Knowledge of Welding Quality

Various types of welding processes

There are various types of welding processes and each has its own advantages and disadvantages, including:
  1. Arc welding is a technique that uses the power supply and create an electric arc between the electrode and the base material.
  2. Forge welding is a process that joins metals by heating them to high temperatures.
  3. Tig tungsten electrode to produce weld and it is another name for gas tungsten arc welding of metals and used for thin sections of stainless steel and non ferrous metals.
  4. Mig welding is automated arc welding process for its versatility and speed and the welding of aluminum and non ferrous materials.
  5. Spot welding is a process in which metal surfaces are joined with the heat obtained from resistance of current flow.
  6. Gas welding is also referred to as oxy-fuel welding and gas used for welding and cutting metals.
  7. Stick or shielded metal arc welding is a process that uses manual arc consumable electrode.
  8. Arc plasma using a plasma gas and has a narrow penetration with a greater concentration of energy.
