Variety of Contact Welding Machines You Could Use
Welding is a process that is utilized in various industries to join two metal pieces, which can be of the same material or two different ones. This results to the formation of a new product. In order to perform welding you need a welding machine and feeds, which help join various metals as well as plastics.
Manufacturing industries use different types of welding machines. Thanks to the advancement of technologies, it is now possible to weld ceramics and plastics. There are different devices used to weld the materials depending on the process and the use.
Most of the welding machines supply heat and let the metallic surface fuse together with the weld. It is a permanent bond that will not part unless applied with a similar force or cut into pieces.
- The first type is the entire type welding machine that uses a weld alloy to join metal surfaces.
- Then there are the contact welding machine and arc welding machine. There are two types of arch welding machines:
– Gas metal arc welding and Metal arc welding machine.
There are different types of welding machines based on the energy source used to weld metal parts. These are:
- Solid state welding machine
- Fusion welding machine
- Resistance welding machine.
- Laser welding machine that utilizes laser beams to weld pieces together. The laser welding machine is used to weld plastic materials because it is easier to spot weld with the beam.
