Abstract The aim of this work is to carry out the design of experiments that determine the influence of the welding parameters using Taguchi’s method on the grain size, HAZ, and the degree of dilution in 6063-T5 alloy. The welding process used is GMAW and the welding parameters are power, welding speed and bevel spacing. The study of the influence of the welding parameters on the measurements made in the welding (which are the size of heat affected zone, the degree of dilution, and the grain size) allows one to determine the quality of the joint . In addition, the welding parameter most influential in minimising the three measurements will be determined.

An experimental study of GTAW was conducted to determine the optimization of weld parameters on the droplet formation in the surface quality of weld pools. These optimization investigations consisted of welding current, welding speed and feed rate. The strength and surface quality of weld pool were measured for each specimen after the welding parameter optimizations and the effect of these parameters on droplet formation were researched. To consider these quality characteristics together in the selection of welding parameters, the Orthogonal Array of Taguchi method is adopted to analyze the effect of each welding parameter on the weld pool quality, and then to determine the welding parameters with the optimal weld pool quality.

Joint Quality

Quality is the collection of features and characteristics of a product that contribute to its ability to meet given requirements. The quality of a weld joint is directly influenced by the welding parameters during the welding process. Often, a common problem that has been faced by the manufacturer is the control of the process parameters to obtain a good welded joint. Quality level is denoted as the probability of conformance and is a function of system variables and system specification. The present work is aimed to improve the quality of the weldment in SAW using Weighted Principal Component based Taguchi method. Three process parameters such as voltage, carriage speed and stand of distance are identified to carry out the study. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength and hardness are considered to be the response parameters in the present study.

The optimization of mechanical properties of the welded joints requires a statistical approach such as Taguchi experimental designs associated with experimental techniques and laboratory characterizations. The aim of this work is to propose a method of optimization of the mechanical performances of a TIG dissimilar welding of two grades of steels: a high strength low alloy steel X70 and an austenitic stainless steel 304L. The experimental designs were chosen according to the Taguchi method L9. The metallurgical characterization includes optical microscopy, SEM microscopy, EDX analyses and mechanical tests to establish a relationship between welding parameters, microstructures and mechanical behavior in different zones of a dissimilar weld joint. The results showed that the hardness is more strongly related to microstructural evolution than tensile strength of dissimilar joint. It was found that gas flow is the main significant TIG welding parameter affecting dissimilar weld characteristics.

Welding Processes

In the present work, an analysis of different welding parameters was carried out on the welding of stainless-steel thin thickness tubes by the Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process. The influence of three main parameters, welding voltage, movement angle, and welding current in the quality of the welds, was studied through a specifically designed experimental process based on the establishment of three different levels of values for each of these parameters. Weld quality is evaluated using destructive testing (macrographic analysis). Specifically, the width and root penetration of the weld bead were measured; however, some samples have been disregarded due to welding defects outside the permissible range or caused by excessive melting of the base metals. Data are interpreted, discussed, and analyzed using the Taguchi method and ANOVA analysis. From the analysis of variance, it was possible to identify the most influential parameter, the welding voltage, with a contribution of 43.55% for the welding penetration and 75.26% for the bead width, which should be considered in the designs of automatic welding processes to improve the quality of final welds.

Activating Flux

The purpose of this work was to investigate the effect of activating fluxes and welding parameter to the penetration and depth-to-width ratio (DWR) of 6061 aluminum alloy welds. Bead-on-plate argon gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding process was made on 6061 aluminum alloy of plate without filling metals. The activating fluxes used in the experiment were CaO, ZnO, SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Cr2O3, CaF2 and Na2CO3. Based on the higher penetration of weld bead and welding arc voltage, four fluxes were selected to create three new mixtures using 50% of each original fluxes. The mixed fluxes were used to investigate the effect to the welding penetration. Finally, The Taguchi method was employed to achieve optimal DWR of weld bead and investigate the welding parameters that significantly affect welding quality. The experimental procedure of GTA welding with activating flux via the Taguchi method produced full penetration of weld bead on a 6.35 mm thickness of 6061 aluminum alloy plate with single pass weld.

Research evolution timely tendencies, in the nonconventional technologies field, are: manufacture conditions optimization and complex equipments design. The increasing of ultrasonic machining use, in various technologies is due to the expanding need of a wide range materials and high quality manufacture standards in many activity fields. This paper present a experimental study made in order to analyze the welded zone material structure and welding quality. The effects of aluminium ultrasonic welding parameters such as relative energy, machining time, amplitude and working force were compared through traction tests values and microstructural analysis. Microhardness tests were, also, made in five different points, two in the base material and three in the welded zone, on each welded aluminium sample. The aluminum welding experiments were made at the National Research and Development Institute for Welding and Material Testing (ISIM) Timişoara. The ultrasonic welding temperature is lower than the aluminium melting temperature, that's so our experiments reveal that the aluminium ultrasonic welding process doesn't determine the appearance of moulding structure. In the joint we have only crystalline grains deformation, phase transformation and aluminium diffusion.

Цель рассмотрения численного метода заключалась в получении подробных данных, позволяющих оценить проведение сварочного процесса: изменение объёма сварного шва, радиуса сварного шва, радиуса зоны термического влияния. При проведении моделирования авторами выведены зависимости параметров точечной сварки низкоуглеродистой стали толщиной до 3,2 мм. Данные зависимости будут определять качество сварных швов. Соответствующее сочетание параметров точечной сварки обеспечит прочное соединение и хорошее качество сварки. The purpose of the numerical method consideration was to obtain detailed data allowing evaluating the performance of the welding process: changing the volume of the weld, the radius of the weld, the radius of the weld-affected zone. During the simulation the authors have derived dependencies of the parameters of spot welding of low-carbon steel up to 3.2 mm thick. These dependencies will determine the quality of the welds. The correct combination of spot welding parameters will ensure a firm joint and good welding quality.

Abstract Electrofusion (EF) welding is one of the most common connection methods for polyethylene (PE) pipe, as well as thermoplastic pipe and reinforced composite pipe. Conventional EF welding generally adopts constant-voltage welding mode. The welding machine outputs a constant welding voltage to heat the resistance wire within specific welding time. In our previous study, intelligent welding machine was designed to ensure the quality of the EF joint, based on the study of the temperature field in EF joint. In this paper, three experiments were used to show the difference between the intelligent welding machine and traditional welding machine. The intelligent welding machine can actively adjust the welding parameters to ensure the quality of EF joint even it was given the wrong welding voltage and welding time. Compared with the traditional welding machine, the intelligent welding machine can automatically control the maximum temperature and the depth of melting region in EF joint during the welding process, and this method applies for EF joints with various diameters or design welding parameters.

As already known, no proper control or process control parameter which absolutely guarantees a high level quality of joints made by electro-resistive welding has been established so far, especially when all possible parameters are taken into account during the welding process. Due to the process of butt-welding being very short-lived, ensuring quality of the joints is a difficult and under-researched problem. The application of non-destructive testing methods to the control interface joints is also not reliable. Therefore, further research in this area should concentrate on studying the influence of basic welding parameters, and calculating their direct or indirect impact can serve to achieve a highquality welded joint with for practice sufficient accuracy.
