# Brazier
|
|
|
|
Braziers operate various equipment and machinery in order to join two metal pieces together, by heating, melting and forming a metal filler between them, often brass or copper. They follow a similar process to soldering but with higher temperatures using torches, soldering irons, fluxes and welding machines to join aluminum, silver, copper, gold or nickel.

|
## Core workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Turn and press knobs and buttons or enter operating instructions into computers to adjust and start welding machines.
|
|
2. Set up, operate, or tend welding machines that join or bond components to fabricate metal products or assemblies.
|
|
3. Give directions to other workers regarding machine set-up and use.
|
|
4. Correct problems by adjusting controls or by stopping machines and opening holding devices.
|
|
5. Inspect, measure, or test completed metal workpieces to ensure conformance to specifications, using measuring and testing devices.
