2. Welding power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding_power_supply

   A welding power supply is a device that provides or modulates an electric current to perform arc welding. [1] There are multiple arc welding processes ranging from Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) to inert shielding gas like Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) or Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW).

3. Arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

   Arc welding power supplies can deliver either direct (DC) or alternating (AC) current to the work, while consumable or non-consumable electrodes are used. The welding area is usually protected by some type of shielding gas (e.g. an inert gas), vapor, or slag. Arc welding processes may be manual, semi-automatic, or fully automated.

4. Shielded metal arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielded_metal_arc_welding

   Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), also known as manual metal arc welding (MMA or MMAW), flux shielded arc welding [1] or informally as stick welding, is a manual arc welding process that uses a consumable electrode covered with a flux to lay the weld.

5. Power inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

   A power inverter, inverter, or invertor is a power electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). [1] The resulting AC frequency obtained depends on the particular device employed. Inverters do the opposite of rectifiers which were originally large electromechanical devices converting AC to DC. [2]

6. List of welding processes - Wikipedia

   Plasma Arc Welding: 15: PAW Nonconsumable electrode, constricted arc Tubing, instrumentation Shielded Metal Arc Welding [5] 111: SMAW Consumable electrode covered in flux, can weld any metal as long as they have the right electrode Construction, outdoors, maintenance Submerged Arc Welding: 121: SAW Automatic, arc submerged in granular flux

7. Flux-cored arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux-cored_arc_welding

   Flux-cored arc welding (FCAW or FCA) is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process. FCAW requires a continuously-fed consumable tubular electrode containing a flux and a constant- voltage or, less commonly, a constant- current welding power supply .

8. Welder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welder

   A welder is a person or equipment that fuses materials together.The term welder refers to the operator, the machine is referred to as the welding power supply.The materials to be joined can be metals (such as steel, aluminum, brass, stainless steel etc.) or varieties of plastic or polymer.

9. Induction welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_welding

   The apparatus used for induction welding processes includes a radio frequency power generator, a heating station, the work piece material, and a cooling system. The power generator comes in either the form of solid state or vacuum tube and is used to provide an alternating current of 230-340 V or a frequency of 50–60 Hz to the system.
