3. What is WELDING
in engineering, any process in which
two or more pieces of metal are
joined together by the application of
heat, pressure, or a combination of
both.
10. sheilded meTAl ArC
Welding
It is performed by striking an arc
between a coated-metal electrode
and the base metal.
Flux- the coating of the metal
electrode will form as shield to the
molten metal.
14. AdvAnTAges of smAW
High quality welds are made rapidly
at a low cost.
Can be used easily even to thick and
wide work piece to be joined.
Can be used from thinner to thicker
materials.
15. disAdvAnTAges smAW
Consumes bigger electric current
Dirty work finish
Root pass is lower than TIG and MIG
Prone to slag inclusions
Weld deposits is prone to blue holes
17. submerged ArC Welding
(sAW)
Is a process in which welding is
done by an automatic electrode
feeding machine wherein the tip of
the electrode is submerged into a
granular flux which shields the arc
and the molten metal.
21. SAW APPlicATioNS
widely used in heavy steel plate
fabrication work.
welding of structural shapes.
longitudinal seam of larger diameter pipe.
manufacture of machine components for
all types of heavy industry.
manufacture of vessels.
pressure and storage tanks.
22. AdvANTAgeS of SAW
high quality of the weld metal.
extremely high deposition rate and speed.
smooth, uniform finished weld with no spatter.
little or no smoke.
no arc flash, thus minimal need for protective
clothing.
high utilization of electrode wire.
easy automation for high-operator factor.
normally, no involvement of manipulative skills.
23. diSAdvANTAgeS of SAW
used only to weld mild and low-alloy high-strength
steels.
Unseen arc and puddle can cause poor
penetration.
high-heat input, slow-cooling cycle can be
a problem when welding quenched and
tempered steels.
limited-position welding process only flat
and horizontal
25. flUX cored Arc WeldiNg
(fcAW)
is an automatic or semi-automatic
electric arc welding process that
uses an arc between a continuously
fed flux-filled electrode and the weld
pool. The process is used with
shielded gas from a flux contained
within the tubular electrode with or
without additional shielding from an
externally supplied gas.
29. Two Types of FCAW
no shielding gas
- using flux core in the tubular consumable
electrode
uses a shielding gas
- gas that must be supplied by an external
supply. This is known informally as "dual shield"
welding.
30. Uses of FCAW
Mild and low alloy steels
Stainless steels
Some high nickel alloys
Some wear facing/surfacing
alloys
31. Advantages of FCAW
FCAW may be an "all-position" process with the
right filler metals (the consumable electrode)
No shielding gas needed making it suitable for
outdoor welding and/or windy conditions
A high-deposition rate process (speed at which
the filler metal is applied) in the 1G/1F/2F
Some "high-speed" (e.g., automotive
applications)
Less pre cleaning of metal required
Metallurgical benefits from the flux such as the
weld metal being protected initially from external
factors until the flux is chipped away
32. diSAdvANTAgeS of fcAW
Melted Contact Tip – happens when the electrode actually
contacts the base metal, thereby fusing the two metals.
Irregular wire feed – typically a mechanical problem
Porosity – the gases (specifically those from the flux-core)
don’t escape the welded area before the metal hardens,
leaving holes in the welded metal
More costly filler material/wire as compared to GMAW
Less suitable for applications that require painting, such as
automotive body works.
Cannot be used in a rugged environment limited to shop
use only.
35. GMAW or MIG
is an electric arc welding process which joins
metals by heating them with an arc established
between a continuous filler metal (consumable)
electrode and the work.
Shielding of the arc and molten weld pool is
obtained entirely from an externally supplied
gas or gas mixture both inert and reactive
gases.
41. Advantages of GMAW
Produced High quality welds & much faster than with
SMAW and TIG welding.
No flux is used no slag entrapment in the weld metal.
Very little loss of alloying elements as the metal
transfers across the arc.
Minor weld spatter is produced, and it is easily
removed.
42. Advantages of GMAW
Versatile and can be used with a wide variety of
metals and alloys, such as Aluminum, Copper,
Magnesium,
Nickel, Iron and many of their alloys.
The process can be operated in several ways, including
semi- and fully automatic.
MIG welding is widely used by many industries for
welding a broad variety of materials, parts, and
structures.
43. Disadvantages of GMAW
IT cannot be used in the vertical or overhead welding
positions due to the high heat input and the fluidity of
the weld puddle.
Has complex equipment compared to equipment used
for the shielded metal-arc welding process.
45. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding
Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) is an AW
process that
uses a nonconsumable tungsten electrode and
an inert gas for arc shielding. The term TIG
welding (tungsten inert gas welding) is often
applied to this process (in Europe, WIG
welding is the term—the chemical symbol for
tungsten is W, for Wolfram).
46.
47. Temperature and shelding
gases
Tungsten is a good electrode
material due to its high melting
point of 3410C (6170F).
Typical shielding gases include
argon, helium, or a mixture of these
gas elements.
48. APPLICATION
GTAWisapplicable tonearly allmetals
in a wide range of stock thicknesses.
It can also be used for joining
various combinations of dissimilar
metals.
Its most common applications are
for aluminum and stainless steel.
49. LIMITATIONS
Cast irons, wrought irons, and of
course tungsten aredifficult to weld
by GTAW.
In steel welding applications, GTAW
is generally slower and more costly
than the consumable electrode AW
processes, except when thin
sections are involved and very-high-quality
welds are require.
50. ADVANTAGES
Advantages of GTAW in the
applications to which it is suited
include high-quality welds, no weld
spatter because no filler metal is
transferred across the arc, and little
or no post weld cleaning because no
flux is used.
52. Plasma Arc Welding
Plasma arc welding (PAW) is a special
form of gas (TAW) in which a constricted
plasma arc is directed at the weld area.
In PAW, a tungsten electrode is
contained in a specially designed nozzle
that focuses a high-velocity stream of
inert gas (e.g., argon or argon–hydrogen
mixtures) into the region of the arc to
form a highvelocity,intensely hot plasma
arc stream
53.
54. TEMPERATURES
Temperatures in plasma arc welding
reach 17,000C (30,000F) or greater,
hot enough to melt any known
metal.
The reason why temperatures are so
high in PAW (significantly) higher
than those in GTAW) derives from
the constriction of the arc.
55. ADVANTAGES
its advantages in these applications
include good arc stability,better
penetration control than most other
AW processes, high travel speeds,
and excellent weld quality.
The process can be used to weld
almost any metal, including
tungsten.
56. LIMITATIONS
Difficult-to-weld metals with
PAWinclude bronze, cast irons, lead,
and magnesium.
Other limitations include high
equipment cost and larger torch size
than other AW operations,which
tends to restrict access in some joint
configurations.
57. Carbon arc welding
Carbon arc welding (CAW) is an arc-welding
process in which a non
consumable carbon (graphite)
electrode is used.
It has historical importance because
it was the first arc-welding process
to be developed, but its commercial
importance today is practically nil.
58. APPLICATIONS
The carbon arc process is used as a
heat source for brazing and for
repairing iron castings.
It can also be used in some
applications for depositing wear-resistant
materials on surfaces.
Graphite electrodes for welding have
been largely superseded by
tungsten(in GTAW and PAW).
60. Oxygen Fuel Gas Welding
(OFW)
is a group of welding processes
which join metals by heating with
a fuel gas flame or flares with or
without the application of pressure
and with or without the use of filler
metal.
61. Types of Oxy-fuel Gas Welding
Oxy-Acetylene or Oxygen- Acetylene Gas
Welding
Oxy-Hydrogen or Oxygen- Hydrogen Gas
Welding
Methylacetone-Propadiene Gas Welding
Pressure Gas Welding.
62. Advantages of Oxy-fuel
Gas Welding
Easy to use both welding and cutting
Controlled heat input
Controlled bead size
Convenient to use in welding thin sheets, tubes
and small diameter pipes
63. Disadvantages of Oxy-Fuel
Gas Weldinmoo
Cannot be use to weld on thick work
piece.
Expensive gas
66. Resistance Welding
is a process in which the fusing temperature is
generated at the joint by the resistance to the flow of an
electrical current.
is accomplished by clamping two or more sheets of
metal between copper electrodes and then passing an
electrical current through them. When the metals are
heated to a melting temperature, forging pressure is
applied through either a manual or automatic means to
weld the pieces together.
Two common types are Spot and Seam welding
67. 2 Types of Resistance
Welding
SPOT WELDING
SEAM WELDING
68. SPOT WELDING
The metal to be joined is
placed between two
electrodes and pressure
is applied.
A charge of electricity is
sent from one electrode
through the material to
the other electrode.
69.
70.
71. SEAM Welding
is
like spot welding
except that the
spots overlap each
other, making a
continuous weld
seam.
