NDE is a general term used to identify all methods that permit evaluation of welds and adjacent areas without destroying their usefulness. Here the following basic NDE methods will be discussed: Visual Penetrant Magnetic particle Radiographic Ultrasonic It should be noted that NDE does not eliminate the need for destructive testing but rather complements […]
Stainless steel is the leading metal in environmental manufacturing. Compared to others, it's considered one of the most environmentally friendly for use in construction because of its favorable rankings with high recycled content, the potential for product reuse, durability, maintenance requirements, impact on energy and water consumption, and influence on indoor quality and light. Openex […]
The use of laser technology has become synonymous with precision, and for good reason. Laser cutting, for example, is accurate and versatile, able to produce nearly any shape in a variety of metals. Its range of unique attributes surpasses waterjet cutting, die cutting, and other thermal methods, proving transformative in industrial manufacturing. How does the […]

The most popular welding processes used in metal fabrication include gas metal arc welding(GMAW), flux-cored arc welding (FCAW), shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), oxyacetylene welding (OAW), and torch or oxyfuel brazing (TB). The two most popular thermal cutting processes are oxyacetylene cutting (OAW) and plasma arc cutting (PAC). Welders, like […]
Assembly - the action of putting together individual or partially assembled units to build a complete product. Base metal - the sheet of metal that is to be cut, bent, or punched. Bending - the process of applying pressure to specific areas of the base metal to achieve the desired shape. Blanking - removing a piece from the entirety […]
