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.

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.

The aimed of this research is to determine the feasibility and effect of the mixture of the shielding gas in the physical and mechanical properties. Low carbon steel LR grade A in a thickness 12 mm were joined in butt joint types using GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) with groove’s gap 5 mm and groove angle’s 400 with variation of shielding gas composition. The composition of shielding gas that used were 100% Ar, 100 % CO2 and 50% Ar + 50 % CO2. The measured of mechanical properties with regard to strength, hardness and toughness using, tensile test, bending test, Vickers hardness Test, and Charpy impact test respectively. The physical properties examined with optical microscope. Results show that tensile strength of welding metals are higher than raw materials. Welds metal with mixing Ar + CO shielding gas has the highest tensile strength. Hardness of weld metals with the shielding gas 100% Ar, 100 % CO2 and 50% Ar + 50 % CO2 are 244.9; 209.4; and 209.4 VHN respectively. The temperature of Charpy test was varied to find the transition temperature of the materials. The temperature that used were –60°C, -40°C, -20°C, 0°C, 20°C , and room temperature. Weld metals with various shielding gas have similar trends of toughness flux that was corellated with the microstructure of weld .

Welding is a very important part of the development and growth of the industry because it has a role in engineering, reparation, and construction. Shielded   Metal   Arc Welding (SMAW) or the conventional arc welding   process is particularly dominant in structural joints, pressure vessels and in maintenance and repair work. In welding, different metals are joined economically and at a much faster rate as compared with other fabrication processes like riveting and casting. The purpose of this research is to find out the cooling media cooler against SMAW smelter tensile strength by using the E6013 electrode. This study uses low carbon steel material that has levels Fe = 98,3%; C = 0,30%, Si = 0,23%. The material is given 75A welding current with cooling variation on the connection result using oil, water, and room temperature. The highest tensile stress value obtained in the oil cooling treatment was 844,76 N/mm2, the highest strain value was obtained on the raw materials of 16%, the highest elasticity value was obtained in the oil cooling treatment of 703.96 N/mm2. According to the research results can be concluded that the variations of cooling media greatly affect the strength of the welding connection.


With the advancement of welding techniques, Arc-welding is one of the most commonly and widely used welding technique for variety of purposes. The underside of welding to be performed makes the molten pool going downward because of gravity vector pulling affects the molten pool. The main purpose of this study is to study how the molten of electrode produced reduce on going downward and produce a good root fusion in overhead position of welding in single V-butt joint with the help of magnetic field on the workpiece. The study of magnet characteristic which includes thebehaviour of molten pool toward magnetic field, the macrostructure and microstructure and its strength should be carried out. Each magnet strength has their own characteristics that affects toward weldment on base metal.As a result, it can be concluded that having a magnetic field applies on base metal A36 low carbon steel may reduce the molten pool from going downward. The selection of a correct magnet strength and welding process may produce good and quality weldment especially in terms of its weld properties and geometry.

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.
