Welding thin metal requires a steady hand and the right equipment. We use TIG welding for its precision and control. This method allows us to produce clean, strong welds on even the thinnest metals. We ensure high-quality joins every time by controlling the heat input and using the appropriate filler material.

A fabricated structure’s integrity depends on the welding joints’ quality. There are five types of welding joints: corner, butt, lap, tee, and edge. Each type has a specific purpose and ensures solid and durable structures. Anyone involved in metal fabrication must understand these joints because they determine the design and functionality of the final product.

A typical welding defect is the undercut. This occurs when the weld does not adequately cover the base metal. This flaw could significantly weaken structural integrity, making the weld joint more vulnerable to failure.

Bevel welds are weld joints made between metal pieces that are not parallel or perpendicular to each other. By beveling at least one piece, you can create a larger surface, which allows for a more robust and deeper weld. This technique is crucial for thick materials, where strength and integrity are essential.

The welding fixture is used to position and secure workpieces to facilitate welding. These fixtures ensure the workpieces remain stable during welding, enabling precise and consistent welding results.

Welding defects can affect a weld’s strength, durability, and appearance. Cracks, porosity, and inclusions are some of the most common types. Other types include lack of fusion or penetration, undercuts, overlaps, weld mismatches, excessive penetration, and distortion. By identifying and preventing them, you can improve the appearance and strength of your welds.

Laser soldering uses a laser to melt metals and other materials to join them. Laser soldering allows for precise control and has a smaller area of heat affected. The laser beam heats the workpiece to the temperature necessary to melt and join the materials.

Both brazing and welding join metals but differ in temperature, the process, and the filler used. Brazing is melting and flowing a filler material with a lower melt point than the workpieces over the joint. Welding involves melting the workpieces and adding filler metals to the joint.
