Welding is a manufacturing process, which is carried out for joining of metals by Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding. This is the one types of Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), in which Argon and Helium is used as a inert gas. Shielding gas Argon and Helium is used and consumable electrode is used which also plays role of conductor. MIG welding is versatile, gives very little loss of alloying elements a...

The ethernet technology is used in multi-arc submerged arc welding systems communicate with each other. The structure of twin-arc high-speed SAW (Submerged arc welding) equipments based on Ethernet is proposed. The welding equipment technical requirement for Ethernet is discussed. The crucial implementations of Ethernet TCP / IP in the welding equipment is presented including designs of ARM (Ad...

This paper focuses on Friction Stir Welding (FSW), a fairly recent technique, invented by The Welding Institute (TWI) in 1991, that utilizes a non-consumable rotating welding tool to generate frictional heat and plastic deformation at the welding location; thereby, affecting the formation of a joint while the material is in the solid state. In particular, FSW can be used to join high-strength a...

Welding of metals and alloys is important to Dentistry for fabrication of dental prostheses. Several methods of soldering metals and alloys are currently used. The purpose of this study was to assess, using the flexural strength testing, the efficacy of two processes Nd:YAG laser and TIG (tungsten inert gas) for welding of pure Ti, Co-Cr and Ni-Cr alloys. Sixty cylindrical specimens were prepar...

Welding-related asthma is well recognised but less is known about rhinitis in relation to welding. The aim here, was to study associations between welding, rhinitis and asthma in a general population sample, and factors influencing selection into and out of a welding occupation.Adult-onset asthma and non-infectious rhinitis were investigated in the international multicentre population-based Res...

Experimental study was conducted to assess personal welding fumes exposure toward welders during an aluminum metal inert gas (MIG) process. The welding process was carried out by a welding machine attached to a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) workbench. A dummy welder was used to replicate welder during welding works and was attached with sampling pumps and filter cassettes for welding fumes s...

Since the control system of the welding gun pose in whole‐position welding is complicated and nonlinear, an intelligent control system of welding gun pose for a pipeline welding robot based on an improved radial basis function neural network (IRBFNN) and expert system (ES) is presented in this paper. The structure of the IRBFNN is constructed and the improved genetic algorithm is a...

In this paper, to improve the efficiency of welding and user convenience in the shipbuilding industry, a PC-based off-line programming (OLP) technique and the development of a robot transfer unit are presented. The developed OLP system is capable of not only robot motion simulations but also automatic generations of a series of robot programs. The strength of the developed OLP system lies in it...

Performance of a direct-reading handy equipment for dust counting in workroom air, PDR (MIE, USA), was field-tested in comparison with the results of low-volume air sampling-gravimetry. Application in 64 workplaces of various type dust work with dust concentrations of up to 1.6 mg/m3 showed that the agreement was generally good with a correlation coefficient (r) >0.64. The calculated regression...
