Wire Feed Welding vs. Alberta
Despite global advances in welding technology, Alberta continues to rely heavily on SMAW (stick welding) in pressure applications. This presentation, led by Will Morlidge and Terry Mueller, explores why wire feed processes like GMAW, FCAW, and MCAW—proven to increase productivity, quality, and safety—remain underutilized.
