Glen believes these skills should be upheld and maintained by all metal fabricators. It doesn’t matter whether you are a sheet metal worker, a platter, boilermaker, fabricator or an iron worker. These geometric construction techniques should be passionately pursued to maintain the intellectual knowledge when it comes to marking out on sheet plate surfaces. Geometric development and marking out skills are not just required by metal fabricators on the shop floor but are also a valuable tool which can be used by programmers and CNC operators who operate CNC cutting equipment such as Laser cutters, Plasma Cutters & water jet cutters. The best programmers and operators of CNC cutting equipment are fabricators from the shop floor who have learnt CAD skills and can use their intellectual trade knowledge to push design limits to the edge. With the outbreak of the COVID19 virus and the impact on the fabrication industry let’s create Onshoring by up skilling our fabrication workforce. All of the basic fabrication skills need to be brought back into fabrication training, let us create the foundation and then move into understanding CAD systems and CNC programing. The greater the knowledge and skills that tradesman can become equipped with the greater chance we have to “MAKE THE FABRICATION TRADE GREAT AGAIN”.

You may find this video useful if you are working in the Fabrication trade or related engineering trades.
There may also be a use for such a tool in many engineering workshops where it is required to capture evidence for traceability recording. Engineering Traceability The GoPro mounted to dial indicator assists with capturing evidence for identifying that the correct work sequence is being followed. The camera can be mounted above workers so it is not intrusive or can be used up close so specific evidence can be captured. The GoPro mounted to dial indicator can capture video or can take time lapse still photos over a set period. The advantage of time lapse photos is that less hard drive space will be required than if the go pro was recording video. This is the same if storing to a cloud as opposed to physical hard drive. Take note that the GoPro Hero 8 can live stream so these images can be sent straight to the cloud as the engineering work is taking place. Additional use for such a tool is that once the images are captured the digital files can be reviewed to improve sequence of tasks, this will provide ways to streamline the manufacturing process. Training videos can also be produced to reflect required in house changes & improvements to production. This training video was made in house by North Metro TAFE lecturing staff. The GoPro mount to the magnetic base of a dial indicator was made to assist Fabrication & Welding staff with their training delivery. The magnetic base is useful for attaching a GoPro camera to various types of fixed plant machinery and gives an up close perspective that can be discussed in class. The advantages of such a tool can provide a close view of cutting and mechanical movements of machinery which assist students in understanding cutting and bending processes. The GoPro mounted to dial indicator also assists in regard to safe work practises on specific machinery through classroom discussion around potential issues such as crushing & pinch points before the live work takes place.

This simple video show the finished weld of the boiler end plates. The end Plate is 3mm which sits on 80 Nominal Bore pipe, the wall thicknes of pipe is of a similar thicknes. Note there is a second 3mm plate tack welded into the inside of the pipe. The second plate has the same hole pattern as the external plate with slightly smaller hole diameter, this gives the front view of the locomotive a stronger presence. Note these plates were welded using the GTAW process, you choose the process you want to weld with which is dependant on skill level, for secondary school students i fing the GMAW / Mig process to be more appropriate. Only use tig welding to weld up the locomotive if the student has the skillset to do so.

These techniques will help and assist all welders when it comes to setting up a tig welding plant to weld successfully. The tungsten preparation shown are either ball end for welding aluminium or ground to a point which is required when welding carbon steel and all other metals. Explanation is also given which circuit setting is appropriate for the metal which is to be welded. TIG stands for Tungsten Inert Gas, which is also known as the GTAW process which stands for Gas Tungsten arc welding. The GTAW / Tig process use Pure Argon gas as the shielding gas to protect the arc from the atmosphere, Argon is an inert gas. In this video we are looking at Tungsten preparation for tig welding different metals. We will discuss the 2 types of Tungsten preparations and there applications. The grinding will be performed on a bench grinder and note we only use the face of the grinding wheel not the sides. The sharp point being prepared on this Tungsten is for welding all metals except aluminium. When welding with this preparation, make sure you weld with DC-ve polarity . If we welded with DC+ve polarity we would overheat and melt the tungsten, so ensure you are on DC-ve polarity. This is the preparation for all metals other than aluminium. When we prepare this tungsten we aim for the length of the point from tip to shoulder to be approx 2.5 times the diameter of the electrode. Now we look at the preparation for welding aluminium. A sharp point is not permitted when welding aluminium because the arc is to concentrated for the low melting temperature of aluminium. A slight chamfer on the end of a clean tungsten is sufficient. When welding Aluminium ensure you are welding using the AC circuit. Click on the times below next to the relevant topic and the video will start at this point.
