There are two modes for seam welding: Intermittent and continuous. In intermittent seam welding, the wheels advance to the desired position and stop to make each weld. This process continues until the desired length of the weld is reached. In continuous seam welding, the wheels continue to roll as each weld is made.
A successful orbital weld is 100% automatic and repeatable as long as the operator monitors variables and performs periodic inspections of the weld seam for complete penetration of the weld. Noticing that a variable has changed during the welding process is a necessary skill for orbital welding technicians and operators that can be easily missed.
A specialized process called shot welding, can be used to spot weld stainless steel. [44] Seam welding also relies on two electrodes to apply pressure and current to join metal sheets. However, instead of pointed electrodes, wheel-shaped electrodes roll along and often feed the workpiece, making it possible to make long continuous welds.
This is a list of welding processes, separated into their respective categories. The associated N reference numbers (second column) are specified in ISO 4063 (in the European Union published as EN ISO 4063 ). [ 1 ]
Autogenous welding is a form of welding in which the filler material is either supplied by melting the base material or is of identical composition. [1] The weld may be formed entirely by melting parts of the base metal, and no additional filler rod is used. There is some variation in the use of this term.
Pipes and tubing can be made from rolling and welding together strips, sheets, or plates of material. [4] Flare-groove joints are used for welding metals that, because of their shape, form a convenient groove for welding, such as a pipe against a flat surface. Selection of the right weld joint depends on the thickness and process used.

The main obstacle to overcome in this process is the setting of the parameters. For example, if over-welding occurs, then the concentration of plastic in the weld zone may be too low and cause the seal to break. If it is under-welded, the seal is incomplete. [17] Variations in the thicknesses of materials can cause variations in weld quality.
