Welding is a process of joining two similar or dissimilar metals by fusion, with or without the application of pressure and with or without the use of filler metals. The fusion of metal takes place by means of heat. The heat may be obtained from an electric arc, electric resistance, chemical reaction, friction, or radiant energy.
