WELDING. Fabrication Process. Joining two or more elements to make a single part is termed as fabrication process. Fairly large numbers of industrial components are made by fabrication process . Examples: Aircraft ,Shipbuilding, Bridges, Sheet metal parts etc.

Classification Of Fabrication Process • Mechanical joining by means of bolts, screws and rivets. • Welding, Brazing and Soldering.
Definition for welding Welding is a joining process that uses heat, pressure, and/or chemicals to fuse two materials together permanently.Welding covers a temp range of 1500º F - 3000º F (800ºC - 1635ºC).
Plastic Welding The pieces are heated to a plastic state and then forced together by external pressure.
Gas welding ( oxy acetylene, air –acetylene ,oxy -hydrogen) • Resistance welding (Butt, Projection, percussion ,spot , seam) • Thermit welding • Solid state welding ( friction, diffusion , ultrasonic, explosive) • Advance welding (electro beam ,laser beam)
Classification of ARC WeLding
Carbon Arc Welding • In carbon arc welding heat is produced with an arc between a carbon electrode and work, normally no shielding gas is used. • Carbon arc welding process can be used as an all position welding process.
MIG Welding • In mig welding process a consumable wire of 0.8 to 2.4 mm dia is wounded in spool form is feed at a preset speed through a welding torch where it is provided the electrical connection and the shelding gas.
TIG WELDING • Tig welding is a process in which the source of heat is an arc formed between a non consumable tungsten electrode and the work piece, shielding gas argon is supplied continuously during welding
Submerged Arc Welding • Submerged arc welding is the process in which continuous copper coated spooled wire is used with loose granulated powder ahead of the arc , so to protect the molten pool from atmospheric gases.
