  2. Sharpening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpening

    The substance on the sharpening surface must be harder (hardness is measured on the Mohs scale) than the material being sharpened; diamond is extremely hard, making diamond dust very effective for sharpening, though expensive; less costly, but less hard, abrasives are available, such as synthetic and natural Japanese water-stones. Several ...

  3. 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.

  4. 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. Plasma arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_arc_welding

    Plasma arc welding is an arc welding process wherein coalescence is produced by the heat obtained from a constricted arc setup between a tungsten/alloy tungsten electrode and the water-cooled (constricting) nozzle (non-transferred arc) or between a tungsten/alloy tungsten electrode and the job (transferred arc). The process employs two inert ...

  8. Electric resistance welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_resistance_welding

    The electric current can be supplied to electrodes that also apply clamping pressure, or may be induced by an external magnetic field. The electric resistance welding process can be further classified by the geometry of the weld and the method of applying pressure to the joint: spot welding, seam welding, flash welding, projection welding, for ...

  9. Tungsten - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten

    Tungsten electrode used in a gas tungsten arc welding torch Tungsten filament is used in incandescent lightbulbs, where it is heated until it glows Because of its conductive properties and relative chemical inertness, tungsten is also used in electrodes , and in the emitter tips in electron-beam instruments that use field emission guns , such ...
