In this interactive object, learners follow steps to assemble a wire feed welding torch or gun.

The learner will identify the steps and proper techniques for installing a wire spool on a welding machine.

This module will guide you thru the use of welding coupons in the welding process.

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

In this learning activity you'll gain tips for successfully completing welding assignments.

In this interactive object, learners read an explanation of the electrodes used for welding with the GMAW and FCAW processes. In two matching exercises, students test their knowledge of classification and specification numbers.

Learners will follow general tips and tricks for improving their basic welding technique.

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.

The learner will gain an understanding of how a robot uses welding instructions to perform tasks. This learning activity includes video.

Step inside this activity to view a 360° virtual safety tour of the FVTC Welding Labs.

In this activity you'll identify several hazards in a welding environment.

Robotic welding is an increasingly popular tool used in industrial welding applications. Knowing how to program the robot is key. Explore how to improve your programming skills by using calls and unconditional jumps in this learning activity.

Robotic welding is an increasingly popular tool used in industrial welding applications. Knowing how to program the robot is key. Explore how to improve your programming skills by using if-then-else, calls, unconditional jumps, and counters in this learning activity.

In this interactive object, the learner reads an explanation of how various shielding gases are used in GMAW and FCAW. An exercise completes the activity.

Identify and learn more about the parts of a welding torch, cables, and a welding machine.

In this animated and interactive object, learners follow steps that begin with choosing the correct drive roll and include feeding the electrode wire from the spool to the welding gun.

Learners view wire feed power sources ranging from 110-volt, single phase units to 460-volt, three-phase units. A description and photos of each are provided.
