Proses pengelasan busur listrik dengan elektroda terbungkus (Shielded Metal Arc Welding-SMAW) banyak digunakan dalam aplikasi di industri dan konstruksi. Material yang juga banyak digunakan dalam aplikasi proses SMAW adalah baja karbon ASTM A36, yaitu jenis plain carbon steel. Kemampuan baja tersebut untuk disambung dengan menggunakan proses SMAW (weldability) dipengaruhi oleh banyak hal, salah satunya adalah heat input. Besarnya heat input pada proses pengelasan tergantung dari besarnya arus yang digunakan. Pada studi ini akan diteliti pengaruh besarnya arus yang digunakan, yaitu 70 A, 80 A dan 90 A, terhadap mampu las baja karbon ASTM A36. Metode yang digunakan untuk mengetahui mampu las baja tersebut adalah Controlled Thermal Severity (CTS) Test. Kawat elektroda yang digunakan adalah kawat elektroda terbungkus jenis E6013. Hasil yang diperoleh dari pengujian ini adalah mampu las baja ASTM A36 cukup baik. Hal ini diindikasikan dengan jumlah dan ukuran dari retak yang ditemukan masih di bawah harga minimum yang dipersyaratkan. Kemudian juga diketahui bahwa makin besar arus listrik yang digunakan menyebabkan peningkatan nilai kekerasan mikro dari logam las dan HAZ, namun jumlah dan ukuran retak jadi bertambah banyak dan besar.

Purpose The purpose of this study is on AISI 409 M ferritic stainless steel (FSS) which is developing a preferred choice for railway carriages, storage tanks and reactors in chemical plants. The intergranular corrosion behavior of welded SS 409 M has been studied in H2SO4 solution (0.5 M) with the addition of NH4SCN (0.01 M) with different heat input. As this study is very important in context of various chemical and petrochemical industries. Design/methodology/approach The microstructure, mechanical properties and intergranular corrosion properties of AISI 409 M FSS using shielded metal arc welding were investigated. Shielded metal arc welding with different welding current values are used to change the heat input in the joints resulted in the microstructural variations. The microstructure of the welded steel was carefully inspected along the width of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and the transverse-section of the thin plate. Findings The width of heat affected zone (3.1,4.2 and 5.8 mm) increases on increasing the welding heat input. Due to change in grain size (grain coarsening) as HAZ increased. From the microstructure, it was observed that the large grain growth which is dendritic and the structure become finer to increase in welding heat input. For lower heat input, the maximum microhardness value (388HV) was observed compared with medium (351 HV) and higher heat input (344 HV), which is caused by a rapid cooling rate and the depleted area of chromium (Cr) and nickel (Ni). The increase in weld heat input decreases tensile strength, i.e. 465 MPa, 440 MPa and 418 MPa for low, medium and high heat input, respectively. This is because of grain coarsening and chromium carbide precipitation in sensitized zone and wider HAZ. The degree of sensitization increases (27.04%, 31.86% and 36.08%) to increase welding heat input because of chromium carbide deposition at the grain boundaries. The results revealed that the higher degree of sensitization and the difference in intergranular corrosion behavior under high heat input are related to the grain growth in the HAZ and the weld zone. Originality/value The study is based on intergranular corrosion behavior of welded SS 409 M in H2SO4 solution (0.5 M) with the addition of NH4SCN (0.01 M) with different heat input which is rarely found in literature.

Weld Properties

Welding is basic part of the most modern assembly and manufacturing operations. Shielded metal Arc Welding process has hard facing and fabrication job application due to low cost electrode, increasing alloy transfer efficiency and low dilution with substrate without losing production capacity. SMAW electrode is coated with metal mixture called flux, which on decompose produce gases to restrict weld contamination, generating deoxidizers to disinfect the weld. The choice of electrode for SMAW lies on a number of factors, like weld material, welding direction and the preferred weld properties. The present paper investigate the microstructure and hardness properties of the Low carbon steel pipe welded using shielded metal arc welding with different electrode combinations.

316LN stainless steel is a material with excellent mechanical properties, good resistance to intergranular corrosion and good weldability, and it has been used in many fields of industry. Welding quality has great influence on the strength and corrosion resistance of weldment. In this study, one group of submerged arc welding and three groups of shielded metal arc welding were taken to study the influence of heat input on grain size in the structure of 316LN welded joints. The results show that the microstructures of the weld zones in experiment were all consist of austenite and a small amount of banding or dendritic δ-ferrite and the amount of ferrite decrease with the increase of heat input. It also can be concluded from the experiment that with the increase of welding heat input the grain size of overheated zone decrease.

The effect of welding current on the tensile properties of low carbon steel welded joint was investigated in this research. In this work mild steel plates were joined by shielded metal arc welding process which is also known as manual metal arc welding used to examine optimum welding current. The welded samples were cut and machined to standard configurations for tensile tests. It was concluded that variation of current affect the tensile properties of the low carbon steel welded joint. As the current increases from 80A to 110A, the ultimate tensile strengths and yeild strength increases. The percentage elongation decreases with increase in welding current but increases at the welding current of 110A.

Effect of variation of the connection (butt joint) in low carbon steel resistance welding (shielded metal arc welding, SMAW) performance is investigated in this paper. Three types of butt joint was varied: square, single V, and double V. The results from tensile test showed that welded specimens are of similar tensile properties with base metal and one another. When hardness test was performed on weld metal, HAZ, and base metal of each specimen,.it was found that weld metal and HAZ were of higher hardness than the base metal. Specimen with square joint exhibits the highest hardness while specimens with single V and double V joints show similar hardness. Microstructure analysis revealed that weld metal of specimen with square joint is of bainite-martensite phases while weld metal of specimens with single V and double V joints are of ferrite-pearlite phases. This difference in microstructure, and hence in hardness, is related to the corresponding heat input during welding.

Metal Arc Welding

This study examines the effect of heat input on the weld bead profile, microstructure and mechanical properties of single V- joint welded carbon and stainless-steel plates. The as-received sample steel plates were sectioned into eight pieces; dimension 75 X 30 X 10 mm  thicknesses. Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) of heat inputs 1250 and 2030 J/mm was used to produce full penetration bead on the plates. Although visual inspection indicated that some of the welds were macro defect free, austenitic stainless steel exhibited more weld distortions than the carbon steel and this was partially attributed to its lower carbon content and the width to depth aspect ratio of the weld profile aside the magnitude of the induced stress. For the carbon steel, as the heat input increased, the hardness value of both the heat affected zone and fusion zone increased. In contrast, for stainless steel, the hardness values were reasonably comparable within same weld region (HAZ or FZ) irrespective of heat input. Furthermore, the ultimate tensile strength of the stainless steel decreased as heat input increased while the ductility increased with an increase in heat input, in contrast to carbon steel, where both ductility and ultimate tensile strength generally decreased.
