structure. Welding plays a big part in metal fabrication. Welding is the use of various fusion processes to repair or create metal structures by joining metal together. Extreme heat temperatures are used to weld the materials. Generally using open flame, electric arc or laser light. In the 1800’s major breakthroughs in welding were made. The use of open flame welding (acetylene) was a big milestone in the history of welding since…
Introduction The process of welding developed from Blacksmithing. In the 19th century, Edmund Davy discovered an impacting thing for the welding industry, which was the way we know welding is done now, with flames. To me the way that was used back then just seems like a waste of time, but as time flies by many things change by so much. There is many different types of welding method. Each welder may prefer a method over another. Search story Welding has been around for a long time, therefore it…
I am researching is manufacturing welding. I chose this occupation because I enjoy working with hands-on objects. Manufacturing welders produce a product that people will buy, or they can also identify production problems. Welding is the easiest way to permanently connect two pieces of metal. Their work activities may include controlling machinery, operating vehicles or equipment, and assembling metal or plastic parts. Welders’ tasks may include tending welding machines, inspecting measurements,…

Low carbon steel contains a low carbon content and is therefore…
Welding There are 5 main types of welding process commonly used in industrial welding. They are; Gas Metal Arc Welding, oxy acetylene, Gas Tungsten arc welding, flux core, and Shielded metal arc welding. All welding procedures are important and useful for a variety of things. Welding is the process by which two or more pieces of metal are joined or metal has material added to it to fill a hole. Welding process work by heating the base metal, or the material being on, to a liquid state. They…
employment are part of the cultural framework that make up the Management Plan at The Lincoln Electric Company. Many other benefits and incentives were implemented over the decades, which contribute to the success and culture of the company, such as a welding school, promotion from within, and the Employees'…
Problem Identification and Issues Franklin Fan Company is a manufacturer and distributor of electric fans. It was founded by two engineers, Dan Block and Ed Spriggs, one an electrical engineer, and the other a mechanical engineer. Located in Block’s garage, the company showed slow and steady growth for seven years, however, when it was shifted to old, abandoned meat-packing warehouse on Chicago’s South Side, the company’s led to an explosive growth of the business. Due to increased space for…
Pipeline Welding Technician Pipeline welders work to join and repair tubular products and metallic pipe components. This is done for the construction of buildings, structures, and stand-alone pipelines. Pipes are usually set up in fixed positions which make welding them very difficult. Pipeline welders must be very skilled and well-trained to get the job done. Things like staying warm during the winter and preparing your next meal would not be possible without pipeline welders. They use their…
Throughout the Bronze and Iron Ages, people have discovered a useful process, we now use today, called welding. Many do not realize how important welding truly is in our world, even history, but when anyone is looking or walking around, there’s welding everywhere you go. They’re many types of welding, with different features and processes used on an object or material, that are opaque to your eyes. Oxygen acetylene (OAW) is one of the most used welds compared to others. It's used in our…
Case analysis that summarizes my understanding of the culture of the Lincoln Electric Company Lincoln Electric Company is an American multinational and global manufacturer of welding products, arc welding consumables, plasma and oxy-fuel cutting equipment and robotic welding systems. John C. Lincoln founded the company in 1895 with only 200dollas as a capital investment to produce electric motors he had designed. Lincoln Electric’s business model has been listed as one of the strongest studied…
