  2. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

    GTAW weld area. Manual gas tungsten arc welding is a relatively difficult welding method, due to the coordination required by the welder. Similar to torch welding, GTAW normally requires two hands, since most applications require that the welder manually feed a filler metal into the weld area with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.

  3. Plasma arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_arc_welding

    Plasma arc welding is an advanced form of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding. In the case of TIG, it is an open arc shielded by argon or helium, whereas plasma uses a special torch where the nozzle is used to constrict the arc while the shielding gas is separately supplied by the torch. The arc is constricted with the help of a water-cooled small ...

  4. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

    Shielding gases fall into two categories—inert or semi-inert. Only two of the noble gases, helium and argon, are cost effective enough to be used in welding.These inert gases are used in gas tungsten arc welding, and also in gas metal arc welding for the welding of non-ferrous metals.

  5. Arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_welding

    Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), or tungsten/inert-gas (TIG) welding, is a manual welding process that uses a non-consumable electrode made of tungsten, an inert or semi-inert gas mixture, and a separate filler material. Especially useful for welding thin materials, this method is characterized by a stable arc and high quality welds, but it ...

  6. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Oxy-fuel welding torch (commonly called oxyacetylene welding, oxy welding, or gas welding in the United States) and oxy-fuel cutting are processes that use fuel gases (or liquid fuels such as gasoline or petrol, diesel, biodiesel, kerosene, etc) and oxygen to weld or cut metals.

  7. Orbital welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_welding

    Orbital welding has almost always exclusively been carried out by the Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG / GTAW) technique using non-consumable electrodes, with additional cold-wire feed where necessary. The easy control of heat input makes TIG-welding the ideal welding method for fully orbital welding of tubes with specialist orbital welding heads, that ...

  8. Weld purging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_purging

    For TIG/GTAW welding, the top side (front side) of a weld is normally protected by inert gas flowing through the welding torch and it is the underside (back side) of the weld where atmospheric gases need to be purged. When joining two parts together with a seal weld, it may be necessary to first hold them together, by making tack welds. [7]

  9. TIP TIG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIP_TIG

    TIP TIG welding torch. TIP TIG is a subset of gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), using a mechanism called filler wire agitation to enhance molten weld pool dynamics. This agitation has been found to enhance the weld puddle fluidity and release evolving gases, reducing the chances of inclusions and porosity, and also separate impurities.
