Considerando que a largura das bobinas e blanks disponíveis no mercado nacional não atendem às necessidades dimensionais do produto fez-se necessária a emenda das chapas com grande precisão pelo processo de soldagem Laser CO2. O aço escolhido para tal realização foi um aço de alta resistência e baixa liga (ARBL), com limite de escoamento superior a 550 MPa. O interesse econômico desse estudo está na substituição do material tradicionalmente utilizado, um bloco de grandes dimensões em aço forjado do tipo SAE 4140B por chapas de aço laminadas a quente, a um custo 4 vezes menor. O fator técnico relevante nessa pesquisa foi a preservação das propriedades físicas, químicas e mecânicas por meio de parâmetros controlados de Soldagem Laser CO2. Buscou-se identificar e quantificar a zona termicamente afetada, analisar alterações estruturais, variação de dureza utilizando o método Brinell, e correlacionar estes resultados com a composição química e com a resistência a ruptura, obtida pelo ensaio de tração e pelo método Erichsen de embutimento, determinando a presença, ou não, de microfissuras, poros, inclusões não metálicas ou outras anomalias que pudessem comprometer a junta soldada. Foi considerada ainda a importância da realização dos ensaios para a Qualificação do Procedimento de Soldagem conforme os requisitos do ASME Code Section IX, QW 150 para os ensaios de tração e QW 160 para os ensaios de dobramento, a fim de obter a validação do mesmo... . / The objective of this work was to change a steel forged block with great dimensions by the fine sheet hot laminated steel, welded by Laser CO2, destined to manufacture rotors for electric machines until 40 MW of power, it was used steel sheet with 3 mm of thickness pilled, compacted and fixed by lifter. Considering that the width of the bobbins and blanks available in the national market do not supply the dimensional necessities of the product, it made necessary the joint of plates with great precision, by the Laser process of welding. The steel chosen for such purpose was a high-strength low alloy steel (HSLA) with 550 MPa of Yield strength. The economical interest of this study is the substitution of the traditional material, a block of great dimensions in forged steel type SAE 4140B for hot rolled steel plates, which costs 4 times less. The technical relevant factor in this research was the preservation of physical, chemical and mechanical properties using controlled parameters of Laser cutting and Laser CO2 welding. It searched to identify and quantify the heat affected zone, to analyze structural changes, hardness variation using the Brinell method, and correlate these results with the chemical composition and the rupture resistance by the tensile test and the Erichsen method to determine the presence, or not, of micro tearing, pores, non metallic inclusions or other anomalies that could compromise together the welded joint. It was also considered the importance of the realization of tests for the Qualification of the Welding Procedure in agreement with the requirements of ASME Code Section IX, QW 150 for tensile test and QW 160 for the bend test, in order to get the validation of the procedure. The obtained results indicate that Laser CO2 welding of the HSLA steel is adequate for this construction type.

Statistical modelling of the narrow gap gas metal arc welding processModenesi, P. J. January 1990 (has links)
The J-laying technique for the construction of offshore pipelines requires a fast welding process that can produce sound welds in the horizontal-vertical position. The suitability of narrow gap gas metal arc welding (NG-GMA W) process for this application was previously demonstrated. The present programme studied the influence of process parameters on the fusion characteristics of NG-GMA welding in a range of different shielding gas compositions and welding positions. Statistical techniques were employed for both designing the experimental programme and to process the data generated. A partial factorial design scheme was used to investigate the influence of input variables and their interaction in determining weld bead shape. Modelling equations were developed by multiple linear regression to represent different characteristics of the weld bead. Transformation of the response variable based on the Cox-Box method was commonly used to simplify the model format. Modelling results were analysed by graphical techniques including surface plots and a multiplot approach was developed in order to graphically assess the influence of up to four input variables on the bead shape. Conditions for acceptable bead formation were determined and the process sensitivity to minor changes in input parameters assessed. Asymmetrical base metal fusion in horizontalvertical welding is discussed and techniques to improve fusion presented. At the same time, the interaction between the power supply output characteristic and the bead geometry was studied for narrow gap joints and the effect of shielding gas composition on both process stability and fusion of the base metal was assessed. An arc instability mode that is strongly influenced by arc length, power supply characteristic and shielding gas composition was demonstrated and its properties investigated. An optimized shielding gas composition for narrow gap process was suggested.

