The focus of this work is to design parameters for shielded metal arc welding to ensure continuous and leak proof joints. To achieve the object an attempt has been made to selected important welding parameters. The selected welding parameters are welding current, welding speed, electrode angle and electrode angle. The selection is purely based on field expert’s suggestions, literature Survey an...

the aim of this article is study of tool plunge depth (tpd) effects on mechanical properties of friction stir welding of aa1100 aluminium alloy to a441 aisi steel. for this purpose the 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 mm tpd selected and other welding parameters kept constant. the results shows that the frictional heat increases and stir zone grain size decreases with increasing tpd at both base metals. ...

abstract: friction stir welding, a solid state innovative joining technique, is widely being used for joining aluminium alloys for aerospace, marine automotive and many other applications of commercial importance. fsw trials were carried out using a vertical machining centre (vmc) on aa6061 alloy. the main objective of the present work was to evaluate the weld processing parameter of friction s...

Friction welding of cast Fe-40Al alloy was carried out at 1000 rmp for various friction times, friction pressures, and forging pressures. The microstructures of the interface of welded samples were analyzed by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Micrographs demonstrated that excellent welding formed continuously along the interface, except for samples welded for 3 s. Chemical compos...

austenitic stainless steel sheets have gained wide acceptance in the fabrication of components, which require high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance such as metal bellows used in expansion joints in aircraft, aerospace and petroleum industries. in the case of single pass welding of thinner sections of this alloy, pulsed current micro plasma arc welding (pcmpaw) has been found bene...

Friction Stir Welding (FSW), being a novel process and facilitates welding various joints required for several industrial applications. It is an attractive technology for solid state material joining, contrary to conventional welding methods, having ability to produce welds with higher integrity and minimum induced distortion and residual stresses. In this paper, the operation of FSW, critical ...

Resistance spot welding is used to join two or more metal objects together, and the technique is in widespread use in, for example, the automotive and electrical industries. This paper discusses both the identification of different spot welding processes and the process initialization parameters leading to highquality welding joints. In this research, self-organizing maps (SOMs) were used, and ...

ABSTRACT: The solving method of positions and attitudes of discrete solder joints in a curved weld and the method for constructing a weld coordinate system based on Frenet-Serret’s vector were put forward and the position and orientation vectors relative to time series of discrete welding points were obtained. Thus the relative position and orientation between welding point and welding torch wi...
