There are three arc welding processes that provide nearly miraculous seeming results. Wire Fed Flux Core Arc Welding (FCAW) and Metal Inert Gas (MIG), or Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), produce completed welds so swiftly that it seems almost magical. Tungsten Inert Gas Welding (TIG), also known as Gas Tungsten…
Manual welding diagnostics and repair is straightforward for manual welding machines. It is the sort of thing that is often done entirely on the shop floor even for relatively complex setups like Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) machines. The same is not true of sophisticated orbital welding machines. These are…
Equipment issues that arise in the middle of welding are infuriating. Welders in every type of welding process know the blank moment of surprise that comes along with a stuck rod, a wire that curls off instead of striking, or a tungsten electrode ruined by inexplicably crashing into the weld….
