Not having used a laser to weld , this may be the only one that comes to mind. Oxy -acetylene uses up gas , even though no filler rod may be used, MIG welding uses wire , most other types of welding use some sort of cosumable whether it be rods or coated electrodes , something in the processes gets used to fill the weld or to shield it from contamination. I cannot be sure if some part of a laser is used up in order to make the weld.

What is weld mapping?
Weld mapping are visible marks that are seen on metal welded parts. Either they are welded together or repaired and sometimes you can tell who welded it, and when the weld was placed. Weld mapping is the process of assigning information to a weld joint to enable easy identification of its design (WPS), production (welders, their qualifications, date welded), quality (visual inspection, NDT) and traceability (heat numbers of materials joined & welding consumables). Weld mapping should also incorporate a pictorial identification to represent the weld number on the fabrication drawing, in case the designer does not nominate a weld number. You can use online weld mapping software such as Smart Welding Manager to create weld maps that provide 100% traceability as well as a pictorial representation.
What is the welding process uses a resistive heating system to achieve weld metal deposition?
Manual Metal Arc Welding
What is SMAW process?
SMAW stands for Shielded Metal Arc Welding. This process uses electrodes with flux coating, which release gases to surround the weld metal, thereby preventing oxidation.
Whats the best socket or butt weld?
Socket weld, because it's stronger; butt weld, because it uses less metal. The "best" weld depends on what you're building.
What is dual shield welding?
Welding process that uses both flux core, within the wire, and gas to protect the molten weld pool from contamination.
What are five things the welding symbol will tell the welder about the weld that is to be made?
The welding symbol provides essential information about the weld, including the type of weld (e.g., fillet, groove), the size of the weld, the length of the weld, the welding process to be used, and any specific requirements for the weld, such as the finish or pre-weld treatments. It may also indicate the position of the weld and any additional details regarding the joint preparation. This standardized communication ensures consistency and clarity in welding operations.
How could create a WPS weld?
A WPS, Welding Procedure Specification, is a document that is created to provide detailed instructions about a standardized process for a given type of weld. All known variables and conditionsÊmust be included.
What is Seal weld in structures?
The seal weld in a structure is used a weld used for tightness. Specifically this type of weld is used for holding in liquids or gaseous materials.
What inches you can weld with one electrode?
It varies from 3 inches to 13 inches. The electrode type, type of weld, and position of weld all determine how far you can get done with a single rod
What are the best practices for achieving a strong PVC weld?
To achieve a strong PVC weld, it is important to properly clean and prepare the surfaces to be joined, use the correct type and amount of solvent cement, apply even pressure during the welding process, and allow sufficient time for the weld to cure.
What is the function of slag for welding?
Slag in welding acts as a protective layer on the molten weld pool. It helps to prevent contamination from the atmosphere, improve the weld's appearance, and facilitate the solidification process of the weld metal.
