Hard Skills
AdvancedMIG/MAG Welding (GMAW)The process of using a continuous solid wire electrode and a shielding gas to join metals, primarily used for its speed and versatility in industrial manufacturing.
ExpertTIG Welding (GTAW)A high-precision arc welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld, typically requiring manual filler metal application.
IntermediateTechnical Blueprint ReadingThe ability to interpret engineering drawings, welding symbols, and structural specifications to execute precise fabrication.
IntermediateMetallurgical KnowledgeUnderstanding the properties of different metals and shielding gases to determine appropriate heat settings and gas flow rates.
IntermediateIndustrial Safety ComplianceStrict adherence to OSHA or local safety regulations, including proper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and fire prevention protocols.
IntermediateQuality Control InspectionThe practice of identifying weld defects such as porosity, undercut, or lack of fusion through visual and non-destructive testing.
