High-Quality Solutions for Complex Metal Shaping Needs
Precision welding services
MIG, TIG, Spot, & Stud Welding for Reliable Metal Assemblies
Expert welding services
Our welding services utilise MIG, TIG, spot, and stud welding techniques to deliver strong, precise metal joins for a wide range of industries. Each method is chosen to suit the specific material and application, ensuring robust assemblies and components. Working with aluminium, mild steel, and stainless steel, we produce durable welds that reflect the highest standards of workmanship.
Reliable Methods for Diverse Metal Fabrication Needs
Advanced welding techniques applications
Our welding processes employ advanced equipment and techniques to meet the unique demands of each project:
MIG welding
Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding uses a continuous wire feed into the weld pool, allowing for high material deposition. It is well-suited to welding most metal thicknesses. This process enables high travel speeds and is ideal where strength is essential.
Advantages
- Welding speeds significantly quicker than TIG welding
- High material deposition rate allows for larger welds
- Versatile across many different thicknesses
TIG welding
Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode, with the option to manually feed filler material into the weld pool when needed. It is ideal for welding thin to medium-thickness metals. The controlled nature of the process produces clean, precise weld profiles, minimising the need for post-weld dressing and making it particularly suitable for visible joints.
Advantages
- Precise weld profiles can be achieved
- Better heat control can reduce part distortion
- Neater welds require none/minimal dressing
Spot welding
Spot welding uses two non-consumable copper electrodes to pass an electrical current through layered materials while applying pressure. It is ideal for welding thin to medium-thickness metals. The process creates small, circular welds on overlapping components, making it particularly effective in situations where traditional welding techniques are unsuitable.
Advantages
- Joins material together with high speed
- Can join multiple layers of material together in one weld
- Creates strong welds in precise locations
Stud welding
Stud welding uses an electrical current to weld specialised fasteners directly to metal surfaces. It is suitable for all material thicknesses. The process allows fasteners to be securely attached in locations where conventional fixings may not be appropriate—particularly when the reverse side of the fastener is visible.
Advantages
- Fasteners not visible from opposing side
- No need to access opposing side when fixing
- Wide range of fasteners available
Each technique is meticulously selected to match the material properties and functional requirements of the project. By combining the right method with our expertise, we ensure optimal results for every join.
Precision & Consistency for High-Quality Results
Accuracy in welding processes
Our welding services offer exceptional accuracy, with tolerances ranging specific to each design with accuracy of up to +/-0.2mm depending on the application. This level of precision provides repeatable results, making it ideal for projects with strict quality demands. For larger production batches, we create custom welding jigs that ensure components are aligned perfectly during each weld. These jigs improve both speed and consistency, ensuring high-quality results across every piece.
Ensuring Strength, Durability, & Consistency
Quality control in welding services
Our welding services adhere to stringent quality control measures to ensure high performance and reliability:
These rigorous inspections, combined with our precision welding tolerances and custom jigs, ensure every weld delivers the durability, strength, and accuracy required for even the most complex applications.
