In this investigation an attempt has been made to study the effect of welding on fusion characteristics of pulsed current gas tungsten arc welded AZ31B magnesium alloy joints. Five joints were fabricated using different levels of welding speed (105 mm/min –145 mm/min). From this investigation, it is found that the joints fabricated using a welding speed of 135 mm/min yielded superior tensile properties compared to other joints. The formation of finer grains and higher hardness in fusion zone and uniformly distributed precipitates are the main reasons for the higher tensile properties of these joints

Titanium is one of the most important nonferrous metals, which finds extensive application in aerospace and chemical industries, because of its light weight, excellent corrosion resistance and high strength to weight ratio. Single pass gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding of thin sections of Ti–6Al–4V was accomplished with pulsing current technique and was found to be superior to conventional continuous current process in terms of grain refinement in the fusion zone. In this investigation, an attempt was made to study the effect of pulsed current GTA welding parameters on titanium alloy weld characteristics such as grain size and hardness. It was revealed that at an optimum value of 6 Hz pulse frequency and 80A peak current, the hardness was maximum and the grain size was minimum. Pulsing current in inert gas welding was found to be beneficial in titanium welding.
