Learning to Weld and Other Subjects

Hey there! Have you ever wanted to learn how to weld metal? Last year, I decided I would like to learn how to weld so I could start to manufacture homemade go-karts for my children and their friends. Unfortunately, I didn't have a clue where to start. I reached out to my brother-in-law Steve who works in the industrial and manufacturing sector. What a guy he is. He let me visit his workshop so I could learn all I needed to know about how the professionals in the industrial sector operate. I decided to start this blog to help other novice welders and industrial enthusiasts.

Treatment Techniques Used on Metal Pipes Bent by the Induction Process

Posted on August 18, 2017

Bending metal pipes is not a walk in the park. Even though they are strong and highly workable, metals can snap, break and crack when bent using poor techniques. This is why you should consider having your bends done by a fabricator specialising in induction pipe bending. More specifically, you should go for a fabricator with good post-bending treatment techniques for you to achieve the best results. Since the process involves localised heating with high-frequency electric current, the fabricator must employ high-tech cooling and post-treatment techniques.
