FE0116 : Cold Welding

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Cold Welding. It covers the comparison between cold welding with conventional welding methods; the principles, equipment and tools for cold welding; the surface preparation techniques and the methods for mechanical cleaning, chemical cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning; the cold welding process variables, defects and their prevention; and the cold welding in aerospace engineering, electronics and electrical industries, automotive industry, jewelry and precious metals and medical and biotechnology fields.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the cold welding in nuclear power plants, joining wires in telecommunications, underwater cold welding techniques and emerging applications and innovations; the surface preparation and bonding process; testing and evaluating cold welded joints and implementing safety and best practices in cold welding; the latest developments in cold welding techniques, nano-scale cold welding research, role of AI and automation in cold welding; the metal 3D printing, hybrid additive-subtractive processes, repair and joining of 3D-printed parts and future implications for manufacturing; the environmental and economic aspects of cold welding; the industry standards and compliance requirements, ASTM, ISO, and other regulatory bodies; and the quality control protocols.
