3. Fusion welding:
Disadvantages
5. Arc Welding:
The shielding gas serves to blanket the weld and exclude the active
properties in the surrounding air. Inert gases such as Argon and Helium
do not chemically react or combine with other gases. They pose no odor
and are transparent,
Permitting the welder maximum visibility of the arc. In some instances
Hydrogen gas may be added to enhance travel speeds. The GTAW
process can produce temperatures of up to 35,000° F (19,426° C). The
torch contributes heat only to the work-piece. If filler metal is required
to make the weld, it may be added manually in the same manner as it is
added in the oxyacetylene welding process. GTAW is used to weld
stainless steel, nickel alloys such as Monel and in conel, titanium,
aluminum, magnesium, copper, brass, bronze and gold. GTAW can also
weld dissimilar metals to one another such as copper to brass and
stainless to mild steel.
Electrogas arc welding (EGW) is used for welding vertical butt joints of
products such as ship shell plates, bridges, storage tanks, and pressure
vessels. This page introduces the features of electrogas arc welding
(EGW), including the shielding gas, welding wire, and welding machine
structure.

8. Conclusion:
Arc welding is a versatile and widely used welding process with
applications across various industries. By understanding the principles,
techniques, applications, advantages, and challenges of arc welding,
manufacturers and welders can optimize their processes to achieve high-
quality welds efficiently and cost-effectively. Continued advancements
in welding technology and equipment are expected to further enhance
the capabilities and versatility of arc welding in the future.
