We’re proud to provide high-quality weldment services as part of our full range of offerings.
A weldment is a unit created by welding a series of pieces. These components are typically made of metal or plastic. Welding is a fabrication process that melts and bonds these materials with high heat, allowing them to cool and harden. Welding differs from techniques like soldering and brazing, which use lower temperatures and don’t melt the base material.
Welded joints are stronger than fastened and bolted joints. Since welded joints are fused, they are less likely to loosen or develop leaks over time. This makes them ideal for high-pressure applications where safety is a concern, like building construction. They’re also durable enough to fabricate bins and tracks for conveyor systems, providing optimal support for material handling applications.
Welded joints are usually less expensive than bolted joints, requiring less labor and time. Weldments don’t typically require bolts or additional materials that increase the cost of the joint. That also means no generated waste, making welding an eco-friendly method.
Weldments are often lighter than bolted joints, as they don’t have the added weight of bolts. This makes them ideal for applications like construction, where weight is a concern.
Weldments are faster to construct than bolted joints since you don’t need to thread bolts into place. Automated equipment also helps welders complete projects efficiently.
People in various industries rely on weldments, including construction workers, metal frame manufacturers, automobile engineers and more. Weldments can be used for the following applications and others:
People often use the terms “welding” and “fabrication” interchangeably, but there is a difference between the two. Fabrication is the entire process of metal manufacturing, while welding is one stage of the fabrication process.
Other fabrication steps may include design, cutting, bending, assembly and finishing. A company may complete all fabrication processes in one place. Alternatively, it may outsource specific tasks to other professionals.
