Welding
TIG Welding (GTAW Welding)
Gas Tungsten Arc WeldingIn TIG welding an arc is
formed between a non-consumable tungsten electrode and the metal being welded. Gas is fed through the torch to shield the electrode and molten weld pool.
GTAW Welding is mostly used for high quality and precision welding.
MIG Welding (GMAW Welding)
o Gas Metal Arc Weldingo MIG welding is a
commonly used high deposition rate welding process.
o It doesn't require a lot of skill to weld with MIG welding.
Flux Cored Welding (FCAW Welding)
Flux Cored Welding
Flux cored welding is a commonly used high deposition rate welding process, that adds the convenience of flux to the welding simplicity of MIG welding.
Stick Welding (SMAW Welding)
Stick Welding Stick welding is one of
the most widely used welding processes.
The flux covering the electrode melts during welding.
This forms the gas and slag to shield the arc and molten weld pool.
The slag must be chipped off the weld bead after welding.
Resistance Welding (RSW Welding)
× Resistance Welding ×Resistance welding
uses the application of electric current and mechanical pressure to create a weld between two pieces of metal.
×Weld electrodes conduct the electric current to the two pieces of metal as they are forged together.
Electron Beam Welding (EBW Welding)
Electron Beam Welding ◦ A fusion joining process
that will produce a weld by directing a beam of high energy electrons to heat the metal being welded.
◦ This welder also uses vacuum suction so that it can make pure and high quality welds.
Brazing and Soldering
Soldering and Brazing is where parts are joined without melting the base metal.
Soldering ◦ Soldering is mostly used
for electrical connection Brazing
◦ Brazing is only used for mechanical joints because of high temperatures.
Welding Discontinuities
Incomplete Fusion◦A weld discontinuity
is when fusion does not occur between weld metal and fusion faces or adjoining weld beads.
Welding Discontinuities
Undercut◦A groove melted into
the base metal, left unfilled by weld metal.
Overlap◦The protrusion of
weld metal beyond the weld root.
Welding Discontinuities
Underfill ◦Where The filler
metals extend below the adjacent surface of the base metal.
Incomplete Joint Penetration◦In a groove weld; the
metal does not extend through the joint thickness.
Weld Cracking
Here is a example of weld cracking.
As you can see this is a very bad weld!!!
Acceptable Welding.
Here is a convex fillet weld without discontinuities.
I can tell this was made by a good welder.
