The TIP TIG manual process offers numerous weld benefits and is far superior to the manual Tig process. The TIP TIG process lowers weld sensitivity and can provide superior weld quality and higher wire feed rates than many automated hot wire Tig welds. The process has been proven on all schedules of carbon and stainless steel and tested on inconel 625 and other alloys with great success. This process is helping the UA weld at a very high speed and the highest quality possible manually.
As a part of this class the Training Center would like to invite interested signatory contractors and customers to a demonstration on February 26th from 1:00 to 3:00 p. m. A lunch meet and greet will be hosted from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm. The demonstrations will be given by the UA instructors and the newly trained students. Please come out and look at this new exciting technology.
