Welding has come a long way from the days of oxy-acetylene, arc, and spot welds. MIG and TIG enable the effective and efficient joining of aluminum, alloys, and other metals that do not react well to high heat. Improving technology greatly impacts the welding trade. So, what are trends in the welding industry? Knowing can help you […]
Are you wondering, “What is a spring?” In simple terms, springs are devices that store mechanical potential energy. They are extremely common and are found in almost every industry you can think of. Additionally, springs come in various shapes and materials, including serpentine springs and wooden bows. There are four common springs that will be explained […]
Coil design and creation is an engineering and technological process of creating and producing different types of metal coils through induction heating. On the other hand, coil fabrication redesigns metal coils into different shapes, sizes, colors, etc. The coil design and fabrication process require heat exposure of varying temperature degrees. One of the main benefits […]
Steel is one of the hardest materials to work with. It is very strong and durable, but also very difficult to shape. That’s why steelworkers have to be specially trained to work with it. If you’re asking, "How do you bend steel?", there are a few things you should know first. Type of Steel First […]
Metalworking often requires the application of extreme heat to make the metal malleable. Heating metal causes its molecules move faster, which makes the metal easier to shape the way you want. Unfortunately, working with extreme heat creates additional workplace dangers that could become deadly. Heat is often created by gas, and gas containers could explode. […]
