Training for Welding Certification

When committing to attend a welding trade school, an individual is looking to learning the different types of welding training practices. These include ARC welding, MIG welding, TIG welding, and the various subsets of each of these types; all types of welding are taught at New ¹ú²ú¸£Àû¼§ School of Trades, New ¹ú²ú¸£Àû¼§, PA Campus.

  • TIG Welding– A process generally used for welding together thinner sections of stainless steel as well as other metals like copper, aluminum, and magnesium. This process is often favored for the level of control that the welder has, which can lead to stronger, higher-quality welds in the end.
  • MIG Welding– This process is preferred for its versatility as well as its speed and how easy it is to learn compared to other techniques, like TIG welding and arc welding.
  • Arc Welding– This form relies on a high-energy power supply to create the electric arc, which is the breakdown of a gas that produces the ongoing discharge of plasma needed to melt the materials together. Its low cost and the fact that many of its products have a wide range of applications make this one of the most commonly used methods.

In the Combination Welding program at NCST, students learn everything that is prevalent in the job market. MIG, TIG, stick, pipe, nonferrous metals like aluminum and stainless, and flux core are the types of welding covered. Blueprint reading, fabrication, grinding and welding math are added in for a more complete experience.
