Learn the skills fabrication shops and production facilities are looking for with our TIG, MIG & Flux Welding Course. This 4-month, 240-hour hands-on program focuses on pipe welding using carbon metals, giving you real-world experience in the techniques and setups used inside fabrication environments.

What You’ll Learn

Train across three major welding processes used in shop and production pipe welding:
    •    TIG (GTAW) – for precise, clean welds on carbon pipe.
    •    MIG (GMAW) – for efficient and consistent root passes.
    •    Flux-Cored (FCAW) – for strong, durable hot pass, filler, and cap layers.
    •    Orbital Rollout Machine Training – learn how to use an orbital rollout machine for pipe rotation and control.

You’ll also learn:
    •    Pipe preparation and fit-up
    •    Beveling and joint setup
    •    Repair and rework techniques
    •    Shop-level weld inspection and quality standards

Course Breakdown
    •    Months 1 & 2: Full TIG welding — build precision, control, and strong fundamentals on carbon pipe.
    •    Months 3 & 4: Transition to MIG and Flux — MIG for roots, Flux for hot pass, filler, and cap work.
    •    Final Weeks: Hands-on orbital rollout machine training, simulating real fabrication and production shop conditions.

Why Choose This Course

This course is perfect for those looking to work in fabrication shops, production lines, or industrial manufacturing. You’ll gain hands-on experience in TIG, MIG, and Flux pipe welding, plus learn how to operate an orbital rollout machine — giving you the precision, speed, and confidence needed to succeed in today’s high-demand welding industry.
