We join tubes by MIG Welding or Solid State (Friction) Welding. For high volume productions, we employ not only robotic welding, but also automatic fixing jigs.
Metal Inert Gas welding is a common welding process officially known as Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). It involves using an electric arc to create heat and join metals together. An inert or semi-inert gas (commonly Argon, CO?, or a mix) shields the molten weld pool from atmospheric contamination. MIG process is not suitable for very thin metals.
We can also join tubing using solid-state pulse welding technology, a process that joins two workpieces under pressure at a temperature below their melting point. The bonding occurs through the diffusion of atoms at the interface of the materials. This method is ideal for applications requiring the joining of dissimilar metals or fine surface finishes, as it eliminates the need for melting or faying.
We also use laser welding for stainless steel tube.
