Introduction to Welding

There are many kind of welding processes available now days. Letter designation is commonly being assigned on each process for identification on drawings, tables, reference, etc. it is also include processes such as adhesive bonding, thermal spraying, and thermal cutting.

To distinguishes between welding processes grouped under “Brazing” and “Soldering” from “Arc Welding”, “Gas Welding”, “Resistance Welding”, “Solid State Welding”, and “Other Processes” is the Capillary attraction. Read the rest of this entry »

Welcome to Introduction to Welding. Here we will discuss and share anything about welding technology, start from basic welding to advance Welding.

Welding is widely used by metalworkers in the fabrication, maintenance, repair of parts and structures. While there are many methods for joining metals, this is the one of the most convenient and rapid methods available.

What is Welding? It is a process or an operation for joining two or more parts, usually metals, by means of heat or pressure or both to its melting temperature, in such a way that there is continuity in the nature of the metal between the parts. So it can involve filler material or not.

For joining the materials or welding, for sure it will need energy source. There are many types of energy sources that can be use for welding such as gas flame, electric arc, laser, electron beam and friction.

Welding process has been developed for many different of atmosphere such as open air, underwater and space. All atmosphere where welding to be done will cause hazard such as burns, electric shock, eyes damage, fume, ultraviolet. And also the knowledge & technology developed during time to time rapidly.

Back to the first paragraph, since this blog is for sharing and posting any kind related to introduction to welding from basic welding to advance, hence we invite you for sharing your knowledge and very please if any expert may spare the time to post in this blog regularly for sharing knowledge.
