In today’s world, technology has become an integral part of our lives, and the automotive industry is no exception. With the advancement in technology, vehicles have become more complex than ever before. A malfunctioning component can cause serious problems that may lead to accidents or costly repairs if not addressed promptly. This is where an…
Le soudage est une technique essentielle dans la transformation de métal, permettant l’assemblage de pièces qui seraient autrement impossibles à créer. Le soudage consiste à chauffer les métaux afin de les fusionner et donc de créer une jointure permanente entre eux. Ce processus implique plusieurs éléments tels que la source de chaleur (arc électrique, flamme,…
Le soudage TIG, également connu sous le nom de soudage à l’arc sous gaz inerte, est une méthode de soudage qui utilise un arc électrique pour fondre les métaux à souder. Cette technique de soudage est largement utilisée dans les industries de l’aérospatiale, de l’automobile et de la fabrication de produits électroniques en raison de…
Preventing and mitigating weld spatter (splatter) is essential for ensuring a successful welding process. Not only can weld spatter impact the appearance of the finished product, but it can also create safety hazards and result in added cleanup time. Weld spatter can damage surrounding equipment, contaminate surfaces, and even pose a risk of injury to…
Stick welding or Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) to give its proper name is a welding method that doesn’t require a shielding gas. Welding without gas using SMAW is a technique that involves using a flux-coated electrode to shield the weld pool from atmospheric gases, instead of using an external shielding gas. This technique is commonly…
Flux-Core and MIG welding are two of the most commonly used welding techniques. Flux-Core welding uses a continuously-fed consumable electrode, which is shielded by a flux compound to protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination. MIG welding, on the other hand, uses a continuously-fed consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas to protect the weld…
Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is a popular process requiring a lot of skill and expertise. It is commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. One often underused aspect of TIG welding is the use of a gas lens, which can play a crucial role in enhancing the…
You may not always be lucky enough to have a workpiece that’s free of rust and dirt. The problem is that metals possess great strength but also rust once they come into contact with water/moisture. Thus, dealing with rusty materials is one of the most common problems you’ll face as a welder. The way you…
It is possible to perform TIG welding without gas, although it require a certain amount of skill and even then can be problem. This gasless method that is used is usually referred to as Flux-cored TIG welding. In this article, we will focus on how you can TIG weld without using gas, discussing the process…
Whether you’re a homeowner trying to repair your roof or a professional steelworker trying to get your job done there are going to be times when you might need to weld without using gas. There are various different ways of welding with the use if a shielding gas and each has its own drawbacks. Generally…
