The welding market is changing globally, becoming eco-friendly, robotized and automated. The tungsten inert gas welding (TIG) process is indispensable in industries that require high-quality welds with the absence of spatter and fumes. However, the production rate of TIG welding is very low, which limits its many applications. The present study introduces a novel TIG welding method called super-TIG welding. Super-TIG welding is able to produce a high production rate of welds compared to other fusion welding methods. In super-TIG welding, the novel C-type filler is used, which is different from the conventional TIG welding of circular wire. The relations of the heat input ratio in super-TIG welding to weld pool length and weld bead geometry were measured using the Inconel 625 C-filler. Two types of deposition techniques were used for a bead-on-plate welds, such as stringer beads and oscillation beads. The weld pool and bead geometry measurements are found to be different between stringer beads and oscillation bead techniques. The length of the molten pool and bead size were higher for oscillation beads over the stringer beads. These changes were associated with the difference in heat transfer contact area and bead height.

A three-dimensional model is set up to predict the surface depression of a tungsten inert gas (TIG) weld pool in a full-penetration condition in order to find out the relation between pool depression and weld penetration. It solves pool surface depression, fluid flow and heat transfer simultaneously and determines the configuration of a weld pool surface based on the dynamic balance among arc pressure, pool gravity and surface tension at the deformed weld pool surface. In the numerical simulation, difficulties associated with the irregular shape of the deformed weld pool surface and the liquid/solid interface have been overcome by adopting a boundary-fitted non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. A series of data about pool surface depression under different TIG welding conditions are obtained. The validity of the model is verified through TIG welding experiments.

Abstract Self-developed high speed tandem TIG welding equipment were adopted to manufacture titanium welded tubes with high efficiency and high quality. The joint made by this high efficient welding process met Chinese standard requirements. A coupled electrode, arc and weld pool numerical model was also developed to investigate temperature and velocity distributions, and energy propagation of this welding process. The numerical results showed that the Marangoni stress was much higher than the arc shear stress, and was mainly positive after leading and trailing arcs in the x and y directions, so the molten metal flowed backward on the top weld pool surface. Previous studies proposed that a “pull-push” flow pattern defined as a backward molten metal flow after the leading arc and a forward molten metal flow before the trailing arc existed on the top weld pool surface in tandem arc welding processes, while it was not observed in this case. The calculated arc efficiency of the high speed tandem TIG welding was about 79.8%.

Abstract In order to study the dynamic characteristics of the weld pool surface during the TIG welding process of the filler wire, an observation test platform for the study of the three-dimensional surface behavior evolution of the TIG weld pool based on the grid structure laser was used to observe the weld pool surface and obtain the reflection grid laser image. The three-dimensional surface evolution of the fixed-point TIG welding pool is accurately restored by the three-dimensional recovery algorithm of the weld pool surface, so as to obtain the three-dimensional surface morphology of the weld pool. The difference between the obtained weld pool height and the experimental results is very small, and the results are basically the same.
