As a welder, you'll need to know how to convert between standard and metric measurements. Try this activity to practice converting between these two measurements. A conversion chart is provided to help you complete this work.

Explore welding electricity fundamentals including electron theory, parts of a circuit, welding power sources, and types of current.

We’ll explore why everyone should reduce the waste they produce in the welding shop. We'll also demonstrate some ways to reduce waste as you work.

Robotic welding allows welders to create more consistent and higher quality welds. But, it requires you to understand the terminology associated with its programs. Watch this module to review terminology associated with robotic arc welding and the weaving process.

In this activity we’ll explain what a title block is and how to read the information it holds.

In this activity, we'll examine some common discontinuities associated with GMAW welding and review ways to prevent these problems from happening.

How to set up the GTAW welding unit

You’ll explore how to use Touch Sensing to do a one directional search with a Fanuc Robot and offset of the robot’s programmed path.

We’ll explore touch sense fundamentals, touch sense commands, and break down a touch sense program.

Locating Features on a Drawing by Zone

In this interactive and animated object, learners examine orthographic projection and the Glass Box Theory. Front, side, and top view development is demonstrated with pictorial views of each object to help develop 2D to 3D visualization skills.

GTAW Setup Guide

In this activity, we'll examine some common discontinuities associated with SMAW welding and review ways to prevent these problems from happening.
