Where is Spot Welding used? There are many applications of Spot Welding. It is not unique to just connecting metals, and the metals in which Spot Welding is the preferred choice is very wide depending upon the metals' available, and the application. The SpotTrack Project looks solely at the improvements in identifying welding failure and conversely weld quality i.e "Pass Rates" in repairs to automotive applications namely Car Collision Repairs. To understand the role of Spot Welding, it has to be seen in context within Automotive Manufacturing. Automotive Manufacturing Firstly we should consider the complexities in modern vehicle body design. The design objectives are varied such as:- Torsional Strength / Marketable Looks / Weight / Serviceability / Reparability / Economy of Manufacture / Longevity / Use of Common Parts / Survivability / Crashability / Recyclability / Occupant and Pedestrian Safety / Fuel consumption / CO2 emission and cost of ownership / Acceleration / Performance / Disposal at End of Life / Embracing New and Emerging technologies in materials, forming and connecting sciences. As you can see, this is a very complex set of situations and in some circumstances has conflicting objectives. For example, weight reduction might improve performance. However, weight reduction could mean reducing the Torsional Rigidity and Overall Strength of the Body Structure. To achieve lightweight construction they can either use lightweight material like Plastics, Carbon fibre, Magnesium, Aluminum or high strength steel or a combination of many materials. Carbon fibre is absolutely too expensive for the cars of mass market. Aluminum is very expensive as a mass production material, but can be applied on higher priced cars. In some cases e.g. Audi TT, Aluminium is used for the whole body, supplemented by steel. In some cases the front structure of middle class cars uses Aluminium to reduce the weight in the front where we have the engine weight. In these cases to give a 50/50% weight distribution from front to rear. - Listing Details

Here are some advices on welding supplies and how to make the best purchase choices. Welding faster may sound appealing, but aside from practice, there are few shortcuts when creating a strong weld. In fact, unless a situation calls for a fast-moving weld, there's a good chance that slow and steady is the way to go. An online search for ways to weld faster, will yield either descriptions of the ways automated welding has increased welding speed or press releases from companies who claim their gas or electrode holds the key to improving welding speed. In other words, it can seem like spending a lot of money is the only way to weld faster. However, for those looking for some ways to save time on their welding projects, there are some ways to weld faster for certain projects. While it's not always a good idea to find a way to weld faster, there are situations when welding faster may produce a better product or a few simple changes can speed up the time on task. MIG Welders are extremely popular because they tend to cost less than TIG or Stick welders with comparable power and features, are extremely easy to learn, and can tackle a wide variety of projects. Since the filler metal is fed through the MIG welding torch, welders can use both hands to hold the torch steady rather than using one hand to add filler metal, as in TIG welding. The wire feeder also makes MIG welding up to four times faster. The MIG welding process uses an inert gas to shield the weld and to keep it free from impurities. This makes MIG welding very neat and easy to clean up since there isn't anything to chip away, which is typical for Stick welding. MIG welding can be used on a wide variety of materials such as aluminum and is also frequently used for automotive work. However, MIG also requires the purchase of shielding gas and generally requires materials that cost more when compared to other methods. Delivery of parts to the welding station in an organized and logical fashion is also a way to reduce welding costs. For example, one company was manufacturing concrete mixing drums. In the fabrication process, the company produced 10 parts for one section, then went on to make 10 parts of another drum section, etc. As pieces came off the line, they were put onto the floor of the shop. When it was time to weld, the operator had to hunt for the pieces needed and sort through them. When the outside welding expert pointed out the amount of time being wasted in this process, the company started to batch each one on a cart. In this way, the pieces needed to weld one drum were stored together and could easily be moved to the welding area. This type of scenario is also true for companies that may outsource parts to a vendor. Though it may cost more to have parts delivered in batches, it may save more in time than having to organize and search through parts to be able to get to the welding stage. How many times each piece is handled in the shop may be an eye-opener to reducing wasted time. To measure such an intangible as this, operators are asked to put a soapstone mark on the piece each time it is touched - some companies are surprised to find out how many times a part is picked up, transported and laid down in the manufacturing process. In the case of one company, moving the welding shop closer to the heat treatment station eliminated four extra times that the part was handled. Basically, handling a part as few times as possible and creating a more efficient production line or work cell will reduce overall costs. Searching for the best MIG Welders? We recommend Welding Supplies Direct & associated company TWS Direct Ltd is an online distributor of a wide variety of welding supplies, welding equipment and welding machine. We supply plasma cutters, MIG, TIG, ARC welding machines and support consumables to the UK, Europe and North America. - Listing Details

In the past 10 years, residential electricity prices have gone up by an average of 3% annually. By investing in a solar system, you are protected against unpredictable inflation rates from utility companies. If you are a business or homeowner with fluctuating cash flow, going solar also helps better forecast and manage your expenses. Studies have found that homes equipped with solar systems have higher property values and sell more quickly than homes without. Appraisers are increasingly taking solar into considerations when they value houses; and as solar become more mainstream, demand for properties with solar systems will only continue to grow. - Listing Details

In 2009 a new high technology R&D Centre was opened as part of the Company’s R&D strategy and one major development from this investment has been the introduction of Power Factor Correction and Flexible Voltage technology across a range of MMA. TIG and Plasma machines. Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology offers the user a host of benefits, not least in reducing power consumption. The requirement for less power also allows the user to weld at higher levels on a lower power supply - a real world advantage when you consider that the most prevalent power supply in the UK is just 13 Amps. Using GYS’s PFC equipped MMA machines will allow high duty cycle welding at 160amps (sufficient for 4mm rods) on a regular 13 Amp power supply, whereas normally one would expect to have to find a 16 Amp power supply. Normally a 160A machine without PFC, is capable of welding only 3.2mm electrodes at 125A using a 13 Amp fused plug. What is Power Factor Correction? - Listing Details
