Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Gas Metal Arc Welding Flux Cored Arc Welding
Tungsten Inert Gas (orTIG) welding is also referred to as GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) and by the term Heliarc® which was the Linde Company's trade name for the TIG process when it was originally introduced.The welding arc is started with a sharply pointed tungsten electrode shielded by inert gas. A separate filler rod is fed manually into the weld puddle in much the same way as is done when gas welding.The process is well suited for aluminum.

There are far more than 5 types or processes of welding. Currently the American Welding Society (AWS) states that there are more than 80 different welding and joining processes. However, some of the common welding processes include shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), flux cored arc welding (FCAW), and oxyfuel gas welding (OFW).
Heliarc was the name used when TIG welding was first developed during WWII. A tungsten electrode carrying the current to create an arc and utilizing helium as a protective gas. The process has evolved to utilize many different types of gasses. The name was changed to reflect this. The correct nomenclature is GTAW. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding.

I'm pretty sure it stands for Gas-Tungsten Arc Welding.
Argon welding, also known as gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), is a welding process that uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode to create a welding arc. Argon gas is typically used as the shielding gas to protect the weld pool from atmospheric contamination. This process is commonly used for welding non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, and thin materials.
Tungsten Inert Gas (orTIG) welding is also referred to as GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) and by the term Heliarc® which was the Linde Company's trade name for the TIG process when it was originally introduced.The welding arc is started with a sharply pointed tungsten electrode shielded by inert gas.

Tungsten is a metal used as the electrode in Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding. It has a high melting point and is non-consumable, so it does not melt during the welding process. Tungsten helps create a stable arc and allows for precise control in TIG welding.

False, this will cause contamination of the tungsten electrode as there will be insufficient gas coverage.
Choosing one of the six commonly available tungsten electrodes is a crucial first step in successful gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW).
