WELDING

WELDING

Welding is the process of joining two or more metal parts together. There are several types of fabricated welding, each with its unique capabilities and applications. Whether you're looking to repair equipment, build a structure, or create custom metalwork, welding can provide a strong, durable, and efficient solution.


CAPABILITIES

Mig Welding

Mig welding is a type of welding that uses a wire electrode fed through a welding gun and an inert gas to shield the weld from contamination. It is commonly used in industrial settings and is known for its speed and ease of use. It is capable of welding a wide range of metal thicknesses, from thin sheet metal to heavy plate, and is suitable for fabrication and production welding.


Tig Welding

Tig welding is a type of welding that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. It is known for precise, high-quality finishing welds. TIG welding works well with aluminum, steel and stainless steel. Additionally, it works for welding thin materials, which is not possible with other welding methods. TIG welding is a versatile process that works for both fabrication and repair work and for creating precise and intricate designs. It is also suitable for welding in hard-to-reach or tight spaces.


Spot Welding

Spot welding, also known as resistance spot welding, uses heat generated from resistance to the electric current passing through the workpieces to fuse them. Spot welding works well with a wide range of metal thicknesses. It is also a fast and efficient welding method, making it ideal for high-volume production. It is also cost-effective for welding large metal areas as it uses less energy than other welding methods.


BENEFITS OF SERVICE

  • Welded joints are often stronger than mechanical fasteners, making them suitable for high-stress applications.

  • Welding is a relatively fast method of joining metal parts, making it ideal for high-volume production work.

  • There are multiple metals for welding, including steel, aluminum, and titanium.

  • Some welding methods, such as TIG welding, allow for precise control over the weld, making them suitable for intricate and detailed work.

  • Welding can be a cost-effective method of joining metal parts, particularly in large-scale production.

  • Welded joints are typically more durable than ones made with mechanical fasteners, as they are not subject to looseness or corrosion.

  • Welding eliminates the need for additional fasteners, saving time and costs in manufacturing.
