The History of Welding

When driving your car modifications or look at the fixture on the street or open your microwave, chances are that there is something in one of the elements that are welded. These products and others were part of the weld for more years than you can imagine.

Welding actually started a long time the Middle Ages. Many artifacts have been found since the Bronze Age. These small boxes that were welded together with what is called a knee joints, no one really know what you're used to, but it was important at that time.

The Egyptians also a variety of tools by welding pieces of iron together. Perhaps this is what Maxwell Hammer comes later? Who can say! Then the growth of the Middle Ages many people were able to use the forge iron. Various changes were made to march the glue used to date was developed.

There were several important inventions of 1800, which affect the welding include:

* The invention of acetylene by an Englishman named Edmund Davy.
* Welding and gas cutting of steel known way to integrate pieces of iron together.
* Arc Light was a very popular part of welding after the electric generator was not known.
* Arc and resistance has become another popular feature of welding.
* Nicholas Benardos received a patent for welding in 1885 and 1887 from the U.S. and the UK.
* Axis Coffin received a U.S. patent for an arc welding process.

Since the 1800's a lot more patents and inventions, aimed at creating more ways to make weld, but one of the greatest needs would come much later, during World War II, because the procedure is necessary with arms in their hands. Due to the demand welding firms became the main American and Europe after the war must welding machines and electrodes to go with them.

During the war people really got a chance to look at what worked and pipes have become a popular way to work. So much so that in 1919 the first American Welding Society began. This non-profit organization, came directly from a group of men who called themselves the military gluing Committee Emergency Fleet Corporation (Source: Miller welding).

In 1950 and 1960 was an important time for bonding, as the connection process using CO2 discovered variant of this type of sealant used in the inert gas has become very popular in the 1960's, because it led to all kinds of arc.

There have been some improvements in the welding trade for many years and currently the process added two field friction welding and lasers. These two have created a more specialized field, and hence more opportunities for learning.

I wonder about the laser welding, that those people who use proved to be a huge source of heat, which can actually welding and metal and nonmetal objects.
