如果是这样，本简明指南消除了关于焊接这种多用途金属的误解和负面看法。主题包括背衬气体保护、腔室、接头设计、设备、耗材、填充金属转移，以及钨极气体保护焊、金属气体保护焊、等离子弧焊、电子束和激光束焊接以及电阻焊的特殊焊接条件。为了编写本指南，编辑尤金·霍恩伯格使用了来自AWS、TWI和NASA以及国际钛协会建议和评论的资料。

Do you hesitate to specify titanium If so, this succinct guide dispels the myths and negative perceptions about welding this versatile metal. Topics include backing gas shielding, chambers, joint design, equipment, consumables, filler metal transfer, and special welding conditions for gas tungsten arc welding, gas metal arc welding, plasma arc welding, electron and laser beam welding, and resistance welding. To produce this Guide, compilereditor Eugene Hornberger used sources from AWS, TWI, and NASA, and the International Titanium Associations advice and review.
