MIG and TIG Welding: Unraveling the Secret Techniques of Commercial Metal Fabrication

Welding, an integral process in commercial metal fabrication, has come a long way since its inception. With many methods available today, MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding stand out for their versatility and efficiency, making them popular in manufacturing industries.

In this blog post, we will look closer at MIG and TIG welding techniques used by commercial steel fabrication companies and why metal fabrication professionals in Orange County, CA, and beyond prefer these methods.

MIG vs. TIG: What's the Difference?

Let's first differentiate the two and understand why they're so popular in commercial metal fabrication.

MIG Welding

Also known as Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)

Utilizes a consumable electrode wire and an inert shielding gas

The electrode wire is continuously fed through a welding gun

Suitable for a wide range of metal types and thicknesses

Metal fabrication companies near you commonly use MIG welding, and have earned a reputation for being a fast and efficient solution for joining metal pieces. Cresco Manufacturing's primary advantage is its adaptability to various metals, making it a top choice for custom metal cutting services.

TIG Welding

Also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)

Employs a non-consumable tungsten electrode and an inert shielding gas

It requires higher precision and more skill from the welder

Produces exceptionally clean and high-quality welds

TIG welding is favored in more specialized metal fabrication projects, such as welding thinner metals or more complex joints. The resultant welds often have better strength and durability, making TIG welding a preferred process in critical applications such as aerospace or automotive components.

Why Choose MIG and TIG Welding for Your Commercial Metal Fabrication Needs?

Now that we've listed the key characteristics of MIG and TIG welding let's explore some reasons why these methods find widespread usage in commercial steel fabrication:

Efficiency: MIG welding offers speed and efficiency that few other welding methods can match. Due to the constant wire feed, MIG welding minimizes downtime and increases productivity.

Versatility: As mentioned earlier, both MIG and TIG welding can accommodate a wide range of metals and projects, making them practical choices in diverse industries.

Quality: TIG welding, in particular, produces high-quality welds that are aesthetically pleasing, strong, and reliable. High quality is crucial in custom metal cutting and high-precision projects.

Cost-effectiveness: Thanks to the efficiency and versatility of these techniques, MIG and TIG welding can contribute to cost savings in the long run.

Athletes Go for the Gold with NASA Spinoffs

NASA technology tends to find its way into the sporting world more often than you’d expect. Fitness is important to the space program because astronauts must undergo the extreme g-forces of getting into space and endure the long-term effects of weightlessness on the human body. The agency’s engineering expertise also means that items like shoes and swimsuits can be improved with NASA know-how.

As the 2024 Olympics are in full swing in Paris, here are some of the many NASA-derived technologies that have helped competitive athletes train for the games and made sure they’re properly equipped to win.

The LZR Racer reduces skin friction drag by covering more skin than traditional swimsuits. Multiple pieces of the water-resistant and extremely lightweight LZR Pulse fabric connect at ultrasonically welded seams and incorporate extremely low-profile zippers to keep viscous drag to a minimum.

Swimsuits That Don’t Drag

When the swimsuit manufacturer Speedo wanted its LZR Racer suit to have as little drag as possible, the company turned to the experts at Langley Research Center to test its materials and design. The end result was that the new suit reduced drag by 24 percent compared to the prior generation of Speedo racing suit and broke 13 world records in 2008. While the original LZR Racer is no longer used in competition due to the advantage it gave wearers, its legacy lives on in derivatives still produced to this day.

Trilion Quality Systems worked with NASA’s Glenn Research Center to adapt existing stereo photogrammetry software to work with high-speed cameras. Now the company sells the package widely, and it is used to analyze stress and strain in everything from knee implants to running shoes and more.

High-Speed Cameras for High-Speed Shoes

After space shuttle Columbia, investigators needed to see how materials reacted during recreation tests with high-speed cameras, which involved working with industry to create a system that could analyze footage filmed at 30,000 frames per second. Engineers at Adidas used this system to analyze the behavior of Olympic marathoners' feet as they hit the ground and adjusted the design of the company’s high-performance footwear based on these observations.

Martial artist Barry French holds an Impax Body Shield while former European middle-weight kickboxing champion Daryl Tyler delivers an explosive jump side kick; the force of the impact is registered precisely and shown on the display panel of the electronic box French is wearing on his belt.

One-Thousandth-of-an-Inch Punch

In the 1980s, Olympic martial artists needed a way to measure the impact of their strikes to improve training for competition. Impulse Technology reached out to Glenn Research Center to create the Impax sensor, an ultra-thin film sensor which creates a small amount of voltage when struck. The more force applied, the more voltage it generates, enabling a computerized display to show how powerful a punch or kick was.

Astronaut Sunita Williams poses while using the Interim Resistive Exercise Device on the ISS. The cylinders at the base of each side house the SpiraFlex FlexPacks that inventor Paul Francis honed under NASA contracts. They would go on to power the Bowflex Revolution and other commercial exercise equipment.

