Plasma Arc Welding (PAW)

Plasma Arc Welding (PAW) is an arc welding process; an entire plasma arc is produced and directed toward the weld area. The arc is stable and reaches temperatures as high as 33,000°C. A plasma is a scorching ionized gas composed of nearly the same number of electrons …

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), also known as TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding , the filler metal is supplied from a filler wire as shown in the figure below. The tungsten electrode is not used during this welding operation; a constant and stable arc gap is maintaine…

Flux-cored Arc Welding (FCAW)

The flux-cored arc welding process (FCAW) shown in the image below is similar to Gas Metal-arc Welding , except that the electrode is tubular in shape and filled with flux. Cored electrodes produce a more stable arc, improve weld contour, and improve the mechanical pr…

Machine Tools: Elements and Parts

A machine tool is defined as one that can remove metal from a workpiece while holding the cutting tools to generate the requisite job of a given size, configuration, and finish. It is different from a machine, which essentially converts the source of power from one fo…

Submerged-arc Welding (SAW)

In Submerged-arc Welding (SAW ), the welding arc is shielded by a granular flux of lime, silica, manganese oxide, calcium fluoride, and other compounds. Gravity flow through a nozzle feeds The flux into the weld zone from a hopper. The thick layer of flux completely co…

Shielded Metal-arc Welding (SMAW)

Shielded Metal-arc Welding (SMAW) is the simplest and is used for many joining processes. More than 50% of industrial and maintenance welding is currently performed by this process. In this welding operation, an electric arc is generated by touching the tip of a coate…
