Study Notes
GTAW Process: Helium vs Argon
- Helium gas provides deeper penetration compared to Argon gas during Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) under similar conditions
Ultrasonic Welding
- Ultrasonic welding is effective for joining thin sheets of soft materials
Metallurgical Continuity
- Diffusion of atoms and grain boundary formation establishes metallurgical continuity between two substrates
Temperature and Bonding Time
- Higher temperatures lead to shorter bonding times during metal bonding
Weld Joint Cleanliness
- A clean weld joint is free from impurities, inclusions, and slag
Hardenability and Weldability
- High hardenability in steel reduces weldability
Welding High Carbon Steel
- A high cooling rate during welding of high-carbon steel results in high hardness
Baking of Electrode
- Baking of electrodes is beneficial for ensuring consistency in the electrode coating
Joining Techniques
- Joining techniques include welding, brazing, and soldering - Machining is not a joining technique
Types of Welding
- Oxy-acetylene welding uses gas as a heat source
Riveting
- Riveting is a joining technique
Major Element in Steel
- Iron is the major element in steel
Tensile Test
- Tensile test can determine the yield stress of a material
