Linear friction welding welds materials together using heat from friction. After placing two materials into a welding machine they are then pushed tightly together. One of the two materials moves ...

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 ...

Welding thin sheet metal can be challenging because you need to obtain adequate fusion while preventing distortion and burnthrough. The key skill is to control the heat across the sheet metal to ...

In recent decades, material scientists have made ever-stronger metals—but the techniques used to weld them often ruin their properties. Now, a team has developed a way to weld together these ...

Welding sheetmetal together makes burning thick metal together seem like a smiley walk in your favorite off-road shop. Welding sheetmetal is scary and daunting. Why, you may ask. Well, there are ...

Join us for Weld Together, a hands-on welding workshop designed for beginners, with a focus on welcoming women and young girls. In this class, you will: Create your very own sheet metal rose to take ...

Scientists from Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK, have welded glass and metal together using an ultrafast laser system, in what they are describing as “a breakthrough for the manufacturing ...

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Twenty years ago, it was a revolutionary idea for welding metal together. Ten years later, it was critical technology for America's space shuttle. Today, the technology called ...
