Welding and Cutting Fundamentals 101 (WCF 101)

40 Lab and classroom Contact hours. This is the introduction to the basic of welding and safety! This is the language of welding. The student learns to have an intelligent conversation about welding. They learn the differences between GTAW, GMAW, SMAW, FCAW, OFW and OFC. They learn about the basic wires for GTAW and GMAW. The Rods for SMAW and the gases used in different processes. How to set up for the different metals both ferrous and nonferrous.

Intro to AWS Welding Symbols and Positions WSP 101

20 hour classroom lab on fillet and groove welding symbols. Also included basic welding positions. 1G to 6G and 1F to 4F

WLD.GTAW.Alum 101-G1/F1

Prerequisite WCF-101

36 Contact hours in shop/lab on machines welding aluminum
This course is an in-depth GTAW TIG welding class on how to set up machine, grind tungsten, identifies proper wires and base metals IE: nonferrous aluminum and the differences between 5053 and 6061 series base metals and the use of 5356 and 4043 wires for welding.

WLD.GTAW.Steel .101-G1/F1

Prerequisite WCF 101

36 Contact hours in shop/lab on machines welding GTAW Steel.
This course introduces the student to manipulate the melted steel rod to make a weld in the G 1 or flat position as well as the F 1 fillet Students will be introduced to ER 70s-2 wires of various diameters and practice padding by making 1-inch plates and t-joints.

WLD.GTAW. Stainless Steel.101-G1/F1

Prerequisite WCF 101

36 Contact hours in shop/lab using GTAW Machines set up to weld Stainless steel. Students will use both water cooled and air cooled GTAW torches and learn about all of the components that are on a GTAW machine.IE, Foot pedal tourch Argon regulator and more! They will use multiple diameter’s of stainless wires. Learn about controlling your heat and looking for discoloration in heat effected zone.

WLD SMAW 101.G1/F1-6011

Prerequisite WCF 101

36 Contact hours in SMAW Shielded Metal Arc Welding aka stick or arc welding! There are several basic stick rods that are common in industry. At Morash Institute we prefer to separate the rod class. This way you can get the hands-on training you need to feel the differences not only in the rods. Like 6011 or 7018But also in the positions. Each position is a designated class. Such as Flat G! or Vertical G3 etc. AWS D1.1 Structural Code is what we start out training at.

WLD SMAW 101.G1/F1-7018

Prerequisite WCF 101

36 Contact hours SMAW 7018 Structural steel rod runs totally different than 6011. In this class we focus on running beads and padding up heavy plates in both the flat and fillet or T joint positions. AWS Structural Code D1.1 is what we train on at this stage of training.

WLD GMAW 101.G1/F1-ER 70s-6

Prerequisite WCF 101

36 hour of Mig 101. Gas Metal Arc Welding or MIG welding class.
Learn the GMAW process on both AWS D9.1 Sheetmetal codes and AWS Structural code.

Level II

3D blueprint training 39 contact hours in lab

Prerequisite Intro to AWS welding symbols and positions

Old school style blue print training, we build projects from paper to full 3 D dimensions. If the student can build a project from paper, they can have a fuller understanding and a better skill level on fabricating. Look at our 3D projects page for ideas and samples.

Metal Finishing Course 102

Prerequisite Welding Fundamentals 101

Using, hand held grinders, sanders, vibraters both electrical and pneumatic and bumble bees to finish, polish or grind flush to improve the projects per blueprint and industry standards.

Welding and Cutting fundamentals 102

Prerequisite Welding Fundamentals 101

40 hours of Advancing on all the topics of W&CF101 we study the advanced hands on ways of improving our GTAW, SMAW, GMAW, OFW, OFC, Plasma Cutting and finishing techniques in both the lab and the classroom. We also introduce some of the high-tech CNC and laser ways of welding.
