  2. Welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

    Ultrasonic welding is commonly used for making electrical connections out of aluminum or copper, and it is also a very common polymer welding process. [47] Another common process, explosion welding, involves the joining of materials by pushing them together under extremely high pressure. The energy from the impact plasticizes the materials ...

  3. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

    Workers welding in parking garage. Welding is the main focus of steel fabrication. [8] Formed and machined parts are assembled and tack-welded in place, then rechecked for accuracy. If multiple weldments have been ordered, a fixture may be used to locate parts for welding. A welder then finishes the work according to engineering drawings (for ...

  4. List of welding processes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_welding_processes

    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 ]

  5. Diffusion bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_bonding

    Diffusion bonding or diffusion welding is a solid-state welding technique used in metalworking, capable of joining similar and dissimilar metals. It operates on the principle of solid-state diffusion, wherein the atoms of two solid, metallic surfaces intersperse themselves over time.

  6. Forge welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forge_welding

    Forge welding (FOW), also called fire welding, is a solid-state welding process [1] that joins two pieces of metal by heating them to a high temperature and then hammering them together. [2] It may also consist of heating and forcing the metals together with presses or other means, creating enough pressure to cause plastic deformation at the ...

  7. Metalworking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalworking

    Metalworking is the process of shaping and reshaping metals in order to create useful objects, parts, assemblies, and large scale structures. As a term, it covers a wide and diverse range of processes, skills, and tools for producing objects on every scale: from huge ships , buildings, and bridges , down to precise engine parts and delicate ...

  8. Hardfacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardfacing

    With the shielded metal arc welding and gas metal arc welding hardfacing processes, the life span of the ploughshare was increased approximately 2 times. [1] Extensive work in research has resulted in the development of a wide range of alloys and welding procedures. The optimum alloy selection is made considering the component service ...

  9. Welding Procedure Specification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding_Procedure...

    The Canadian Welding Bureau, through CSA Standards W47.1, [3] W47.2 [4] and W186, [5] specifies both a WPS and a Welding Procedure Data Sheet (WPDS) to provide direction to the welding supervisor, welders and welding operators. The WPS provides general information on the welding process and material grouping being welded, while the WPDS ...
