Understand the core principles, types, and advantages of welding in mechanical engineering.
Welding is a process of joining two or more similar or dissimilar materials, with or without the application of heat, pressure, electricity or friction.
In fabrication industries, we majorly use 4 main welding processes which are as follows:
Also known as TIG welding, it uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode and is ideal for precise, high-quality welds on thin materials.
Commonly called MIG welding, it uses a continuously fed wire and shielding gas. It's fast and suitable for many industrial applications.
A semi-automatic process similar to MIG but uses a flux-filled wire. Effective in outdoor conditions and thicker materials.
Also known as stick welding, it is portable and simple. Widely used for construction and repair jobs in rough environments.
