Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is a recent outgrowth of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process and relies on solid-state deformation to modify the surface of the working surface/materials. Our work to date has shown to locally eliminate casting defects and refine the microstructure to improve their mechanical properties and enhance corrosion resistance. Such improvements have important implica...

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, also called as gas tungsten welding 1. (a) Schematic of TIG welding Process (b) Variety of tungsten electrodes. The activated TIG (ATIG) welding process mainly focuses on increasing the depth of penetration and the reduction in the width of weld bead has not been paid. Tungsten inert gas welding, TIG is widely applied in manufacturing process for different The ...

Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) or Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG) is one of the widely used techniques for joining ferrous and non-ferrous metal.Gas tungsten arc welding process,consist of non-consumable tungsten electrode which is used to provide the arc for welding. During the welding cycle a shield of inert gas expels the air from the welding area and prevents oxidation of the electrode, w...

This paper provides a general introduction to welding fundamentals (section 2) followed by sections on a few selected welding processes that have had significant developments or improvements over the last few years. The processes that are discussed are friction welding (section 3), hot plate welding (section 4), ultrasonic welding (section 5), laser/IR welding (section 6), RF welding (section 7...

Abstract In order to solve the problems of low efficiency and difficulty in adding tin end cap production process fuse, unstable amount resulted over-welding fake-welding. This paper designed manufactured a set automatic equipment for welding fuse. The feeding device can accurately feed cap; disc cutter structures with machine is used cut wire, wire falls into heating melt liquid cap. cooling m...

Submerged arc welding is preferred over other methods of welding because of its inherent qualities like easy control of process variables, high quality, deep penetration, smooth finish, capability to weld thicker sections. Since the development of submerged arc welding process, welding engineers are striving for reduction in welding cost without compromise in the performance of the weld. Flux u...

In this study, the effect of various welding parameters on the weldability of Mild Steel specimens having dimensions 50mm× 40mm× 6 mm welded by metal arc welding were investigated. The welding current, arc voltage, welding speed, heat input rate are chosen as welding parameters. The depth of penetrations were measured for each specimen after the welding operation on closed butt joint and the ef...

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a relatively new welding process that may have significant advantages compared to the fusion processes as follow: joining of conventionally non-fusion weldable alloys, reduced distortion and improved mechanical properties of weldable alloys joints due to the pure solid-state joining of metals. In this paper, a three-dimensional model based on finite element analys...
