Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. This is often done by melting the workpieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to become a strong joint, with pressure sometimes used in conjunction with heat, or by itself, to produce the weld.
Withdrawn in the quality management context refers to the process of removing or taking back a product, service, or document from circulation, use, or further consideration due to various reasons, including quality issues, regulatory non-compliance, or changes in specifications. This action is often a crucial part of quality control and assurance processes to prevent potentially harmful or non-conforming products or information from reaching consumers or stakeholders.
