Swift Current
Shielded Metal Arc Welding Shop 2
You will perform horizontal multi-pass and vertical downhill welds using various electrodes.
Shielded Metal Arc Welding Shop 1
You will develop your welding skills in the flat position and the horizontal positions.
Shielded Metal Arc Welding Theory
You will be introduced to the Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) process and study the types of power sources, electrical characteristics of welding circuits, and mild steel and low alloy electrodes.
Wire Feed Processes Shop 2
You will weld flat and vertical up on 3/8 mild steel V-groove butt joints, and weld around structural shapes using solid and flux cored wire in the flat position.
Wire Feed Processes Shop 1
You will setup and use wire feed equipment to weld mild steel with hard wire, flux cored, and metal cored wire. You will weld aluminum fillet welds.
Wire Feed Processes Theory
You will develop the knowledge required to safely select, setup and maintain power supply components, electrodes, flux, and shielding gases.
Oxy Fuel and Thermal Cutting Shop
You will use freehand and guided methods for cutting mild steel. You will perform straight cuts, bevel cuts and pierce holes in the plate. You will use a guide to do straight cuts, bevel cuts and cut circles from plate. You will perform plasma arc cutting and gouging, as well as air carbon arc gouging.
Oxy Fuel and Thermal Cutting Theory
You will develop the knowledge required to select, set up, operate, and maintain oxyfuel cutting, plasma arc cutting and air carbon arc cutting equipment.
Canadian Welding Bureau W47.1 Welder Qualification
You will complete the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) welder qualification W47.1 assessments using the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and flux-cored arc welding (FCAW) processes for the flat groove-fillet (1GF) assessment.
