2025 07 07 MIG/MAG welding are two arc welding methods widely used in CNC machining parts manufacturing. MIG uses inert gas for non-reactive shielding, ideal for non-ferrous metals, while MAG uses active gas suitable for ferrous metals. The key difference is the shielding gas type. Both offer high productivity and adaptability in welding CNC machining parts.
