Creative Aluminum Welding

Aluminum alloys are generally chosen due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. This unique aluminum project was brought to The Welding Shop Calgary for a solution.

With over 45 years of experience, The Welding Shop has seen a few things but this was definitely a first.

Building a travelling deck on top of a big rig cab and figuring out a way to access that deck was definitely a challenge.

Calgary Specialty Welding

The Welding Shop Calgary creates many specialty items for it’s welding customers.

This gluing station  was created to the specifications required to mount large fans in its ceiling. These fans, when mounted into the holes created in the casing, will draw toxic fumes away from the workers who will be stationed at the platform while working on the companies products.

Custom Welded Fencing

Most fencing comes in standard sizes and are typically made for keeping something in or keeping something out.

What if you need a fence that has special dimensions and heavier construction materials than your common every day fence.

The Welding Shop Calgary can customize fencing to fit any need, like this special piece to divide an out door patio space between two condominiums.

Once primed and painted it will have a great industrial vibe and separate the two areas without entirely closing off the view.

Welding Big Rig Modifications

Big rig cabs can be just like a small apartments on the interior but sometimes there is little if no storage on the exterior.

To accommodate the need to store tools, chains and other items critical to keeping cab space free of heavy equipment The Welding Shop Calgary created these side lockers for this big rig cab.

The rear deck of the cab also had to be extended to assimilate the new large lockers.

What Metals Can be Welded Together

Weldability is word used to describe how compatible certain metals are with one another.

Metals such as titanium, copper or brass have common elements.  Iron and steel can all be welded using basic stick welding.

Magnesium alloys are welded using AC-TIG welding while copper, brass and titanium use DC-TIG

The Welding Shop Calgary has extensive experience in all forms of welding and are on hand to offer advice or a FREE quote on your unusual project.

This odd coupling will be installed in a service area in a new hospital renovation.
