  2. Gas tungsten arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_tungsten_arc_welding

    GTAW weld area. Manual gas tungsten arc welding is a relatively difficult welding method, due to the coordination required by the welder. Similar to torch welding, GTAW normally requires two hands, since most applications require that the welder manually feed a filler metal into the weld area with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other.

  3. TIP TIG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TIP_TIG

    TIP TIG welding torch. TIP TIG is a subset of gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), using a mechanism called filler wire agitation to enhance molten weld pool dynamics. This agitation has been found to enhance the weld puddle fluidity and release evolving gases, reducing the chances of inclusions and porosity, and also separate impurities.

  4. Orbital welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_welding

    Orbital welding has almost always exclusively been carried out by the Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG / GTAW) technique using non-consumable electrodes, with additional cold-wire feed where necessary. The easy control of heat input makes TIG-welding the ideal welding method for fully orbital welding of tubes with specialist orbital welding heads, that ...

  7. Gas metal arc welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_metal_arc_welding

    The typical GMAW welding gun has a number of key parts—a control switch, a contact tip, a power cable, a gas nozzle, an electrode conduit and liner, and a gas hose. The control switch, or trigger, when pressed by the operator, initiates the wire feed, electric power, and the shielding gas flow, causing an electric arc to be struck.

  8. Helicopter flight controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_flight_controls

    To increase or decrease overall lift requires that the controls alter the angle of attack for all blades collectively by equal amounts at the same time, resulting in ascent, descent, acceleration and deceleration. A typical helicopter has three flight control inputs: the cyclic stick, the collective lever, and the anti-torque pedals. [2]

  9. Welding power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding_power_supply

    A welding power supply is a device that provides or modulates an electric current to perform arc welding. [1] There are multiple arc welding processes ranging from Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) to inert shielding gas like Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) or Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW).
