Metal fabrication is both an exceptionally practical skill and an avenue to some remarkable works of art. However, traditional welding requires a decent amount of training, not to mention potentially ...

Most combined cycle professionals understand that a joint between grade 91 steel and an austenitic stainless steel is considered a dissimilar-metal weld. For that reason, it requires special welding ...

The development of cheaper, more powerful lasers has always been a cause for excitement among hackers, and fiber lasers are ...

Welding is only one part of metalworking. You also can cut steel, using oxygen/acetylene equipment with a special head called a cutting torch. Cutting torches come as part of many consumer-grade gas ...

The welding of dissimilar metal joints in new and retrofit power plant boiler tubing has long proved challenging. New plants designed to operate at higher temperatures and pressures require advanced ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University have now identified a welding technique that can be used to join composite metal foam (CMF) components together without impairing the properties that ...

The Fabricators and Manufacturers Association released its report measuring technology demand in contract and custom metal fabrication. New order activity is rising, as is optimism for the overall ...

How ultrasonic metal welding meets the demand for increasingly advanced battery technologies. In-depth details of how the ultrasonic metal-welding technology works. How ultrasonic metal welding ...

Researchers have identified a welding technique that can be used to join composite metal foam (CMF) components together without impairing the properties that make CMF desirable. CMFs hold promise for ...
