Q

What is welding?

A

Welding is the consolidation of two materials by means of temperature nd/or pressure to cause materials to diffuse at the joint. Welding is usually used on metals and thermoplastics but can also be used on wood

Welding is the most common consolidation process

Q

What are some common types of defects with welding?

A

Some common welding defects are:
* Cracks - cavities
* Inclusions - unacceptable weld shape
* Incomplete fusion - incomplete penetraion
* Arc strikes - spatter
* Metallurgical changes - excessive distortion

Q

Where are bead welds used?

A

Bead welds involve limited penetration so they are used on thin materials or surface modification.

Q

What distortions or warpage may occur during welding operations?

A
  • V-groove butt weld where te top of the joint contracts more than the bottom
  • One-sided fillet weld in a T-joint
  • Two-fillet wel in a T-joint with a high vertical web

Q

What is the weldability of a material?

A

Weldability is a measure of how easy it is to make a weld in a particular parent material, without cracks, with adequate mechanical properties for service, and resistance to service degradation.

The weldability of a material is only a relative rating.

Weldablity tables such as 30-2 give guidlines for a umber of materials and processes

Q

What factors must you consider to produce a proper weld?

A

The faactors you must consider are:
* Selection of the process and fillers
* Design of the joint
* Parallel considerations apply to brazing and soldering

17
Q

What is brazing?

A

Brazing is a metal-joining process in which two or more metal items are joined together by melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint, with the filler metal having a lower melting point than the adjoining metal.

Unlike welding, brazzing does not involve melting the workpieces

18
Q

What is soldering?

A

Soldering is a process in which two or more items are joined by melting and putting a filler metal into the joint, the filler metal having a lower melting point than the adjoining metal.

Unlike welding, brazzing does not involve melting the workpieces

Q

What is arc weling?

A

Q

What are the three types of metal transfer during arc welding?

A
