This Paper presents the study on the weldability of two similar and two different metallic materials. The weldability of the similar metallic materials considered in the study were aluminum alloy pipes of grade AA6063. As for the weldability of two different metallic materials were aluminum alloy of grade AA6061 to low carbon steel of grade A36, dupl stainless steel of grade 2205 to low carbon steel of grade A36 and grey cast iron of grade A48 class 35 to low carbon steel BS 449 of grade 250. The differing methods of welding or joining processes are discussed herein including those of stir welding and hot pressed diffusion bonding of the similar and dissimilar metallic materials respectively as mentioned above. The weldability of between the two materials are investigated including the physical appearance of the joints and the strength integrity of those so far achieved at this stage. The paper also presented the results on the weldability of the similar and different metallic materials, recommendation for further in-depth study in pursuit for improved technologies on the subject matters and highlight the prospects of metallic materials welding or bonding or joining to fulfill the demands for different applications.

This work examines friction properties of smooth-honed thermal spray (TS) low carbon steel coatings produced on an Al-9.0% Si alloy using a plasma transferred wire arc (PTWA) method and an AISI 1010 wire used as feedstock in comparison with the ASM type D grey cast iron (CI) samples subjected to the same (smooth) honing process. CI samples prepared using a standard honing process were also tested for comparison. Reciprocating sliding tests were performed using a Cameron–Plint tribometer against CrN-coated counterfaces within a speed range of 0.06–1.20 m/s covering the boundary and mixed lubrication conditions. Stribeck curves were constructed to show the coefficient of friction (COF) variations with the ratio (λ) of lubricant film thickness to composite surface roughness of TS and CI samples at the mid-stroke position where sliding speeds and surface roughnesses were measured. Examination of the Stribeck curves showed that the TS coated surfaces provided lower COF values compared to CI surfaces given the same smooth honing treatment, e.g., for λ = 2.7 a COF of 0.029 was observed for TS and 0.035 for CI, whereas conventional honing of CI provided a COF of 0.047 under the same condition. Metallographic evidence was given for the surface features and formation of tribolayers on the contact surfaces. The arithmetic mean heights of the surfaces, Sa measured after the tests remained similar for the smooth-honed TS and CI samples. The low COF values of the TS samples were discussed in terms of the surface pores generated during their manufacturing process, and the high oil retention depth ratio (Svk/Sk) of the TS coated surfaces due to the presence of these pores.

This study is an approach to investigate the environmental impact of screw manufacturing and to choose suitable material for selected screw-making processes for the best performance with minimum environmental impact. The parameters involved were types of material and screw-making process using the environmental data available in Asia region. The two different manufacturing approaches being evaluated were machining and forging. The types of material considered were low carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium alloy and aluminium alloy. As for machining process, the materials being considered in screw manufacturing were low carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium alloy, aluminium alloy, magnesium alloy and cast iron. The information of environmental impact are generated by SolidWorks. Sustainability tool was used in the formation of pair-wise comparison matrices for Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Then, the ranking of global priorities had enabled the determination of appropriate material to be used for those selected screw manufacturing process. As a result, aluminium alloy was found to give minimum environmental impact for forging process whereas cast iron was found to excel in machining process. At the same time, titanium alloy was not suggested to be used in either process.
