Stick Welding or SMAW is one of the welding types. Further, it uses a consumable electrode covered with flux for laying welds. Shielded metal arc welding uses both the DC/AC depending on the electrode needed for the welding process. Welders perform most of the welding activities using the stick welding process. In simple words, the […]

GTAW Welding process is also commonly known as TIG welding or Tungsten Inert Gas welding. It is an arc welding process that uses a non-consumable electrode (tungsten) for producing welds. Normally, the TIG type uses filler materials but in some cases, it may not be required. In this process, the weld area is protected by

MIG welding or Metal Inert Gas welding is an arc welding process that uses a continuous solid wire electrode and shielding gas for laying welds. GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) is another name for MIG welding. In some places, peoples use ‘wire welding’ as a slang name for it. Being a common welding process, manufacturing

The major FCAW and GMAW differences are in their consumables. GMAW uses a consumable wire electrode and that of FCAW uses flux-cored wire for laying welds. FCAW (Flux Cored Arc Welding) also known as flux-cored. This is the other most popular name of it in the welding industry. It is one of the welding processes

Metal-cored Arc Welding is a welding process that uses heat for joining metals. MCAW is another variant of the MIG welding and MAG welding processes. More specifically, metal-cored Arc Welding is a technique that employs heat for joining metals and DC electric arc produces it. Next, the arc is attached to both the work peace