Experimental sensitivity analysis of welding parameters during transition from globular to spray metal transfer in gas metal arc weldingLudick, Mark January 2001 (has links)
Thesis (MTech (Mechanical Engineering))--Peninsula Technikon, Cape Town, 2001 / Since the discovery of arc welding at the beginning ofthe century, metal transfer has
been a topic ofresearch interest. Metal transfer can, in fact be related to weld quality,
because it affects the arc stability. Furthermore, it determines the weld spatter,
penetration, deposition rate and welding position.
Gas Metal Arc Welding (also known as Metal Inert Gas- or MIG welding) is the most
co=on method for arc welding steels and aluminurn alloys. Approximately 40% of
the production welding in the country is accomplished by this process in which the
thermal phenomena and melting ofthe solid electrode are coupled to the plasma arc
and the weld pool. Thus the therrno- fluid behaviour of the electrode and detaching
drops can have significant effects on the subsequent weld quality and production rate.
The knowledge of how metal transfer affects this arc welding process is important for
welding control and process automation, as well as in the development of improved
welding consumables.
Gas metal arc welding has a distinct feature, indicated by the results of Lesnewich
[24], [23], that for most gases, there is a discrete metal droplet formation change
between low and high current operations. Naturally the droplet size will have a
significant influence on the properties ofthe welds.
In globular transfer which occurs at low current, the welding electrode melts and
produces large droplets (usually larger in diameter than the electrode wire diameter).
This mode of transfer is associated with high spatter levels and thus undesirable in
terms of welding economics. An increase in welding current will, for most welding!
shielding gases, produce metal transfer with smaller droplets, which is termed spray
transfer. This mode oftransfer is associated with high voltage and amperage settings,
thus producing high deposition rates limited to the flaUhorizontal position.

Control and qualification of titanium weldsYung, Kan-Chuen Winco January 1997 (has links)
The study was aimed at controlling the weld geometry of thin-plate titanium and one of its alloys (Ti-6Al-4V) by ultrasonic means and qualiFying the metals in the as-welded condition in terms of their grain sizes and mechanical properties. The alignment and symmetry of the weld pools were successfully tested by using ultrasonic shear waves. The grain sizes at the weld fusion zone were found to be related to their ultrasonic attenuation by a mathematical relationship. The temperature effect in locating weld pool radii in titanium was found at temperatures up to 600 °C. The ultrasonic velocity decreased as the temperature increased and the square of temperature affected the rate of change of the ultrasonic velocity. After compensation for the temperature effect, the maximum location error of the weld pool radius was 17 % which was comparable to previous measurement using different techniques.A positive relationship was seen between weld geometry (penetration depth and weld width) and heat input. A welding spectrum for titanium and its alloys of different thicknesses was obtained. Back shielding gas was beneficial in obtaining good welds. Both heat input rate and cooling rate were found to affect the grain size of the weld, with the cooling rate being the dominant factor. The grain size exhibited a Hall-Petch effect on mechanical properties, such as the tensile properties and fracture toughness of the weld. The phase transformation positively contributed to better mechanical properties in most cases, whilst the presence of interstitials worsened tensile properties. A system was developed in this study to utilise the above information and data for possible real-time and closed-loop control of the TIG welding process to give a desirable weld. Specifically, a process control data base was built up using software and a knowledge-based system for acceptable welding parameters, which were determined by acceptable penetration depth, grain size and mechanical properties. An algorithm was successfully written which relates the ultrasonic signal to the penetration depth of the weld. A hardware control circuit was built which took in the ultrasonic signal and converted it to a driving signal to change the welding speed and thereby change cooling rate.

Analysing the effect of FSP on MIG-laser hybrid welded 6082-T6 AA joints / Analysing the effect of friction stir processing on mig-laser hybrid welded AA 6082-T6 jointsMjali, Kadephi Vuyolwethu January 2007 (has links)
Friction Stir Processing (FSP) of aluminium alloys has been used to modify and improve the microstructure and relevant properties of fusion welded aluminium alloys. The effect of FSP on MIG-Laser Hybrid (MLH) welded aluminium alloy 6082-T6 mechanical and microstructural properties has been studied in this research. The FSP process was used on 6mm thick aluminium alloy plates and a tool was designed specifically for FSP, and the effect of varying speeds was analysed before the final FSP welds were made. The effect of FSP was analysed by optical microscopy, tensile, microhardness and fatigue testing. The aim of the study was to determine whether the FSP process has a beneficial influence on the mechanical properties and metallurgical integrity of MIG-Laser Hybrid welded 6082-T6 aluminium alloy with varying gap tolerances. Three welding processes were compared, namely combined Friction Stir Processing on MIG-Laser hybrid process (FSP-MLH), MLH and Friction Stir Welding (FSW) as part of the analysis. (FSP was carried out on MLH components when it was found that FSP is not an entirely complete welding process but rather a finishing process per se.) The aim of this dissertation is to investigate the effects of the FSP process on the weld quality of MLH welded joints and also to compare this to individual processes like FSW and MLH. This investigation was undertaken in order to gain an understanding of the effect of these processes on fatigue performance and microhardness distribution on aluminium alloy 6082-T6 weld joints.
