This paper gives a recent progress of welding process research in Japan, especially, an instance in the capability of the visualization and prediction of welding arcs, though the dynamic observations of spectral image by a high-speed digital video-camera with a monochromator and also the calculations by numerical models. The dynamic observations lead to visualizations of metal vapor behavior in...

Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is otherwise known as the Arc soldering (GTAW) process which when significant levels of weld quality or high precision are required, to represent an advanced arc process. However impact factors on this form important for its produced in single-pass welding. In investigation, autogenous was performed a carbon mild steel plate with four parametric variables. High ...

welding is an extremely complex process; however, due to its commercial importance, it is essential that a more thorough study of the various processes be undertaken. Three examples of areas requiring greater understanding of arc physics are presented. The first discusses heating or cooling of the metal at the cathode; the second describes variations in heat transfer using various shielding gas...

Tungsten Inert Gas welding (TIG) process is an important component in many industrial operations. The TIG welding parameters are the most important factors affecting the quality, productivity and cost of welding. This paper presents the influence of welding parameters like welding current, welding speed on strength of low carbon steel on AA1050 material during welding. A plan of experiments bas...

Activated tungsten inert gas welding (ATIG) is a new approach to Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) that has the potential improve weld penetration. This paper investigates effect of micro and nanoparticle size oxide flux during TIG Hastelloy C-22. The SiO<sub>2</sub> Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> fluxes in terms particle thermal stability on surface appearance, bead geo...

Welding fume contains elements that, in their pure forms, can be hazardous to worker health if inhaled or ingested. Therefore, the chemical composition of welding fume must be examined when considering fume toxicity. Various chemical analysis techniques are presented and their applicability to airborne particles is described. Knowledge of particle size is important because a given characterizat...

The present paper describes fuzzy logic simulation of shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process to predict the Quality of weld joint. It describe the quality of weld joint & effect of welding current, voltage and welding speed on tensile strength of shielded metal arc pipe welded mild steel joints. An ERW Mild steel pipe I S 1239 of 6 mm thickness and 150 mm diameter were used as the base mater...

A new generation of arc welder has recently become widely available at a price which is within reach of most amateurs and part-time mechanics, known as the MIG welder (metal-arc inert gas welder). In MIG welding the arc is ensheathed in a stream of inert gas which prevents the molten metal from oxidising. The stream of gas changes the character of the emitted radiation, and it is possible that ...
