METAL WELDING

Metal Welding Service

Welding is a manufacturing process and technology to join metals or other thermoplastic materials such as plastics by heating, high temperature or high pressure. There are many types of welding. TIG(Tungsten Inert Gas), MIG (Metal, Inert Gas), GMAW (Metal, Gas Arc Welding), and arc welding are the most common welding methods. Hunkmachining offers welding services for various kinds of metalsranging from stainless steel and carbon steel. Our engineers will assist you with design to after sales. As a metal welding factory, metal welding company, metal welding supplier, we are capable of designing welding tooling and custom gauge. Along with advanced welding equipment including a welding robot, we will offer the best welding solution for your project.

Types Of Custom Metal Welding

MIG Welding - Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)

TIG Welding - Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)

Stick Welding - Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)

WHAT IS USED IN WELDING OF METALS?

Steel

Steel is the most common metal used in welding. It has many properties that are proper for welding processes. It has high tensile strength that can undertake a mass stress. There are stainless steel, carbon steel and low carbon steel for choice in welding depending on the product. Mild steel is especially easy to weld as it has an outstanding ductility. Besides, the price of steel is cheap which is one of the reasons it is so popular in welding.

Aluminum

Widely used on vehicles, aluminum has a strong corrosion resistance like stainless steel. Although its melting points is lower than steel, it requires more heat for welding. TIG welding is one of the best choices when welding aluminum.

Copper

Copper has good electrical conductivity, heat conductivity and corrosion resistance. It does not need to be preheated before welding because of its high heat conductivity. Sometimes it is treated with manual arc welding for lower cost. However, that may lead to unreliable quality. Therefore, most companies use TIG or gas metal arc welding to weld copper.

Other materials

Many other materials can also be found in welding process(e.g. brass, titanium, cast iron, magnesium alloys). Some of these materials require specific methods. Magnesium alloys as an example, should be welded by AC-TIG welding. Equipment and welders need to be more qualified to manage that.As a metal processing company, we will do our best to meet all the needs of customers.
