Design and fabrication of mechanized welding traction system / Muhamad Hairi Hamid
One of the methods to mechanize a welding production is to perform weld with the aid of a mechanized traction device. The traction device may either carry the welding torch or the workpiece and moving it at constant speed along a precise path. Some common applications are for submerged arc welding,...
