Arc Welding Process - How a Welding Torch Joins Metal Components #3099176 (License: Personal Use)

This illustration depicts a green welding torch directing an electric arc toward a metal workpiece, producing visible sparks as the arc melts the base metals and filler material. The angled torch head and linear spark pattern emphasize the focused energy transfer typical in shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) or MIG processes. It’s designed for educational clarity, highlighting core mechanics without complex background details.

Used on instructional pages, vocational training sites, or industrial equipment guides to explain basic welding principles; matches user intent for learning welding fundamentals or selecting appropriate tools for metal fabrication.
