Welding and joining technology is fundamental to engineering and manufacturing. Without the ability to make strong and durable connections between materials it would not be possible to produce the many different items upon which we all rely in our everyday lives, from the very large (buildings, pipelines, trains and bridges) to the very small (medical implants and electronic devices).
TWI has its roots in welding and joining technology, and over many years has been responsible for developing and encouraging the adoption of new techniques and best practice in all sectors of industry.
TWI's welding and joining expertise is broad, ranging from fusion welding processes such as arc, laser, electron beam and resistance welding; brazing; and soldering to non-fusion techniques such as friction and ultrasonic welding, and diffusion and adhesive bonding.
TWI also has specialist knowledge in welding and joining a variety of materials including metals, plastics, composites and ceramics, and has even developed processes to weld wood.
