In this practical workshop, we will show you how easy MAG welding is and how you can implement this technique in your projects!
MAG welding (Metal Active Gas welding) is a popular welding technique that allows for easy and straightforward great results. At Happylab, MAG welding is performed with a mixed gas of Argon and CO2. It is suitable for welding simple or low alloy steel (like structural steel).
In this practical training, you will learn:
- Introduction and basics of MAG welding,
- How to optimally set up the welding equipment,
- How to prepare and finish the materials,
- How to handle the torch in practice to achieve good welding results,
- Practicing welding seams in different positions,
- Identifying sources of danger and how to avoid errors,
- And the use of the plasma cutter.
To use the MAG welding equipment independently after the workshop, you need both this training and the General Safety Instruction (GSI Metal). The order in which you complete them is up to you. You do not have to have completed GSI Metall to attend the workshop.
