Arc Welding Processes

This document provides information on different welding processes including SMAW, GTAW, GMAW, FCAW, and SAW. It lists the welding variables such as voltage, current, polarity, shielding gases, electrodes, wire feed speed, and welding positions for each process. It also discusses consumable vs. nonconsumable electrodes, with or without flux, and automatic vs. semiautomatic welding methods.
