We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Welding Processes",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Versatile welders suit many applications from
Butters AMT, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Fusor 160 is a multi-process, single-phase inverter-based machine with built-in wire feed".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Company appoints welding demonstrator from
Wilkinson Star: "Tony Follows will demonstrate and advise customers on the selection of the correct welding process and equipment for the work being carried out".
In February 2007, we covered the news from Frost and Sullivan
- take a look at European welding market faces eastern competition
which says: "The European welding equipment market for shipbuilding applications earned revenues of $43.2 million in 2006".
Take a look also at the news release from Altair Engineering, CAE tools expand simulation technology,
as well as Welding processes explained online from Kemppi (UK),
and Rods make light work of welding aluminium from Durafix Easyweld.
