Etymology

The word 'welder' originates from the Old English term 'waldian,' meaning to rule or control, which evolved into Middle English as 'welden,' referring to the act of 'melting' or 'fusing.' This transformation highlighted the skilled action of melding materials together, particularly metals. The application of the term expanded in the late 19th century as industrial practices advanced, leading to a distinct profession centered around welding in factories and workshops. By the early 20th century, with the growth of the automobile and construction industries, the role of the welder became essential, contributing significantly to structural integrity and innovation in engineering. The profession has since evolved with advancements in technology, introducing various welding methods such as arc welding, MIG welding, and TIG welding, further solidifying the significance of welders in modern manufacturing and construction processes.
