Welding is the process of joining metal components using heat, pressure, or both to form a strong bond. Fabrication refers to the broader process of cutting, shaping, assembling, and finishing metal structures or components. Together, welding and fabrication encompass the full manufacture of custom metal parts, assemblies, and structures from raw material to finished product.
