AbstrakPada proses produksi, pengaturan parameter poses memegang peranan penting terhadap tercapainya mutu produk yang dihasilkan. Pada proses pengelasan, salah satu parameter proses pengelasan yang harus diperhatikan adalah besar arus pengelasan. Kajian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui besar kuat arus yang sesuai pada proses pengelasan material ST 37 menggunakan proses pengelasan MIG (Metal Inert Gas).  Pengujian dilakukan dengan memvariasikan besar kuat arus pengelasan yaitu pada 90A, 100A, 110A serta 120A. Pengujian tarik dilakukan terhadap hasil pengelasan tersebut. Hasil pengujian tarik menunjukkan, pengelasan menggunakan kuat arus sebesar 110A memberikan nilai yang maksimum pada beberapa besaran pengujian.  Untuk nilai tegangan tarik, σ memiliki nilai 16.9 kg/mm2, modulus elastisitas, E, 3.14 kg/mm2 serta Regangan ε, 5.42%. Kata kunci: pengelasan, Metal Inert Gas, Tegangan Tarik, modulus elastisitas  AbstractThe appropriate production parameter process plays an important role in fulfill the quality of the products such as mechanical properties like tensile strength and percentage of elongation of MIG welded joints.  Likewise, in the welding process, one of the welding process parameters that is welding current must be considered, since the welding current is most influential parameters affecting weld penetration, deposition rate, weld bead geometry and quality of weld metal. Variation of welding current on MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding process on ST 37 specimen   was to examine the effects on like tensile strength and percentage of elongation and elasticity modulus.  From the experiment, it is found that when welding current increased up to 110 Ampere the tensile strength tends to incline then slightly decline when welding current increased, modulus elasticity value and percentage of elongation value as well.  The maximum value of tensile strength 16.9 kg/mm2 percentage of elongation value 5.42%. and modulus of elasticity 3.14 kg/mm2 were gained at 110 ampere welding current Keywords: welding process, Metal Inert Gas, Tensile strength, elasticity modulus ,percentage of elongation

Abstract Austenitic stainless steel (ASS) is widely fabricated by tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding for aesthetic look and superior mechanical properties while compared to other arc welding process. Hitherto, the limitation of this process is low depth of penetration and less productivity. To overcome this problem activated tungsten inert gas (A-TIG) welding process is employed as an alternative. In this investigation the welding performance of conventional TIG welding is compared with A-TIG process using TiO2 and SiO2 flux with respect to weld bead geometry. The experimental investigation on A-TIG welding of ASS-201 grade shows TiO2 flux helps in achieve higher penetration as compared to SiO2 flux. While welding with SiO2 the hardness in HAZ and weld region higher than that of TIG welding process.

This study involves the validating of thermal analysis during TIG Arc welding of 1.4418 steel using finite element analyses (FEA) with experimental approaches. 3D heat transfer simulation of 1.4418 stainless steel TIG arc welding is implemented using ABAQUS software (6.14, ABAQUS Inc., Johnston, RI, USA), based on non-uniform Goldak’s Gaussian heat flux distribution, using additional DFLUX subroutine written in the FORTRAN (Formula Translation). The influences of the arc current and welding speed on the heat flux density, weld bead geometry, and temperature distribution at the transverse direction are analyzed by response surface methodology (RSM). Validating numerical simulation with experimental dimensions of weld bead geometry consists of width and depth of penetration with an average of 10% deviation has been performed. Results reveal that the suggested numerical model would be appropriate for the TIG arc welding process. According to the results, as the welding speed increases, the residence time of arc shortens correspondingly, bead width and depth of penetration decrease subsequently, whilst simultaneously, the current has the reverse effect. Finally, multi-objective optimization of the process is applied by Derringer’s desirability technique to achieve the proper weld. The optimum condition is obtained with 2.7 mm/s scanning speed and 120 A current to achieve full penetration weld with minimum fusion zone (FZ) and heat-affected zone (HAZ) width.

The prediction of the optimal weld bead width is an important aspect in shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process as it is related to the strength of the weld. This paper focuses on investigation of the development of the simple and accurate model for prediction of weld bead geometry. The experiment used welding current, arc length, welding speed, welding gap and electrode diameter as input parameters. While output parameters are bead width, depth of penetration and weld reinforcement. A number of 33 mild steel plate specimens had undergone the SMAW welding process. The experimental data was used to develop mathematical models using SPSS software. The actual and predicted values of the weld bead geometry are compared. The proposed models shows positive correlation to the real process.

D2 Steel

Plasma Transferred Arc (PTA) process is increasingly used in applications where enhancement of wear, corrosion and heat resistance of metals surface is required. The shape of weld bead geometry affected by the PTA welding process parameters is an indication of the quality of the weld. PTA is a versatile method of depositing high-quality metallurgically fused deposits on relatively low cost surfaces. The overlay deposited is an alloy that is hard and more corrosion resistant than counterparts laid down by Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) or Oxy Fuel Welding (OFW) processes. Weld deposits are characterized by very low levels of inclusions, oxides, and discontinuities. This process produces smooth deposits that significantly reduce the amount of post weld machining required. Metal-Mechanic industry continuously requires recovering tool steel components subjected to severe wear. The steel known as D2 is considered to be a high carbon, high chromium cold work tool steel. In this research, weld beads were deposited on D2 steel by using PTA process with different parameters as welding current and travel speed using base nickel filler metal. In order to evaluate the metallurgical features on the weld beads/substrate interface a microstructural characterization was performed by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and to evaluate the mechanical properties was conducted the wear test.

Different Levels

In present experimental study an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of three machine input parameters namely current,voltage and nozzle to plate distance (NPD) on tensile strength of weld bead and weld penetration. Three different levels (current 180, 190, 200 in ampere. Voltage 21, 24, 27 in volt and NPD 12, 16, 20 in mm) have been considered in order to evaluate the effect of these parameters on tensile strength and penetration of weld bead. Taguchi method has been employed to abate the number of experiments and analyze the effect of various parameters. Orthogonal array L9 was used for data optimization. On the basis of experimental data, the mathematical technique has been developed by using analysis of variance. Results were obtained from each parameter at different levels for tensile strength and weld bead geometry. Based on these results different parameters were identified for maximum tensile strength and maximum weld penetration. Result show that maximum tensile strength was 390.8 Mpa at 200 ampere current, 27 volt and 16 mm NPD where as maximum weld penetration was 3.20 mm at 200 ampere current, 24 volt and 12 mm NPD
