WELD-1029GMAW and SMAW Welding
This course will introduce and equip students with basic theoretical knowledge of gas metal arc welding GMAW (MIG) and shielded metal arc welding SMAW (Arc). Students will learn terminology and become familiar with different welding machine types and related equipment, gases used in welding, identifying filler wires, and various transfer methods. Students will also learn about electrode identification and use, polarity, and electricity. Through a series of welding exercises, students will learn the proper procedures and safe practices for welding joints (tee, lap, corner joints) in flat position using various welding processes.
