Metal Processing Industry
The metal fabrication sector can be subdivided into various sub categories based on the type and composition of the metal to be welded. Each technique will employ a specific type of gas/mixture which is most suited for the work metal. Shielding gases are used to create an inert atmosphere around the work area and in certain cases provide additional properties. Shielding gases are differentiated by the way the conduct heat and their chemical characteristics.

 

Welding techniques include:

 

  • Welding & Cutting
    • MIG/MAG Welding
    • TIG Welding
    • Plasma Welding
    • Laser Welding
    • Flame Cutting
    • Oxy-fuel Cutting
  • Coating
    • Powder Coating
    • Plasma Coating

Supply Options:

At Gulf Cryo we believe in providing the best available supply package to suit your business requirements. Depending on the size of the business activity, we install cryogenic storage tanks connected through ambient air vaporizers to acetylene station or gas mixing units with gas distributed through a pipeline to the workstations. Other options available are supplies through manifold racks, portable liquid containers, or high-pressure cylinders. Mobile Distribution Systems (MDS) was designed, developed, launched, and patented by another Gulf Cryo subsidiary company Arabian Industrial Gases Co. MDS is composed of one 180 liter liquid oxygen container, one 8 cylinders acetylene rack, and two individual manifolds, one for oxygen and the other for acetylene, with five outlets for each gas. Each manifold is provided with a master regulator, and each outlet point is conveniently equipped with flash back arrester. The MDS is safely mounted on a steel frame with all the required safety measures.
