It depends on what metal you are welding and how thick it is, but in general, no. Any process that will raise enough heat for adequate weld penetration is for the most part equal.

What typy of welding machine do you need to weld steel?

Steel is such a commonly used metal that almost any welding machine can accommodate it. Some are better than others though. Steel is usually welded with either sick welding, or wire welding (gas shielded or flux core)


What are the 5 different types of welding?

There are far more than 5 types or processes of welding. Currently the American Welding Society (AWS) states that there are more than 80 different welding and joining processes. However, some of the common welding processes include shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), flux cored arc welding (FCAW), and oxyfuel gas welding (OFW).


What are facts about welding?

# If you look into the flame you'll go blind, # if you touch the flame it will burn you, # your face is always hotter than your buttocks, # a cigarette always tastes better when lit by a torch flame, # always weld with a full gas tank, # you can get a tan/sunburn from welding, and # welding is fun when you weld random items together.


What is the principle of tig welding?

Tungsten Inert Gas (orTIG) welding is also referred to as GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) and by the term Heliarc® which was the Linde Company's trade name for the TIG process when it was originally introduced.The welding arc is started with a sharply pointed tungsten electrode shielded by inert gas. A separate filler rod is fed manually into the weld puddle in much the same way as is done when gas welding.The process is well suited for aluminum.


Do you need tools for welding?

Every welder ought to have many clamps! C-clamps, vice grips, wide mouth vice grips (snap clamps) and bar clamps; a nice dead blow (metal mallet covered in rubber,) wire brush to clean welding area before and after weld, good grinder to grind down a finished weld. Also setup blocks, but that's only in R&D and precision welding shops.

Is arc welding stronger than mig welding?

Using the correct procedures and filler material they can both have the same strength. P.S. both are considered "arc welding"


Better glue than Epoxy?

Depends on what you are gluing. For a flexible material, urethane adhesives are a good bet. For thermoplastics and metals, thermal welding (or solvent welding, for plastics) is preferrable. Don't forget that there are many grades of epoxy, and some are many, many times stronger in bond strength than hardware-store types.

Why is brazing better than welding?

Welding would melt the base metal and filler metal while brazzing only melts the filler metal.


How strong mig welding is?

it kind of welding for welding thin sextodecimos with depth and influence in places where welding company's and pullulation bed with a good quality for other fashion seems to be appropriate. If you are asking "how do you determine the tensile strength of MIG welding?" The aswer is it is stated on the box and spool. The number 70 means 70,000 lbs tensile strength same as the 70 in 7018 electrodes.

Porosity is nothing more than bubbles in the weld. Surprisingly a weld can contain quite a bit of porosity without affecting the strength.
