Welding
• Is fabrication process to make high strength joint between two
or more parts by heating to their melting temperature, with or
without the application of pressure and with or without the use
of filler metal. The filler metal has a melting point
approximately same as the base metal.

History of Welding
• By us asking ‘What is welding?’ we are often
not aware of the fact that a lot of work and
technological advances have made welding
what it is today. Early examples of welding have
been discovered which date back to thousands
of years ago. These were known as forge
welding which simply involved the heating of
two metal surfaces and hammering them
together. It was only during the 19th Century that
welding became what we know it as today.
When asking ‘What is welding?’ very few
people realize that forge welding was done
without the use of electricity. While this welding
was very labor intensive, the industrial
revolution gave rise to the better, improved
methods of welding that we know today.

Classification of Welding
• There are about 35 different welding and brazing process and several soldering methods, in use by the
industry today. There are various ways of classifying the welding for example, they may be classified on the
basis of source of heat(flames ,arc etc.)

Advantages of welding
welding is permanent process.
Efficiency of joint 100%.
Welding produce equal strength as parent method
Portable welding equipment is available.
A lot of similar and dissimilar metal can be joint by welding.
Welding joint as stronger as base metal.
Welding joint are lighter in weight

Disadvantages of welding
• Edge preparation is required
before welding.
• Ultraviolet and inferred rays
produce during welding.
• Thermal stresses are produced
in the weld material.
• Heat treatment process is
required to remove these
stress.
• Skill operator is need to
operate the welding machine.
• HAZ produce.

Melting efficiency
• heat required for melting= melting heat x flow rate of melted
metal
