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

  • Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers

  • Production Line Solderer
  • Production Line Welder
  • Production Technician
  • Production Welder

  • Use hand-welding, flame-cutting, hand-soldering, or brazing equipment to weld or join metal components or to fill holes, indentations, or seams of fabricated metal products.

  • Preheat workpieces prior to welding or bending, using torches or heating furnaces.
  • Prepare all material surfaces to be welded, ensuring that there is no loose or thick scale, slag, rust, moisture, grease, or other foreign matter.
  • Check grooves, angles, or gap allowances, using micrometers, calipers, and precision measuring instruments.
  • Connect and turn regulator valves to activate and adjust gas flow and pressure so that desired flames are obtained.
  • Melt and apply solder to fill holes, indentations, or seams of fabricated metal products, using soldering equipment.
  • Repair products by dismantling, straightening, reshaping, and reassembling parts, using cutting torches, straightening presses, and hand tools.

  • Clean production equipment.
  • Clean workpieces or finished products.
  • Cut industrial materials in preparation for fabrication or processing.
  • Determine metal or plastic production methods.
  • Heat material or workpieces to prepare for or complete production.
  • Mark products, workpieces, or equipment with identifying information.
  • Measure dimensions of completed products or workpieces to verify conformance to specifications.
  • Melt metal, plastic, or other materials to prepare for production.
  • Monitor equipment operation to ensure that products are not flawed.
  • Mount materials or workpieces onto production equipment.
  • Select production equipment according to product specifications.
