WELDING SHOP

Lab Incharge: Dr. Sachin Gupta

Lab Technician: Mr. Surender singh

Lab Overview:

A welding shop is a facility where metals and other materials are joined together using various welding processes. These processes utilize heat, pressure, or both to create a permanent bond, often with the addition of filler materials. Common welding techniques include electric arc welding, gas welding, resistance welding, and friction welding.
