METAL JOINING PROCESSES
 Sometimes impossible to manufacture single unit
 Different methods are used to join metals/alloys to complete
the single unit
 The processing techniques used to fabricate a given shape
are called joining processes

METAL JOINING PROCESSES
 Mechanical joining
Welding
Soldering and brazing
Adhesive joining
Riveting
Screwed fastening
 Electrical and electronic joining
Soft soldering
Hard soldering and brazing
Crimping

WELDING
07-02-2019 05:25 5
WELDING
 Welding is the process of joining two metallic pieces
together in permanent manner
 Heat or pressure and sometimes both are used to
achieve the required joint
 The coalescence is obtained when atoms of the two
pieces to be joined come very close to each other
 Advantage: portable, permanent, stronger than the
parent materials with a filler metal
 Disadvantage: Expensive manual labor, high energy and
dangerous, does not allow disassemble and defects
07-02-2019 05:25 6
CLASSIFICATION OF WELDING PROCESSES
 Based on the composition of the joints:
Autogeneous joining
No filler material used
Solid phase welding and resistance welding
Homogeneous joining
Filler material same as of parent material
Ex. Arc, gas and thermit welding
Hetrogeneous joining
Filler material different of parent material
Ex. Soldering and Brazing
07-02-2019 05:25 7
CLASSIFICATION OF WELDING PROCESSES
 Based on the application of pressure:
Fusion welding
Required joint is obtained by heating the two metal
pieces to liquid state locally at the place of the joint
Plastic or Pressure welding
The two metal pieces are heated to some
temperature below their melting temperature and
the required joint is obtained by applying sufficient
pressure between the two pieces
Solid-state welding

WELDABILITY
 Weldability of a material is defined as its ability to be
welded
 Depends on various factors such as metallurgical
changes that occur during the process of welding, its
hardness, and gas evolution and absorption, extent of
oxidation and others
 Low carbon steel (c<0.12%) have the best weldability
amongst metals
 As the carbon content increases, weldability decreases
07-02-2019 05:25 11
WELDING TERMINOLOGY
 Filler Metals:
 The material that you add to fill
the space between two joining
metals, during the welding
process
 Welding rod
Does not conduct electric
current
 Welding electrode
Conduct electric current
Consumable (shielded metal
arc welding)
Non-consumable (gas
tungsten arc welding)07-02-2019 05:25 12
WELDING TERMINOLOGY
 Fluxes
Flux refers to a material
used to dissolve oxides
and release trapped gases
and slag (impurities) from
the base metal
Paste, powder or liquid
It is fluid and active at the
melting point of the filler
metal
