Electron beam welding (EBW) shows certain problems with the control of focus regime. The electron beam focus can be controlled in electron-beam welding based on the parameters of a secondary signal. In this case, the parameters like secondary emissions and focus coil current have extreme relationships. There are two values of focus coil current which provide equal value signal parameters. There...

To achieve reliable welds with minimum distortion for the fabrication of components in aerospace industry laser beam welding is attempted. Laser welding can provide a significant benefit for the welding of Titanium and Aluminium thin sheet alloys of its precision and rapid processing capability. For laser welding, pulse shape, energy, duration, repetition rate and peak power are the most import...

Resistance spot welding is an important and widely used method for joining metal objects. In this paper, various classification methods for identifying welding processes are evaluated. Using process identification, a similar process for a new welding experiment can be found among the previously run processes, and the process parameters leading to high-quality welding joints can be applied. With...

This paper presents a study on optimization of process parameters using particle swarm optimization to minimize angular distortion in 202 grade stainless steel gas tungsten arc welded plates. Angular distortion is a major problem and most pronounced among different types of distortion in butt welded plates. The process control parameters chosen for the study are welding gun angle, welding speed...

This paper investigates the effects of process parameters on weld bead width of austenitic stainless steel SS-310 in tungsten inert gas welding. The four parameters namely welding current, type of gas, gas flow rate and included angle of weld plates during butt joint were varied at three levels. The DOE approach was used to design experimental conditions. Orthogonal array L9 was used for carryi...

in this paper, dissimilar resistance spot welding of aisi 1075 eutectoid steel to aisi 201 stainless steel is investigated experimentally. for this purpose, the experiments are designed using response surface methodology and based on four-factor, five-level central composite design. the effects of process parameters such as welding current, welding time, cooling time and electrode force are inv...

Stud arc welding has become one of the most important unit operations in the mechanical industries. The need to reduce the time from product discovery to market introduction is inevitable. Reducing of standard deviation of tensile strength with desirable tensile strength joint as a performance character was use to illustrate the design procedure. The effects of (welding time, welding current, s...

Welding method and its parameters has an important effect on the formability and mechanical properties of tailor welded blanks(TWBs). In this study gas tungsten arc welding(GTAW) is used to joint aluminum TWBs. Aluminum TWBs consist of 6061 aluminum sheets with different thickness of 1mm and 2mm. Main parameters of GTAW consist of welding current, pressure of shielding gas, welding speed and di...

In pulsed Nd:YAG laser welding process, the material melts and solidifies consecutively by a peak high power laser beam. The solidification time in this process is very less as compared to that of conventional welding process. The mode of welding process is governed by the process parameters like laser energy, pulse duration, pulse frequency, power and welding speed. This paper aimed at to exam...
