Electric Welding #263760

Resistance welding presents in its various branches some of the most interesting scientific and mechanical problems to be found anywhere. Spot-welding — butt-welding — line-welding all occupy a particular place in our manufacturing plants today, and new uses are being constantly found. In the gathering and arranging of the material used in this book, particular care has been taken to classify and place various subjects together as far as possible. This is not only convenient for reference purposes, but enables the reader to easily compare different makes and types of apparatus. In most cases, the name of the maker of each piece of apparatus is mentioned in the description in order to save the time of those seeking information. No time or pains have been spared in the endeavor to make this the most comprehensive book on electric welding equipment and practice, ever published. Every possible source of informa tion known to the long-experienced editor has been drawn upon and properly credited. It is hoped that this book will prove a permanent record of electric welding as it is today, and also be an inspiration and source of information for those engaged in practice, research or development.
