Welding equipment
Induction welding
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
It is a welding process in which fusion is produced by heat obtained from resistance of the work to the flow of induced electric current, with or without the application of pressure.
Inert gas
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
A gas which does not normally combine chemically with the base metal or filler metal.
Gas tungsten-arc welding (GTAW)
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
It is an arc welding process wherein fusion is produced by heating with an electric arc between a tungsten electrode and the work while an inert gas forms around the weld area to prevent oxidation. ...
Carbon arc welding
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
It is a welding process in which the fusion is produced using carbon electrode or electrodes.
Bead weld
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
A type of weld composed of one or more string or weave beads deposited on an unbroken surface.
Base metal
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
It is the metal to be welded or cut. In alloys, it is the metal present in the largest proportion.
Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG)
Industrial machinery; Welding equipment
Also called GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding). In this type of welding, the arc is started with a tungsten electrode shielded by inert gas and filler rod is fed into the weld puddle separately.
