Welding industry – 6 ways to save energy

Welding industry – 6 ways to save energy

The energy crisis is real, and it is here now. It affects the energy-intensive welding industry because welding refers to the uniting or fusing of pieces by using heat and/or compression so that the pieces form a continuum, thus consuming plenty of energy. How can we cut energy consumption in the welding industry? Unless we're prepared to weld by candlelight, we cannot simply refuse to weld until the energy crisis is over. But there is a solution, small changes to daily work can result in significant energy savings in the long run.
