3000 years ago • Hot and cold metals hammered by forge weld • Bronze developed between 3000 and 2000 B.C. • Iron became known to Europe about 1000 B.C. • Several thousand years after copper • Replaced bronze as metal
Early Developments in Welding • Edmund Davy discovered acetylene at the beginning of nineteenth century • Sir Humphrey Davy discovered the electric arc in 1801
Later Developments • First commercial oxyacetylene welding torch at turn of the century • Electric arc welding method used in US until about 1920 • Technology of welding progressed slowly until World War I • Research on coated electrodes through 1920s resulted in electrode coatings and improved core wire
What is Welding? • Welding is joining two pieces of metal by: • Heating to temperature high enough to cause softening or melting • With or without application of pressure and filler metal
Review • Write this on the left side of your notes: • Who found the electric arc? • What is welding?
Different Welding Processes • Forge Welding • Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Arc • Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Oxyfuel • Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) MIG • Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) TIG • Plasma Arc Welding • Submerged Arc Welding (underwater) • Resistance Welding • Spot Welding and Seam Welding • Ultrasonic Welding • Explosion Welding
Stick and X-Ray Welding • Stick welding process • Advanced rapidly due to electrode coatings and improved core wire • Now called shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) • X-ray development • Possible to examine internal soundness of welded joints
Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) Process • An aluminum weld made using the TIG process. • The welding of aluminum is no longer a problem and can be done with the same ease as that of steel.
GMAW (gas) Process • Concentrates high heat at a focal point • Produces • Small heat-affected zone • Narrow bead width • Deep penetration • Faster weldingspeed • Now used in all industries • Responsible for over 70 percent of welds being performed today.
Resistance Welding • Includes spot welding, seam welding, and other similar processes performed on machines • Operators usually taught on job • Semiskilled workers do not need specific hands-on-welding skills https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOAdEIQKZDs
Assignment • You will research 3 different welding processes of your choice (left side of your INB) • You need to find out the following information for each welding process….. • What is the name of your process? • When it was invented or started? • Where is this process most common? • How is your process used/done? • What type of jobs can you receive knowing this weld process?
