The different types of Welding
Altogether, there are approximately 100 types of welding. When you learn to weld, you will learn the differences among them. Differences are due to the molecular nature of the materials, required precision, and environment in which the welding takes place. For example, a sculptor might use a gas flame to weld two pieces of metal in an open-air setting, while an astronaut might use an electron beam to weld thermoplastics when working on a satellite in space.