Weight Training Without the Weight

Astronauts spending long periods of time in space needed a way to maintain muscle mass without the effect of gravity, but lifting free weights doesn’t work when you’re practically weightless. An exercise machine that uses elastic resistance to provide the same benefits as weightlifting went to the space station in the year 2000. That resistance technology was commercialized into the Bowflex Revolution home exercise equipment shortly afterwards.

Flanges: Types and applications in Industries

Flanges are essential for forming a pipe work structure by connecting valves, tubes, pumps, and other machines. Flanges are usually welded or fastened together and then joined by screwing them together with washers.

SPP Metals and Alloys offers many types of flanges, such as Slip On, Weld-neck, Blind flanges, Socket weld flanges, and Threaded flanges. Flanges are a crucial part of plumbing systems and come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

In this article, We will discuss various types of flanges and their Uses/Applications in industries!

Types of Flanges

Slip-on flanges

A Slip-On Flange is a band that fits over the end of a tube, with a flange's surface extending from the end of the pipeline to the point where a weld bead can be applied to the inside of the pipe. These flanges are termed "Slip-On" because they can be quickly placed on a conduit by simply sliding them onto the tube. The Slip-On-Flanges internal size is slightly larger than the pipe's external dimension, enabling it to be welded quickly onto the pipe at both its top and bottom. It is used for slipping into the inner hole of the flange. If working with low pressure, Slip On Flanges can be a suitable choice.

Application of Slip-On-flanges

Oil, Natural gas, and refined hydrocarbon (steam lines)

Petrochemical Facilities

Cryogenic services

Pump Industries

Plant engineering

Wastewater recycling plant

Paper and pulp Industries

Chemical Industries and many more

Weld Neck Flanges

Weld Neck Flanges are also known as High Hub Flanges or Tapered Hub Flanges. The movable neck of the Weld Neck Flange (WN Flange) relieves pressure that has built up at the base of the flange and can be used for high-pressure, high-temperature pipelines.

Applications of Weld Neck Flanges

Chemical Industries

Power/electricity Industries

Aerospace      

Food processing industry and many more.

Marine industry

Water waste management

Mechanical engineering

Food Processing industries and many more

Threaded flanges

A threaded flange looks similar to a slip-on flange, but it has a bore that matches the internal diameter of a pipe. Threaded flanges can be used in piping systems where no welding over the pipe is allowed, such as in highly explosive locations. Threaded flanges are used with galvanized and cast-iron piping. With smaller diameters, threaded flanges can be fitted without welding.

Application of Threaded Flanges

Here are a few of the Industries where Threaded Flanges are been Used. They are used in explosive areas Such as petrol stations, hexane plants, stores with flammable fluids, etc.

Additionally, Threaded flanges are also used in various industries such as

Shipbuilding

Power Generation

Petrochemical plants

Oil refineries

Wastewater treatment plants

Paper mills

Pharmaceutical plants, and so on.

Socket-welded flanges

A socket is welded onto this type of flange, allowing the flange to be attached to the pipe with an inserted bolt, rather than welding the flange to the pipe. These flanges are often used when welding is not possible due to high temperatures or when protection from corrosion caused by water or oil is needed.

Application of Socket-Weld Flanges

A socket weld fitting is suitable for applications requiring low- to medium-pressures in limited spaces.

Moreover, these Socket Weld flanges are been used in various Industries such as

Power generation

Shipbuilding

Boilers

Automotive and Aerospace Industries

Pressure vessels

Petrochemical plants

Oil refineries

Wastewater treatment plants

Paper mills, pharmaceutical plants, and so on.

Blind Flanges

A blind flange is a type of flange that has no bore center and is used to terminate or seal the end of a piping system. Due to system pressure and the necessary fastening forces, these flanges are put under a lot of mechanical stress. Due to this, they are suitable for high-pressure applications and testing gas or liquid flow through pipes. Blind flanges allow easy access to the pipeline since they can easily be unbolted by the operator.

Applications of Blind Flanges such as,

Vacuum Systems

Pipeline and ports.

Removal of impurities from water.

Systems for conveying materials.

Plants and refineries process chemicals.

Production of electricity and so on.

With SPP Metal & Alloys materials and grades in which these flanges are available.

Super Duplex: S32750/S32760/F55/F53

Duplex: S31803/S32205/SMO 254

Most small towns have a museum. Sure, they might not be ornate, enormous buildings filled with art. Once you pass a certain amount of people there's going to be some kind of hoard of historical items. We just naturally want to be able to tell future folks that we were here, that the things we did mattered, and here's where we came from, as evidenced by this old plaque, and a blurry photograph of the lady who got mysteriously murdered on this very night exactly 100 years ago.

One thing that almost all of them are lacking is a suit of armour. See, suits of armour are a big thing in museums in cartoons. Whenever you see Scooby-Doo investigating someone stealing t-rex bones, those crazy teens always somehow manage to end up over in Late English Medieval History and hide in a suit of armour. This is probably because suits of armour are fun for cartoonists to draw, and extremely time consuming for local, small-town cranks to fabricate.

