TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas) is one of the most commonly used techniques in metalworking and is essential in the production of stainless steel tanks intended for food transportation.

Thanks to its precision, durability, and ability to ensure high-quality joints, TIG welding is the ideal choice to ensure durability and safety.

At D’Eusanio, we use TIG welding on stainless steel to ensure highly performing solutions that meet the hygienic standards of the food industry.

 

What is TIG Welding and How Does It Work?

TIG welding is an arc welding process where a non-consumable tungsten electrode is used, protected by an inert gas to prevent oxidation of the weld area.

This process ensures extremely precise and clean joints with an impeccable aesthetic finish and no imperfections.

This makes TIG welding ideal for working with stainless steel, a material that requires precision welding to avoid deformation or structural alterations.

It is particularly suitable for the food and pharmaceutical sectors because it protects the welded joint from oxidation, preventing impurities or defects that could compromise the material's resistance to corrosive agents, ensuring maximum hygiene and food safety.

 

Advantages of TIG Welding for the Food Industry

In the food industry, the quality of welded joints is crucial to ensure product safety. TIG welding produces joints free of porosity, reducing the risk of bacterial buildup and making tank cleaning easier.

This feature makes TIG welding the ideal choice for the production of stainless steel tanks for food, where hygiene is paramount.

Additionally, TIG-welded tanks are extremely durable and resistant, reducing the need for long-term maintenance.

The quality of the joints produced by the TIG process ensures greater resistance to harsh operating conditions, such as the intensive transport of grapes during harvest, improving overall performance and reducing maintenance costs.

At D’Eusanio, thanks to state-of-the-art machinery and highly qualified operators, we guarantee superior quality in welded joints, maintaining high-quality standards and ensuring that each tank is made with extreme precision and attention to detail.

 

TIG welding is an irreplaceable technology in stainless steel processing, especially for sensitive applications such as the production of tanks for the food and wine sectors. For this reason, we use this technique to offer durable, safe, and hygienic solutions.
