2. 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.

3. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

   The rods could be a metal coated in oil to prevent the rod oxidising if needed or in more complicated welding of metals the rod would be coated in a "flux" that was not an active flux but a method of protecting the welding rods from oxidisation during storage (the major examples of this were rods for welding; pure aluminium, duralumin ...

4. Hardfacing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardfacing

   For each industrial application and wear phenomena, there is a welding electrode to provide wear resistance. Hardfacing can be deposited by various welding methods: Shielded metal arc welding; Gas metal arc welding, including both gas-shielded and open arc welding; Oxyfuel welding; Submerged arc welding; Electroslag welding

5. Carbon arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_arc_welding

   Carbon arc welding (CAW) is an arc welding process which produces coalescence of metals by heating them with an arc between a non-consumable carbon electrode and the work-piece. It was the first arc-welding process developed but is not used for many applications today, having been replaced by twin-carbon-arc welding and other variations.

6. 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.

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 .
