AlcoTec Wire
AlcoTec has continually worked with industry to provide them with product and services to meet their specific needs. AlcoTec has developed aluminum weld wire manufacturing methods that produce product that exceeds the standard manufacturing specifications. Some of these product characteristics are incorporated into the standard product, such as a diameter control of one-tenth the national standard requirement. Others are applied to customized product for specialized applications, such as proprietary chemistries to assist with desired weld characteristics. These advancements have been developed through working closely with industry in order to provide product, which will meet our customer's requirements. AlcoTec has provided technical training to industry through its School for Aluminum Welding Technology. Hundreds of students, consisting of welding engineers, welding inspectors, welding supervisors, and welding operators have attended specialized training in order to upgrade their personal skills and assist their organization in advancement within the aluminum welding fabrication industry. AlcoTec has applied their aluminum engineering experiences to many new projects throughout the aluminum welding fabrication industry by providing assistance with the development of welding procedures, welding and testing of new materials, evaluation of welding equipment for aluminum, investigation of welding problems, and failure analyses of welded components. AlcoTec has worked for many years developing technical literature, welding guidelines and training material, and has had continued involvement, through our membership of society technical committees, in the development of national codes and standards relating to the manufacture of aluminum welding wire, and for the design and fabrication of welded aluminum structures. AlcoTec has developed a unique reputation for providing a premium quality product complemented by the highest level of technical support. This combination has been designed to ensure that our customers receive the ultimate value-added package that provides them with the capability of producing the highest quality welded components at the lowest overall costs. The use of aluminum continues to grow within the welding fabrication industry in both size and complexity, and with it the need for aluminum filler alloys which will meet these needs, the advancement of welding equipment specifically designed for welding aluminum, and the requirement for resources which can provide industry with technical support.
