Manufacturing Welding Lab

• For students, apprentice candidates and incumbent workers enrolled in MATC certificate welding programs
• A continuing-education resource for incumbent welders, certificate training in flux core arc welding and shielded metal arc welding processes
• A continuing-education resource for welding manufacturers, offering training upgrades and AWS D1.1 certification

Compared to five years ago, the newest welding machines are four times more energy-efficient. Maintenance costs are lower and reliability much improved, yielding extraordinary productivity gains.

To take full advantage of this, the manufacturing welding lab teaches high-skill techniques, including heavy-plate welding, for the mining equipment industry, utility companies and other industries.

Featuring latest-generation equipment, the lab has 12 stations with weld booths and movable fixtures for position welding. Our Office of Corporate Learning can arrange shop rentals for customize training. Related classrooms and labs also are for rent.
