Available here in the U.S. , completion earns an Associates Degree ( AA ) and at some institutions an AWS certification. Small companies usually do not employ these individuals whereas large companies look for them as well as "Inhire or basic" weldors. An AA Degree puts you on the fast track to promotion and always pays more.

There are currently two ABET (Accreditation Board of Engineering Technology) accredited universities in the United States for Welding Engineering and Welding Engineering Technology. The universities are Ohio State University and Ferris State University, respectively. Both of which offer a Bachelor's of Science. Ohio State University also offers a Master's and currently a Doctorate in Welding Engineering.

Welding post heating?

This is a simple stress relieving process the welder can do to minimize warpage of material that was just welded.


Is post weld heat treatment is part of Non-destructive testing?

Post weld heat treat is done to bring back strength properties lost during welding. It is not related to non destructive testing


What is the disadvantage of without preheating in welding?

Preheating can assist the welding penetration on materials with high thermal conductivity such as thick aluminum sections or even some steels. This reduces the heat sink affect (rapid cooling) of the deposited weld by the surrounding cold metal. Preheating also significantly reduces the rapid cooldown of the item post welding. Contrary to many beliefs, it is difficult if not impossible to overheat metals but many metals (such as carbon steels) can become brittle if cooled rapidly. They can also lock in post weld stresses that can compromise the engineering qualities expected. Preheating builds up heat in the metal and it takes longer for it to cool. In affect, preheating is also a portion of the postheating formula. In most welding code applications, carbon steels and some other metals require preheating prior to welding to be in compliance.


Reverse polarity in welding?

Immediate and catastrophic destruction of transistors and/or diodes. While that does not ALWAYS occur, it's certainly possible. Start with the alternator. No doubt those diodes have been destroyed if a battery has been connected with reverse polarity.


For ss welding which electrodes should be used?

This would depend on several variable such as: Welding process being used (SMAW, GMAW, etc). Specific type and grade of the Stainless Steel. The required tensile strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. If you are welding pressure piping, the applicable ASME codes have a table in section IX. AWS D1.6 addresses structural applications. There are three basic types of Stainless Steels. Austenitic, Martensitic, and ferritic. Each has characteristics that differ from each other in the post welded condition. For a good selection of electrodes and their applications, your local welding supplier should have free reference books by various suppliers that will help. These are the same books we us to assist us in developing welding procedures to various codes and standards.
