Welder World has just released a new section of their website that has all of the most common Types of Welding, Welders, and the various types of Welding. This is part of a new community website that is all about the Welding Types and definitions. Members and non-members can visit this Welding Types page on the Welder World website for free at: http://www.welderworld.com/
Here is an excerpt from the new Welding Types information webpage:
“Oxy-propane -- this type of welding is used when you want to solder, braze or heat something. This is a cheaper form of both of the types of welding that was first listed.
Arc welding
This type of welding creates the heat through the use of an electric arc. The types of welding that are done through this type of welding include:
Basic AC & DC arc welders -- when you are looking for a way to weld either heavy gauge steel or cast iron this is the type of welding to use. It uses rods that you guide along the place to be weld and these are made of flux coated steel or other materials.
MIG (Metal Inert Gas) -- this is a very quick way of welding and some say it is easier to do than regular arch welding. It is done through the use of a DC arc and it uses filler metal that is used with a spool of thin wire. You use inert gas instead of flux. This is usually used with steal bodywork and is a good choice when you need to weld sheet metal.”
