Welding School Meets Industry's Need for Highly Skilled Workers

Eastern Wyoming College is located in Torrington, WY and serves 1,500 students from Wyoming and neighboring Nebraska, South Dakota, Colorado and Montana. The college is well known for its Welding & Joining Technology Program, which is led by three American Welding Society (AWS)-Certified Welding Instructors with a combined 75 years of experience.

Challenge

Construct and equip a state-of-the-art welding lab to complement its existing one.

Solution

X-Tractor 52 high-vac central fume extraction system as well as 26 other pieces of Lincoln equipment, ranging from CV-305 power sources with DH-10 wire feeders, Precision TIG® 185 welders, Idealarc® 250 stick welders, and Power Wave® 455 waveform control power sources with Power Feed® 10 wire feeders.

Results

  • Eastern Wyoming is one of only 50 AWS-accredited test facilities in the country and was one of the first to attain this designation.
