Welding Technology
Process, manufacturer and personnel qualification
Welding Technology has already been industrially useful for a long time. Different disciplines have developed, such as MAG, MIG, TIG, MMA, plasma, submerged arc, oxyacetylene and laser welding. The practice of these welding techniques must be controlled to minimize risks.
