CONCLUSION
DEFINITION OF WELDING
The process in which metals or plastics are
jointed by heating them to a suitable
temperature to cause them to melt and fused
into a single piece.
Temp: 1000 °C to 3500°C
1830 deg F to 6330°F
TYPES OF WELDING
Welding process can be devided into two
major groups:
a) fusion welding and
Arc welding (AW).
Resistance Welding (RW)
Oxyfuel Gas Welding (OGW).
Other fusion welding process. Example: electron
beam welding and laser beam welding.
b) solid-state welding.
Diffusion welding (DFW).
Friction Welding (FRW).

GAS METAL ARC WELDING
(GMAW)
Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) known
as MIG welding. It is an electric arc
welding process use a consumable wire
electrode and the work piece.
The shielding gas then will stabilizes the
arc , shields the arc and allows smooth
transfer of metal from the weld wire to
the molten weld pool.
Gas Metal Arc Welding
(GMAW)
Is a process where a
continuously fed metal electrode
(wire) contacts the base metal
and produces heat .

1. Surface Welds
• Surface welds are welds were a material has
been applied to the surface of another
material.
• Two common applications are
for hard surfacing and padding
2. Groove Welds
Lap Joint

4. Plug Welds
Plug welds are used to attach two surfaces
together when a complete joint is not
required and the design does not allow for
any weld bead outside the dimensions of
the metal.
The weld is completed by establishing the arc on the bottom plate and then
continuing to weld until the hole is full.
