WELDING PROCESSES

There are more than 30 types of welding processes, but the most popular are Stick Welding (SMAW), MIG Welding (Metal Inert Gas), and TIG Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas).

Which welding process is best for your project? The type of welding process best suited for your specific needs is usually determined by the type of materials we’re trying to join together.

Below is a list of welding processes used at Gorski Welding, and a brief explanation of each.

• GTAW, Gas Tungsten Arc (TIG)

• GMAW, Gas Metal Arc (MIG)

• FCAW, Flux Core Arc (FLUXCORE)

• SMAW, Shielded Metal Arc

• RSW, Resistance Spot Welding

• TB, Torch Brazing

• Orbital Welding/Automated Welding

• Ball Tacking

RSW, Resistance Spot Welding

When an easily-automated, low-fume and cost-effective welding solution is desired, resistance spot welding should be considered.

This spot welding process joins a variety of metals and component parts. Electrodes are applied to the metal pieces that will be joined together. An electrical current is then concentrated into a small “spot” in order to melt the materials and form the weld.
