What is welding?

Welding – is a process that results in joining of metals through


melting together by application of heat.
- fusion or melting of edges.

* How about brazing or soldering ?

Brazing – is a joining process that produces coalescences


of mat’ls by heating them in the presence of
filler metal having a melting point above 840 ºF
and below the melting point of the base metal.

Soldering – heating the filler metal (lead) at 350 ºF .


WELDING PROCESSES

SMAW – Shielded Metal Arc


Welding
GTAW – Gas Tungsten Metal Arc
Welding
GMAW – Gas Metal Arc Welding
FCAW – Flux- Cored Arc Welding
SAW - Submerged Arc Welding
ESW – Electroslag Welding
PAW – Plasma Arc Welding
SW – Stud Welding
What is arc welding ?

Electric Arc – is a spark produced in


an electric circuit when electric
current stops.
Arc length – distance between the
electrode and base metal.
Current – measured in ampere.
Voltage – measured in volts
Polarity – positive (+)/ negative (-)
Guide for Selecting a Welding
Machine
150-200 ampere – For light to medium duty welding.
Excellent for all fabrication purposes and rugged enough for
continuous operation on light or medium production work.

250-300 ampere – For average welding requirements. Used


in plants for production, maintenance, repair, toolroom
work, and all general shop welding.

400-600 ampere – For large and heavy duty welding.


Especially adaptable for structural work, fabricating heavy
machine parts, pipe and tank welding.
SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDING
Power Supply – for effective shielded
metal-arc welding constant-current type
of machine is required. This welding
machine is characterized by a dropping
volt-ampere curve in which a relatively
constant supply of current is produced
with only a limited change in voltage load.

Equipment – the basic units of any


shielded metal arc-welding system consist
of power supply, an electrode holder, a
ground clamp, and a protective shield.
