Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Also called Metal Inert Gas Welding (MIG), this welding process is the most popular and most accessible welding process to master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wire electrode in this welding procedure also functions as the filler metal to produce the weld, and as it melts, it is continuously fed into the welding gun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shielding gas, such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, helium, or argon, is also used in MIG. It is necessary for this gas to pass through the welding gun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It aids in shielding the metal molten pool, or weld pool, from outside impurities that can compromise the weld&#8217;s quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, the GMAW is often used for welding stainless steel, copper, nickel, carbon steel, and aluminum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Gas_Tungsten_Arc_Welding_GTAWTIG_Welding\"><\/span>2. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW\/TIG Welding)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The GTAW is called the most versatile welding technique. As its name implies, this type of welding process uses a tungsten electrode that gives current to the welding arc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gas shielding is used in Gas Tungsten Arc Welding, similar to GMAW. It&#8217;s frequently used to weld magnesium and aluminum. Stainless steel, copper, copper alloys, and nickel alloys may all be welded with TIG welding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TIG welding, or gas tungsten arc welding, creates clean, accurate welds. Numerous sectors, including electronics, aircraft, automotive, maintenance, and even the arts, have found application for this welding procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/what-is-welding-gauge-what-are-its-types-and-functions\/\">What is Welding Gauge?

Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW or Stick Welding)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The SMAW or usually called as stick welding is one of the earliest and most common welding techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shielded metal arc welding utilizes a disposable electrode (stick) that is shielded when doing this kind of welding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This stick melts in the arc and becomes the filler metal to join the two metal parts. As the stick melts, it also emits a gas that protects the area to be welded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is most commonly used to join steel, iron, nickel and, though rarely, aluminum. It is also used in construction, underwater pipelines and industrial fabrication<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Flux_Cored_Arc_Welding_FCAW\"><\/span>4. Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although similar to the GMAW technique, the flux-cored arc welding can be performed without any shielding gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The electrode material also makes a difference as a flux-cored electrode is used in FCAW as a filler material for the weld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A flux is a mix of silicate and carbonate material, and it will floats to the top due to its lower density than the welded material.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FCAW is usually used in shipbuilding, heavy equipment repair and also bridge construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Friction_Welding\"><\/span>5. Friction Welding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Friction welding is a welding method that involves friction between two metal materials or workpieces to further be conjoined. This friction produces enough heat to melt the metal and form a connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method is often used for welding non-ferrous metals, such as aluminum and copper. Friction welding has several advantages, including a fast process, good heat control, and high connection quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Laser_Welding\"><\/span>6. Laser Welding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Laser beam welding uses highly focused laser beams to melt and connect metals. The highly concentrated energy of this laser welding process enables very thin and accurate metal welding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Common applications of laser welding include the automotive, electronics, and aviation industries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Laser welding benefits include high speed, high precision, and the ability to weld metals that are difficult to connect with other welding methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Resistance_Welding\"><\/span>7. Resistance Welding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance welding is a method in which two metals are combined by pressing and continuing a high electric current.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat is generated by an electric resistance as the current passes through the metal, causing the metal to melt and merge both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Examples of resistance welding involve point welding, seam welding and projection welding. The advantages of resistant welding include high speed, consistency, as well as the ability to combine different metals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Also Read: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/how-to-choose-a-welding-machine\/\">How to Choose a Welding Machine?<\/a>&#8220;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>There you go!
