Fabrication is the process of creating metal products from raw materials. This can include anything from cutting and shaping metal to welding and assembling it into finished products.
Welding is a key part of the fabrication process. It is a method of joining two or more pieces of metal together using heat and pressure. Welding is often used to create structures and products that are too large or too complex to be made using traditional methods of joining, such as bolting or riveting.
There are many different types of welding fabrication, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. MIG welding, or Metal Inert Gas welding, is a type of welding that uses an electrode to create an electric arc between the metal being welded and the welding machine. The electrode is fed through a wire feeder and is consumable, meaning it will be used up during the welding process.
TIG welding, or Tungsten Inert Gas welding, uses a non-consumable electrode to create an electric arc between the metal being welded and the welding machine. TIG welding is more difficult to master than MIG welding, but it can be used to weld metals that are difficult to weld using MIG welding, such as aluminum.
The type of welding that is best for a particular project will depend on a number of factors, including the materials to be used, the desired strength of the joint, and the speed and cost of the project. By working with a qualified welding fabrication company, you can be sure that the welding process is done correctly and safely.
