0032 - Welding Workshops

En conmemoración del Mes de la Herencia Hispana, este taller brindará a los participantes una introducción a los fundamentos de la soldadura MIG. Los asistentes aprenderán sobre seguridad, equipos, configuración de la máquina y técnicas básicas de soldadura, además de adquirir experiencia práctica en el manejo de la pistola de soldadura y la aplicación de cordones de soldadura.

What You’ll Learn:

• MIG Machine Breakdown: Get to know the parts of the welder, from the power source to the gun. Learn how to set wire speed, voltage, and shielding gas for optimal results.
• Safety Like a Pro: Learn the essential safety practices for MIG welding — protect your eyes, your lungs, and your workspace.
• Metal Prep & Fit-Up: Discover how to prep your material for clean, strong welds and avoid rookie mistakes.
• Run That Bead: Strike your first arc, control your puddle, and start laying down beads with guided practice on flat joints and fillets.
• Troubleshooting & Technique: Learn how to recognize and fix common problems like porosity, undercut, and inconsistent welds.

Step into the precision world of Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW/TIG) — where skill meets finesse, and clean, flawless welds are the name of the game. In this immersive, hands-on course, you'll learn to tame the arc and wield the torch like a true metal artisan.

What You’ll Learn:

• TIG Setup & Components: Understand your machine, torch, tungsten electrodes, shielding gas, and filler rods — and how they all work together.

• Safety & Workspace Prep: TIG requires attention to detail — and that starts with safety. Learn how to protect yourself and create the ideal welding environment.

• Torch Control & Arc Starting: Learn the rhythm and coordination of hand-feeding filler metal, managing your heat input, and initiating the arc without contamination.

• Weld Like an Artist: Practice running beads on mild steel and stainless — flat, clean, and controlled — with expert guidance every step of the way.

• Troubleshooting for Perfection: Identify common TIG issues like tungsten contamination, arc wander, and poor gas coverage — and learn how to fix them fast.

This no-nonsense, hands-on course will launch you into the world of Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) with four hours of focused training. Whether you're a total rookie or just rusty, you’ll walk away knowing how to safely run beads, read the arc, and burn rod like you’ve been doing it for years.

🔥 Here’s What You’ll Learn:

• Gear Up & Stay Safe: Master the essentials of PPE, machine setup, and safe work practices. Learn how to avoid burns, flashes, and bad habits before they start.
• SMAW Essentials: Understand how stick welding works, what’s actually inside a welding rod, and how to match rods to materials and projects.
• Striking & Maintaining the Arc: Practice techniques for consistent arc starts and smooth weld flow. Say goodbye to sticking and splatter chaos.
• Weld Bead Techniques: Run fillet and flat beads on mild steel with live coaching — learn how to read the puddle and control your travel speed.
• Troubleshooting & Tips: Spot bad welds before they fail. Fix porosity, undercut, arc blow, and other beginner pitfalls on the fly.
