How do they match: Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers

  • Align and clamp workpieces together, using rules, squares, or hand tools, or position items in fixtures, jigs, or vises.
  • Determine required equipment and welding methods, applying knowledge of metallurgy, geometry, and welding techniques.
  • Melt and apply solder along adjoining edges of workpieces to solder joints, using soldering irons, gas torches, or electric-ultrasonic equipment.
  • Melt and apply solder to fill holes, indentations, or seams of fabricated metal products, using soldering equipment.
