Redressing the issue of growing skills gap
The welding industry across the globe, especially in the US, is projected to experience a dearth of skilled workforce, which in turn will significantly impact metal fabrication and manufacturing industries.
“Technological enhancements in torch angles, stick outs, and travel speeds can enable even entry-level operators to execute the job faster. These have also reduced the need for extensive training programs, thus enabling a better-finished product without sacrificing quality,” according to Gaurav.
Advent of new materials
The introduction and adoption of new materials used for welding purposes have driven the significant demand for new technologies. The use of these new materials helps in reducing the weight of the overall finished products, besides leading to lower product and production cost.
The introduction of these new materials has, no doubt, enhanced the overall quality of the final product. However, in the process, they also pose several challenges to the welding process. High-strength steel is prominently used in thinner sections during a welding operation and hence is more prone to cracks than mild steel.
Competitive landscape driving new technologies
The overall welding industry landscape is highly competitive, which is reflected in the several changes that the industry is experiencing in terms of the development of new equipment as well as advanced welding methodologies.
The trend of automation in the welding process has been in practice for several years. However, recently, the uptake of this new technology among welding equipment end-users has increased as it offers a competitive advantage.
The key vendors are as follows:
- Colfax
- Fronius
- ITW Welding
- Lincoln Electric
