Think you don't need fume collection for resistance welding? Think again
AWS Welding Digest
Resistance welding may not generate the volume of fumes created by gas metal arc or shielded metal arc welding, but capturing what's produced during this process must still take place. There are two basic approaches to handling RW emissions. The correct approach depends on the volume of weld fumes produced, the hazards associated with the chemical makeup of the fume, and the proximity of people to fume-creating processes.

A job weld done
Yakima Herald
Inside the Wapato High School agricultural mechanics shop, sparks flew, and teacher Rob Ford was putting out fires all morning. He was the man with answers to any question, from the critical — how to use a torch safely — to the mundane — where the bathroom was. In the organized chaos of the shop, students put to the test their skills using welding torches and grinding machines. No one's project would be perfect. But that was all right with Ford.

Does automation dumb-down the shop floor?
The Fabricator
Several years ago I spoke with an oxyfuel cutting expert who described the latest controls and how many previously manual steps in the setup process had been automated. He and I got to talking, and he asked what was behind metal fabrication's push toward automation. Was it about productivity, the lack of skilled labor, or both?

Reflecting on the progress of a lean manufacturing journey
The Fabricator
When you look in a mirror, you see your reflection in all its glory. Sometimes you are satisfied with that reflection, sometimes not. If you think of that reflection objectively, it becomes a data point, a statement of fact, and a basis upon which to assess improvement opportunities. You can, and should, apply the idea of reflection to your lean journey.

How It Works Small amount of air is drawn into the helmet.
Streams of air flow inside the helmet.
Face stream prevents lenses from fogging.
Air cools helmet and expels carbon dioxide.
Air dams block fumes from entering helmet.
No Cords or air hoses to deal with. Lightweight device reduces fatigue.

Chi Hi student welders vying for state title
WQOQ-TV
Some Chippewa Falls High School students are collaborating in what they call an "intense" welding competition, and they're confident in their creations. The team of three — Alex Welke, Braxton Bowe and Andy Olson — completed a snowmobile lift. The team and their supervisors are all extremely proud of their work, which will be presented to judges at the SkillsUSA regional competition at UW-Stout.
