Micro-TIG welding is the ideal service if you are looking for small, intricate welds that can't be performed using normal TIG welding, and need to reduce the risk of warping in the heat effected zone.

The system uses gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) with a microscope for up-close vision. Wire diameters as small as .005 inches and welding currents starting at 2/10’s of an amp allow the operator to lay beads of welding on sharp, thin edges without leaving undercuts next to the weld bead.

The low amperage inputs and small diameter wires also decrease warping and the heat affected zone (HAZ) on thin inserts and cores.

All micro-TIG welding jobs are pre-heated to ensure the best quality welding. Failure to pre-heat can cause a variety of problems including increased residual stress, excess distortion, and hydrogen embrittlement.

Come see the difference and experience the benefits micro-TIG welding provides over traditional TIG welding for your small inserts and cores. Contact our sales department at (616) 248-9353 or email us for more information.
