Innovative Automated Technology Increases Efficiency in Aluminum Welding

Ideal for manufacturers of trains, road tankers and chemical tanks, shipbuilding and aerospace components, the ARCLINE PP automated welding process from Linde Gases features a positively energized tungsten electrode for constant cathodic cleaning of the welding area to reduce the risk of inclusions and minimize the need for pre-weld cleaning.

Robotic Cold Metal Transfer Welding

The intelligent, modular TPS/i Robotics power source from Fronius can now be equipped with the extremely stable Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) welding process that significantly reduces the heat input and enables continuous regulation from cold to hot for an extremely stable arc and much less spatter, even at high welding speeds.

How to Weld Stainless Steel with Keyhole TIG

This high speed, full penetration GTAW technology offers enormous productivity, cost and quality advantages over existing processes in stainless steels and other corrosion resistant materials. It requires no edge beveling, uses as little as 10 percent of the gas normally required, and produces highly repeatable, X-ray quality welds with superb cap and root aesthetics.

To Improve the Bottom Line, Disrupt the Norm

It’s the classic risk/return trade-off: Changing to new welding processes or procedures can be difficult, but the shop that is willing to accept some level of risk can increase their profitability and gain a competitive edge through reduced costs, better quality, improved productivity and shortened project timelines.

Welding Game Changers for Productivity and Efficiency

Is the jobsite challenging your older equipment and costing you time and money? By switching to some of the new time-saving systems that are now available, you can save money while also improving your productivity, quality and jobsite safety.

Field vs. Shop: What’s the Best Welding Process for Structural Steel Fabrication?

Whether structural steel welding is taking place in an indoor shop setting or outdoors in the field is a factor that either introduces or eliminates a host of elements, including wind, the enemy of shielding gas and the welding processes that rely on it. Here are some insights to help you choose the right structural steel fabrication process for a field application or for shop welding.

Tips for Successful Aluminum MIG Welding Repairs

With its low melting point, the presence of an oxide layer on its surface, prone to burn-through with a difficult-to-control weld pool, aluminum can be somewhat tricky. Here are some insights that will provide you with the best course of action to take for making a repair.
