NEW PACKAGING OF WIRE FOR STRUCTURAL STEEL ERECTION BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION SHIP FABRICATION
Fabshield XLR-8 and Fabshield XLNT-6 self-shielded flux-cored wires from Hobart Brothers come in easy-to-identify screen-printed boxes that include valuable wire parameter information that assists users in proper welding procedure.
Miller Electric Strategically Expands Welding Automation Channel in North America
Panasonic robotic and electronic welding technology will be combined with Miller products and delivered to market under the new Miller Welding Automation business unit.
Jobs Increase on the Horizon for Sheet Metal Workers
There once was a time when pipefitters and iron workers were the icons of the welding craft. Not any more. Sheet metal workers with welding skills are now working in power and nuclear facilities and automobile manufacturing plants that are coming online as welding certification becomes a valuable asset on job sites across the U.S.
ROBOTIC WATER-COOLED MIG GUN MAXIMIZES PRODUCTIVITY
The TOUGH GUN robotic water-cooled MIG gun from Tregaskiss features 600-amp water-cooled welding capacity and is designed to withstand the abuse of thick-plate and high-duty cycle applications.
REDUCE FUEL USE BY 25 PERCENT IN PIPE WELDING FABRICATION FIELD MAINTENANCE REPAIR
The industrial-strength Big Blue 400 Eco Pro welder generator from Miller Electric Mfg. saves space and simplifies the operation of Stick, TIG, MIG, FCAW and CAC-A processes.
Lincoln Electric Announces 4Q10 Motorsports Welding School Schedule
The Motorsports Welding School uses hands-on applications to teach students the fundamentals of welding on racecars and expand their knowledge from basic to advanced materials.
POWER SUPPLY IDEAL FOR RESISTANCE SOLDERING HEAT SEALING AND CONDUCTIVE ADHESIVE BONDING
The Uniflow3 from Miyachi Unitek provides targeted heating and precision temperature control for such components as flex circuits, ribbon cables, wires, SMT components, single- or dual-sided edge connectors and thermocompression bonding of gold ribbon.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC STRESS RELIEF AND WELD CONDITIONING SYSTEM
The reliable Meta-Lax 2000 touch-screen system from Bonal Technologies replaces manually operated systems by automating several tasks that would have required operator input and decision making, such identifying the proper energy level for stress relief.
WELDING METAL FOILS NOW EASIER
Lasers with continuous wave radiation are often too expensive due to the high output powers necessary for the welding process. Pulsed Nd:YAG lasers are offer an alternative, allowing welding with relatively low medium output power and reducing investment costs.
HOW MUCH WIRE? HOW MUCH GAS?
By using some simple math, Kevin Beardsley of Lincoln Electric shows how to make the calculations necessary to get a very accurate estimation on the amount of welding wire and shielding gas needed to complete a job being quoted.
GIVE YOUR ROBOT THE EYESIGHT AND INTELLIGENCE NEEDED TO BECOME A TOP LEVEL WELDER
Over 90 percent of installed robotic arc welding systems are not running up to their full capability. Jeff Noruk of Servo Robot shows some ways to kick that performance up a notch.
ROBOTIC PIPE WELDING
For the pipe welding industry, the three biggest challenges are finding qualified welders, a shift to higher-strength pipe, and keeping up with industry demand. Geoff Lipnevicius of Lincoln Electric examines how the robotic pipe welding of steel, stainless and nickel alloys, and aluminum addresses all three.
