Plasma Arc Welding
 

Plasma arc welding is similar to TIG (GTAW) welding except a more collimated plasma stream is used to fuse work pieces and/or filler alloys. The torch delivers a high level of heat to a small area producing a high quality weld with a minimal heat affected zone.  The tight plasma stream is created by initiating the arc and plasma within the electrode, then forcing the stream and arc through a small orifice and transferring the arc to the work piece.

 


Products & Services
Welding and fabrication services weld and fabricate a variety of materials. They may also perform services such as machining, CAD support, and field welding.
Welding accessories includes products used in, or related to, processes such as MIG, TIG and resistance.
Welding alloys are used to melt and fuse pieces of metal together.
Filler metal alloys and consumables used in welding, brazing or soldering include items in rod sheet, wire spool, coated stick, weld stud, powder, preform or paste forms.
Plasma cutting machines melt an areas with an arc and then use a high-velocity, high-temperature ionized gas to make cuts.
