PROCESSES: GMAW – MIG Welding – used widely in the fabrication industry. It is the

most commonly used welding process in many fabrication industries.

FCAW – used in the construction industry on both thin and thick steels because of it’s ease of

usage and high productivity rate. It can be used in many other welding industries as well.