Me, I live in a big city, and that means the museum has some very strict standards for what it accepts into its collection. Items have to be "historically significant," or at least not some random garbage that I welded together. They've got a suit of armour. It doesn't come from here: the museum has it because the queen gave us one when she visited. It's part of our history, sure, but only by accident, in the same way that you can't throw away an ugly vase from your mother-in-law because she expects to see it every time she visits on Thanksgiving.

A couple miles outside of the city limits, though, is a small town that I frequently visit. There's many reasons: it's close to affordable rural junkyards, the people are generally friendly to random folks showing up and pretending to have been invited to the barbecue, and the sheriffs are too busy ripping by on the highway to stop in and write exhaust tickets. Their museum fucking sucks, though. It absolutely rots. For starters, it's more of a "drinking hall" than a museum. Any mementoes of the town's last couple of centuries are just loosely nailed to the wall, without even an explanatory label stuck into the picture frame explaining who these ancient folks are. They needed a docent.

All this is to say that it really wasn't that hard to weld together a suit of armour. I had a lot of leftover bicycle fenders from the big internet company that went bankrupt. Burying the suit of armour, waiting a few weeks, and then digging it up was way more work, especially since I had to work silently so as not to arouse the suspicions (and indirect fire) of the good townspeople I was about to scam. Scam them I did, however. If you're in the area, come on down to the local museum. You can tell which one it is by the old, leaking Plymouth parked out front, in the "reserved for docent" 24/7 parking space.

tw - unhealthy relationships, implied kidnapping, and obsessive behavior.

You could feel the knife's hilt beating against your palm like a living heart.

The leather-bound grip had been cold when you first picked it up, but it'd since been heated by your own white-knuckle grip, even the flat of the blade warm to the touch were it pressed against your forearm. You didn't dare breathe, didn't dare move from where you were; pressed against the shogun's chest, spread across her lap, your hands clasped at your midriff and hidden beneath the overlap of your flowing sleeves. She'd always insisted you be dressed in clothes designed not to fit - made just a little too big and just a little too ornate, as if you were a doll meant to be dressed in others' fineries. Today, her preferences had simply worked in your favor.

Ei was a warrior and a blacksmith, a woman who knew weapons from the moment of their creation to the second they were broken off in the chest of some unfortunate monster. If your knife shown through your sleeve, if you let its blade catch the dim candlelight of her personal chambers, she'd know in an instant, and you'd be stripped of both your acquired defenses and what few privileges you'd been able to earn since she first took a shine to you. Still, you could only do so much to fight your nerves, to stop yourself from shifting when your legs began to prick with numbness - a habit which Ei, thankfully, took as discomfort rather than anxiety.

Her reaction was one of honey-glazed sympathy, the kind of fondness you might show to a beloved pet that'd just tripped over its own feet. Her arm dropped away from her low desk and to your waist, where she took you up and pulled you ever-closer. You could feel her smile, soft and careless, against the crook of your shoulder, the stoicism she weld with such talent in front of her subjects falling away without a struggle. It'd always baffled you - how she seemed to content to bask in the company of the person in Inazuma who wanted to share hers the least. "Does my little beloved grow tired?" A short pause, a hesitant nod. You weren't - the adrenaline overshadowed any kind of exhaustion you'd be able to harbor - but she didn't have to know that. It'd help her to dismiss your fidgeting as nothing more than the tics of a mortal being. "Ah, my most sincere apologies. Just give me a few more minutes, then we'll go to bed together."

The very idea made you cringe, forced to recall the endless nights you spent wrapped in the arms of the unsleeping goddess with roaming hands, but you did what you could to melt into her, to make it seem like you were too worn down to fight the idea. "Why do we have to wait?" you asked, letting your words drawl together. "You shouldn't be working on anything so important this late at night."

"Just a going over a few reports from my commissioners. If all is well, I shouldn't have to do anything more than read." With a thoughtful hum, she put down the piece of parchment in her hand and reached across her desk, to the sealed scroll on the other side of the tabletop. "Say, love, do you know where I put my letter ope--"

You took your opportunity while she was distracted, tearing your knife from your sleeve and, without giving yourself time to think, thrusting it into her stomach. You didn't stop until the guard was flush to her skin, until you could force your shaking hand to release the hilt. You waited for her to recoil, to lash out, but the blow never came. For the longest time, she didn't seem to react at all.

And then, with no more ceremony than she might've taken to bat a fly from her hand or brush a spot of ink from your cheek, she clicked her tongue, reached down, and pulled the knife from her abdomen. No blood ran from the open wound, nor could you see the gore and viscera you had expected - just black void behind tattered fabric, as empty and as hollow as the woman who inhabited it. "I didn't realize you were in such a rush," she said, cutting through the seal binding her scroll with a single confident stroke and offering you a slight grin. "Next time you have something to give me, it may be less difficult to place it in my hand than my stomach."

You could feel yourself nod as something split open in your chest. There was a subtle crack, a distant ache, and with nothing else to do, you let yourself fall back against her chest, Ei welcoming you with open arms.
