Changing the Mix
The changing power plant landscape involves a lot of new plant construction and conversion of older plants that are replacing their coal-fired boilers with natural gas boilers to retain the same power generation capacity – all of which is good news for welding shops that supply parts and assemblies for power plant construction and repair.
Wire and Flux Selection Guide for Submerged Arc Welding Applications
The Submerged Arc Welding guide from Hobart Brothers simplifies the selection of wires and flux for submerged arc welding, with features and benefits of each wire and recommendations for pairing the appropriate flux, along with suggested operating parameters for gaining optimal results.
Welding Helmet with Lens Technology for Multiple Welding Jobs in Power Generation Work
The VIKING PAPR 3350 Welding Helmet from Lincoln Electric has an optional extended battery pack and 4C lens technology that gives operators a clear and undistorted view of the welding arc and puddle to maximize control and minimize defects.
Processes for Welding Tanks and Pressure Vessels
Using the best possible pressure vessel welding process is critical for durable welds that are free from defects. What is the best process for pressure vessel fabrication? Here is a closer look at many of the potential factors to consider.
Eight Ways to Improve Welding Productivity Using a Weld Camera
An automated welding environment can be too congested or dangerous for operators to directly monitor the welding tip while under operation. How can they properly monitor the welding process remotely?
