This paper presents a control system for manual pulsed Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). This system consists of a current controller, which makes it possible to shape the current during welding, and two important components, which are the key issues discussed in this paper. These components include an arc length controller and a metal transfer controller. The arc length controller is based on a no...

Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is a highly efficient and fast process for fabricating high quality weld. High quality welds are fabricated by proper selection of consumable includes gas and filler metals. The optimum flow rate of gas will ensure the proper quality of weld. In this project, a fluid flow behavior of different flow rate is modeled and the change quality will be studied. KeywordsHydr...

OBJECTIVES Arc welding produces the full spectrum of ultraviolet radiation and may be a contributory cause of skin cancer; however, there has been little research into this occupational hazard. The aim of this study is to explore if metal arc welding increases the risk of malignant melanoma and/or basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) on skin areas which may possibly be e...

The welding of metals and alloys is a widely used industrial process. Many types of analysis have been carried out on such problems [MUB67]. The numerical thermal analysis of welding is required to take into account such features as temperature dependent material properties, phase change, non-uniform distribution of energy from heat source etc. In this paper, a 2-D non-linear electric arc-weldi...

all the producing and assembling processes exert residual stress on the pieces that may lead to structural failure. therefore, calculating the residual stress in such structures has been common in recent years. in this article, distribution of temperature and residual stress resulting from arc welding in three-pass butt joint in p91 austenitic stainless steel pipes is calculated and estimated u...

Gas tungsten arc welding is fundamental in those industries where it is important to control the weld bead shape and its metallurgical characteristics. However, compared to the other arc welding process, the shallow penetration of the TIG welding restricts its ability to weld thick structures in a single pass (~ 2 mm for stainless steels), thus its productivity is relativity low. This is why th...

Ongoing public discussions on adverse effects of electromagnetic fields on the human body and international as well as European legislation require the definition of assessment methods for these fields and their biological effects. This is of particular importance in special areas like arc welding where high field-strengths occur and simple procedures to show compliance with the exposure limits...

In the work influence of thermal limiters on formation a dendritic structure stainless steel AISI 304L layer deposited by electric arc welding in argon medium was investigated. The billets investigated mode differential interference contrast. analysis obtained structures showed that use form graphite skids allows to obtain uniform without sharp transitions between layers.

This paper presents an evaluation of an infrared sensor for monitoring the welding pool temperature in a Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) process. The purpose of the study is to develop a real time system control. It is known that the arc welding pool temperature is related to the weld penetration depth; therefore, by monitoring the temperature, the arc pool temperature and penetration depth are...
