The welding use correct process parameters will produce joint with optimum in mechanical properties. The current is a very important process parameter in welding. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process carbon steel A53 Gr B uses current variations can be an option to get the best quality joints. The purpose of this research is to get optimum mechanical properties and microstructure by varying the current. The experimental method uses GTAW process by varying current in welding A 53 Gr B using a single V butt joint and a 5G welding position, the Argon protective gas flow rate of 15 liters per minute with filler rod ER 70 S-6. This process also uses 11-13 Volt voltage with DCEN polarity and current 70, 90, and 110A. Based on ASME Section IX, the test results show that the specimen with a current of 90A gives optimum results with a tensile strength of 480 MPa and a hardness value of 190 HV, whereas specimens with welding current of 70A bring incomplete penetration defects in the weld area. The use of welding current 90A in this research provides welding results with better mechanical properties and microstructure compared to the use of currents of 70 and 110A

High-quality joining of dissimilar alloys between Fe-36Ni alloy and 304L stainless steel is essential in the manufacturing of LNG tanker. In this study, lap joints of Fe-36Ni and 304L dissimilar alloys were fabricated by a pulsed gas tungsten arc welding (P-GTAW) process. The effects of low-frequency pulse on the appearance, microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe-36Ni/304L lap joints was investigated. With the increase of frequency, the feature sizes of α (the transition angle of the upper surface of Fe-36Ni to the surface of the weld bead) and R (shortest distance between weld root and weld surface) exhibited downtrend and uptrend, respectively, while La (the maximum weld width of lower sheet) and P (the maximum weld penetration of lower sheet) changed in a smaller range. Fusion zone (FZ) is mainly composed of γ phase and M23C6 during solidification, and M23C6 particles are distributed on the grain boundaries of the cells, which reduced the mechanical properties of joint. The average hardness between 110 HV1 and 136 HV1 is lower than that of the base metals. Fractures of all joints located at the Fe-36Ni side near the weld, and a dimple fracture in all samples indicated a ductile fracture. This study found that the heat input values remain 198.86 J mm−1 and increased pulse frequency can improve the maximum tensile force. The average maximum tensile force of the lap weld is 11.95 kN when pulsed frequency is 15 Hz.

The paper presents a model of using the artificial neural networks when determining the relations of dependency between the observable parameters and the controllable ones in the case of RoboticGas Tungsten Arc Welding. The proposed model is based on the direct observation of welded joints, emphasizing on the process variables which have been arranged in the nodes of a neural network. The design of the network intended to achieve an architecture that contains four nodes in the input layer (all of them being controllable parameters) and two nodes in the output layer (one for each observable parameter).
