Weld Delux uses TIG (GTAW) and MIG (GMAW) welding techniques

Dec. 13, 2010 - PRLog -- Peterhead, Aberdeenshire December 13, 2010 -Everyone of us have a thought about welding as a very dangerous trade, which is also not much easy to learn. Safety should be one’s number one priority no matter which welding process he is using. Anyhow, with certain welding techniques like TIG (GTAW) and MIG (GMAW), safety is assured. Read further as Mr. Andrew Cooper of Weld Delux describes about both the processes in detail.

“GTAW is nothing but Gas tungsten arc welding process that uses non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. It is also known as TIG (tungsten inert gas). The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by a shielding gas, which is usually argon gas. GTAW welding techniques are commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, magnesium and copper alloys. It is one of the consumable electrode techniques where the electrode and deposit are usually a filler wire. In addition to stainless steel welding and aluminum welding, Weld Delux uses TIG ( http://www.weld-delux.co.uk ) (GTAW) welding techniques also for carbon and mild steel welding.”

“GMAW is yet another important welding technique that is similar to GTAW and is being used by Weld Delux. GMAW stands for Gas metal arc welding and is also referred to as MIG (metal inert gas). It is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun. A DC (direct or constant) voltage and DC current is commonly used to heat the wire to form an arc,” says Mr. Andrew Cooper

At Weld Delux ( http://www.weld-delux.co.uk ), we also use FCAW and MMA welding methods in addition to GMAW and GTAW techniques. Manual metal arc (MMA) or shielded metal arc welding (SMAC) is a manual arc welding process that uses a consumable electrode coated in flux to lay the weld. FCAW or FCA is nothing but the flux-cored arc welding process that is getting increasingly popular due to its high welding speed and portability. This technique requires a continuously-fed consumable tubular electrode containing a flux and a constant-voltage or a constant-current welding power supply.
