Metal Joining

The process of joining two metal parts together, either temporarily or permanently, with or without heat or pressure.

Materials Joining Methods

Methods used to join materials together, including mechanical fastening, welding, brazing, and soldering.

Riveted Joints

A type of mechanical joint where a cylindrical bar with a head (rivet) is used to join two pieces of metal by inserting it through holes and then hammering the tail over.

Screwed Joints

A type of mechanical joint where a threaded fastener (bolt) is used to connect two pieces of metal by screwing it through holes and securing it with a nut.

Why are Joining Processes Important?

The importance of joining processes lies in making products that would be too large or difficult to manufacture otherwise. It also allows for easier assembly and disassembly for maintenance purposes.

Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)

A welding process where a consumable electrode coated in flux is used to melt and fuse metal together, creating a strong joint. The flux protects the weld pool from atmospheric contamination.

Welding

A fabrication process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by melting them at the joining interface and using a filler material to create a strong joint.

Study Notes

Production Technology - Lecture 2: Joining Processes

  • Material joining is the process of joining two metal parts, either temporarily or permanently, with or without heat or pressure.
  • Key joining methods include mechanical fastening, adhesive bonding, welding, soldering, brazing, and self-secured joints.
  • Mechanical fastening, is a process for creating either temporary or permanent joints.
    • Two major types of mechanical assembly exist: -Allowing for disassembly using a third-party component -Creating a permanent joint with no possibility for disassembly
    • Types of mechanical fastening include riveted and screwed joints.
  • Riveted joints are permanent fastenings used in structural work.
    • A rivet is a cylindrical bar with a head integral to it.
    • The portion of the rivet is called the shank or body (lower portion called tail)
    • Riveted joints are used in structural work, ship building, bridges, tanks, and boiler shells.
    • They are widely used for joining light metals.
    • Common rivet types include solid, tubular, semi-tubular, bifurcated, and compression rivets.
  • Screwed joints are widely used in machines where parts need to be connected or disconnected easily without damage.
    • A screwed joint is composed of bolt and nut.
    • Common threaded fastener types include bolts, screws, studs, and nuts.
    • Bolts have an external thread and require a nut to be inserted into holes in the parts.
    • Screws are externally threaded fasteners that are inserted into a blind threaded hole and require no nut.
    • Studs are externally threaded fasteners without a head, while nuts are internally threaded for connecting.
    • Set screws are used to fasten collars, gears, and pulleys to shafts. -Washer types include plain (flat), spring, lock, and split lock washers. These play roles in dampening vibrations, preventing loosening of bolts/screws, and providing tension.
  • Adhesive bonding uses a filler material to join closely spaced parts via surface attachment.
    • It's used with similar and dissimilar materials like metals, plastics, ceramics, wood, and paper.
    • Adhesive joints are typically weaker than welded, brazed, or soldered joints.
  • Soldering joins metal parts by heating and running a low-melting-point alloy (usually tin & lead).
    • Soldering alloys melt at temperatures below 300°C to prevent damage to base metals.
    • This produces a lower-strength joint compared to other types.
  • Brazing involves heating base metal to red-hot and filling the gap with molten metal (melting temperature above 450°C but below base metal`s melting point) to form a permanent joint.
    • Filler metals for brazing are often copper alloys (Cu-Zn and Cu-Ag).
    • These alloys form alloys with iron and have high strength.
  • Self-secured joints involve folding and interlocking thin sheet edges to create secure attachments without additional joining processes.
    • Typically used for light-gauge sheet metal fabrications less than 1.6 mm thick.
  • Welding is a fabrication process joining materials (usually metals or thermoplastics) through melting the joining interface.
    • A filler material may be added to the molten pool to form a strong weld.
  • Welding process classification is based on the source of energy.
    • Types include gas welding (using fuel gases and oxygen), arc welding (using electric arc), resistance welding (heat generation via current flow), solid-state welding, thermo-chemical welding, and radiant (laser or electron beam) energy welding.
  • Welding applications are extensive, including automotive bodies, aircraft frames, railway wagons, machine frames, submarines, storage tanks, oil/gas pipelines, boilers, pressure vessels, bridges, ship building, and machinery repair.
