TIG / GTAW Welding
Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), commonly known as tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, is an arc welding process that uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld. The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by a shielding gas (usually an inert gas such as argon), and a filler metal is normally used, though some welds, known as autogenous welds, do not require it. A constant current welding power supply produces energy which is conducted across the arc through a column of highly ionized gas and metal vapors known as a plasma. Read More |
