What You Need to Know About Weld Anatomy and Joint Geometry
Are you wasting lots of time and money on welds that are larger than they need to be, particularly on thicker materials? Or dealing with inconsistent quality or increased crack sensitivity due to welds with improper dimensions? There are many different ways to design welds that strike the best balance between weld quality and productivity.
Switching Polarity in Welding Applications
When competing for time-critical jobs, saving even a few minutes with each changeover can make a significant difference and reduce operator exposure to trip and fall hazards. Investing in technology that allows welders to easily change processes with the push of a button at the weld joint can save substantial time, increase weld quality and improve operator safety.
Montage Partners Acquires METALfx
The existing management team of METALfx remains and also owns a meaningful equity stake in the business.
Manufacturing vs. Fabrication: How to Make the Distinction
Is your operation highly repeatable or do you require more equipment and personnel flexibility for a wider range of work? Knowing the difference is important in selecting the right equipment and process optimization needed to maximize productivity, save time and money.
All-Process, Fully-Integrated Portable Welding
The Rebel EMP 205 AC/DC all-process, inverter-based welding system from ESAB is ideal for fabricators who want to weld all metals with all processes and use only a single unit.
How Inexperienced Welders Do More in Light Fabrication
Easily moved around the shop or in the field, the Millermatic 255 MIG welder and Multimatic 255 multi-process welder from Miller Electric are simple to set up and use so that operators of all skill levels can get more done, particularly when welding thin materials.
A Game Changer for Rigorous Welding Jobs
Combining a smaller footprint, quieter operation and clean AC generator power, the Ranger 330MPX gas engine-driven welder/generator from Lincoln Electric delivers more power and versatility for construction, maintenance and repair, farm and ranch, pipeline and other demanding work.
Lincoln Electric Promotes Senior Managers
Dan McMillin is now their vice president and corporate controller, and Bob Nelson is vice president of finance for their Americas Welding segment.
Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Guns
TOUGH GUN TA3 Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Guns from Tregaskiss now include configurations for additional through-arm style FANUC, KUKA and Yaskawa Motoman robots.
Learn More About Electrode Extension, Stickout and Contact-Tip-to-Work Distance
Each of these terms have specific definitions, and using them interchangeably can cause confusion that puts amperage out of the specified range. Understanding the terms being used and how they are defined by AWS provides clarity that can help prevent mistakes and rework.
Polarity Reversing Saves Pipe Welding Time and Money on the Jobsite
Using Quick-Select technology that automatically selects correct polarity, lead outputs and weld parameters, the new XMT 350 FieldPro system with Polarity Reversing from Miller Electric eliminates the need to manually swap leads between welding processes.
Battery-Powered, Rail-Mounted Tractors for Mechanized MIG/MAG Welding
ESAB offers the Railtrac B42V rail-mounted tractor with a new weaving unit and the compact Miggytrac B501 battery-operated tractor for flexible and consistent mechanized welding of long and even not-so-long joints and seams.
