This paper presented the effect of DE-GMAW (Double electrode gas metal arc welding)resistance on mechanical and physical properties of aluminium alloywelded. DE-GMAWis amethodof welding process that use two electrode. A non consumable torch is added to bypass the current inorder to reduce the heat input. The variation resistance used were 15Ω, 30Ω and 45Ω. Universaltesting machine and Vickers microhardness were used to measured mechanical properties of weldmetals with respect to strength and hardness. The microstructure was investigated by microscopeoptic with 100 x magnification. The grain size of weld metals with resistance value 30Ω is finer than15Ω and 45Ω. Dye penetrant test shows DE-GMAW welding machine that made have goodperformance because it can produce welding joint without surface crack. The results show thatresistance values optimum to DE-GMAW welding on aluminium alloy 5051 with 4 mm thickness is30Ω. It can be seen from the tensile test that shows the highest tensile strength is found in the DEGMAWwelding with resistance values 30Ω.

The usage of modern high strength aluminium alloys are getting more remarkable in several industry sectors mostly the fabrication of light weight structures, such as vehicles, railway transport systems, aerostructures and building constructions. The weldability problems of these alloys are more complex than the steels with similar strength. Therefore weldability problems must be analyzed very accurately, by the help of the modern physical simulation. By knowing the difficulties of the weldability of high strength aluminium alloys the proper parameters of the welding technology can be defined. This article represents the investigation of a certain weldability problem of 6082T6 aluminium alloy with the aim of physical simulation and welding experiments with gas metal arc welding and pulsed current technology.

The paper presents the application of weld layers used in renovations of functional surfaces of components that are exposed to several tribodegradation factors in operation of metallurgical and engineering industries. Surfaces of selected components are renovated using arc welding processes, namely: (MMAW) Manual Metal Arc Welding, (SAW) Submerged Arc Welding methods, (GMAW) Gas metal arc welding and (FCAW) Flux cored wire metal arc welding without gas shield. Claddings were made always three-layered directly on the surfaces of renovated components using dedicated cladding machines in operations and laboratory conditions respectively. Their quality was assessed using non-destructive tests, namely (VT) visual testing by STN EN ISO 17637 and (UT) Ultrasonic testing STN EN ISO 11666. Within the destructive tests the quality of claddings was evaluated using the metallographic analysis conducted on a light microscope Olympus BX and electron microscope Jeol where the impact of mixing the weld metal as well as heat treatment after cladding on the final structure of claddings was observed. Using the Shimadzu HMV 2 device the microhardness of cladding layers was evaluated on metallographic samples by STN EN ISO 9015-2. In laboratory conditions the resistance of cladding layers to abrasive wear was verified on the device Di-1. Experimental testing of the claddings confirmed that the selected additives and cladding parameters witting individual technology were chosen correctly as in cladding layers no presence of internal defects was observed.

AbstractLow carbon steel material and T-joints are frequently used in ship building and steel constructions. Advantages such as high deposition rates, high quality and smooth weld metals and easy automation make cored wires preferable in these industries. In this study, low carbon steel materials with web and flange thicknesses of 6 mm, 8 mm and 10 mm were welded with conventional GMAW and double channel shielding gas metal arc welding (DMAG) method to form double fillet T-joints using metal cored wire. The difference between these two methods were characterized by measurements of mean welding parameters, Vickers hardness profiles, weld bead and HAZ geometry of the joints and thermal camera temperature measurements. When weld bead and HAZ geometries are focused, it was seen filler metal molten area increased and base metal molten area decreased in DMAG of low carbon steel. When compared with traditional GMAW, finer and acicular structures in weld metal and more homogenous and smaller grains in HAZ are obtained with double channel shielding gas metal arc welding.
