Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG welding) TIG welding is a widely used method for titanium alloy welding. In this process, tungsten serves as the electrode, and argon is used as the shielding gas. The electric arc melts the joint between the titanium alloy plates to form the weld. TIG welding offers high-quality welds and aesthetic, smooth seams.
Metal inert gas welding (MIG welding) Compared to TIG welding, MIG welding uses a consumable electrode (welding wire) and argon as the shielding gas. This method is ideal for welding thicker titanium alloy plates and provides higher welding efficiency.
Laser welding Laser welding uses a high-energy beam to create deep, narrow welds, making it suitable for welding thin-walled materials. This method provides high-quality welds, high welding efficiency, and minimizes weld distortion.
