TIP TIG has one of the most versatile and unique tig welding processes on the market. Their technology takes the traditional tig process and elevates it through high deposition rates and increased wire feed rates. The result? Productivity benefits such as faster TIP TIG weld speeds and increased weld quality in the right application.
So where is this technology used? For any application where you are performing traditional tig welding with filler metal, the TIP TIG has a place. Common applications include fillet welds, pipe welds, tank manufacturing, heat exchangers, and much more.
Aerospace manufacturing is a high-technology industry that must attest to stringent quality management at every level of the manufacturing process. This industry produces aircraft, guided missiles, space vehicles, aircraft engines, propulsion units, and other related parts such as work holding fixtures and structural supports. The use of Invar 36 (Ni) for structural supports in mold making for aircraft components is very common. The TIP TIG process has been heavily embraced on this alloy for numerous reasons including distortion control, interpass cleaning, porosity, and sidewall fusion.
This industry often looks for the best technology and quality in solutions. TIP TIG helps to meet ever-changing specifications, standards, and production flows. TIP TIG technology has recently been used at SpaceX – on some main parts of the Starship Spacecraft and Super Heavy Rocket.
These industries largely deal with sanitary welds on stainless steel. Welds on their equipment and structures much pass strict standards to avoid contaminating product that is contained or passing through. Any manufacturing process such as these - that requires polishing and finishing to food-grade standards - will benefit from the controlled bead profile attained with the TIP TIG process.
Applications include the welding of:
Nowhere in the world is the selection and monitoring of welding processes more stringent than the nuclear industry. The TIP TIG process has been used globally as a solution to complex welding applications and strict nuclear code requirements.
The nuclear world of welding brings many complex alloys into consideration such as the many variations of Stainless Steel, Chrome and Nickel Alloys used in both commercial and military projects throughout North America and globally.
Perhaps the most popular industry for Stainless Steel, Duplex, Super Duplex, and Inconel Alloys due to these highly corrosive environments, the TIP TIG process has been used extensively as a leading welding process by some of the largest companies in the oil, gas, and petrochemical world.
The demand for qualified welders in this sector combined with the need for X-ray quality, ASME code quality welds, have driven our clients to look for the most efficient and effective processes available on the market. The answer to their requirements has been TIP TIG! The reason has been, the ease of use and repeatable quality of the TIP TIG systems.
Whether your company is involved in the fossil fuel, nuclear, or renewable energy market there is no question you will have an alloy that will benefit from the lowest heat input welding process with the highest weld quality. The width of this market is unrivaled in opportunities as there are many uses from, onsite pipe welding with the portable TIP TIG system to complex prefab of turbines and supporting equipment with our manual TIP TIG systems.
TIP TIG has been involved globally with many of the biggest suppliers of equipment and labor in the world.
In these complex industries, TIG delivers exactly what you need - the highest deposit rates with the best quality in the industry.
