5 Week Course
2009
We will schedule these classes
as requested with a minimum of 3
registered students
All processes (GMAW, GTAW, & SMAW) will be held the same evening.
Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW-MIG)
Course Description: The Gas Metal Arc Welding course is designed to teach welders about arc welding safety and the gas metal arc welding process (GMAW-MIG). This course last two weeks (80 hours) involving approximately 70 hours of booth instruction, and 10 hours of lecture and practice.
Course Content:
• Learn fundamentals of GMAW (MIG).
• Instruction on the metal arc transfer of short circuiting, globular,
spray, and pulsed.
• How various shielding gasses affect gas metal arc welding.
• Individual booth time will be dedicated to welding on 11 ga. and 3/8” mild
steel plate.
• Problems associated with welding situations and how to correct them.
• Maintenance of GMAW equipment.
• Welding Symbols.
• Oxy-Acetylene safety and hands on cutting.
Course Objective:
Each student will have an understanding of how the GMAW process works and be
able to perform a fillet and groove weld in all positions. Read and draw
fillet welding symbols and produce a quality cut with the oxy-acetylene torch.
At the completion of the course each student will receive a certificate.
