Butt Welding Edge Preparation

Butt welding is a welding technique used to connect parts which are nearly parallel and don't overlap
Butt welding can be achieved through an automated process, or by hand. The joint is made by a process of gradual preheating of the two components, and then placing them together under a certain pressure.
Welding processes used in butt welding can include TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) or MIG (Metal Inert Gas).
The process is ideal for joining two components either as a finished item, or for pre-fabrication or producing special fittings.
Butt welding is proven to be a highly economical welding option as it reduces manufacturing times and does not require the use of additional end fittings.
