What is the welding defects for MIG welding?

You can find pretty much all welding defects in Mig welding. There are some that are morelikely to appear than others but that is depending on the gas and power range that is being applied. The defects are: porosity, incomplete penetration (mostly in case of short circuit transfer) undercut, excessive concavity/convexity (incorrect amperage/voltage ratio), cracks (cold and hot) incomplete fusion (wrong torch angles), cold lap.


What is an incomplete osseous fusion?

Why is oxyactylene welding is not used in high responsibility fusion welding?

Oxyacetylene Welding is not used in high responsibility fusion welding because fusion welding requires two metals to be fused without melting whereas Oxyacetylene Welding involves the melting of metals so this process is not suitable. By Makeveli


What is non fusion welding and types?

non fusion welding is when there is no filler metal needed...Actually all welding is considered fusion welding, meaning the material fuses together unlike soldering. The material has to melt to fuse.


What is a nonfusion welding?

it should be called solid state welding which does not melt the base... in fusion welding the base melts as you weld.


What is different between fusion and non fusion welding?

Fusion is the blending of elements and can only be achieved by melting. Welding by definition is fusion. Brazing ,soldering etc are non fusing.


What is the difference between fusion welding an resistance welding?

Fusion welding is just any welding process which inhibites the phase trasition from solid to liquid and then back to solid state, while electric resistance welding is based on purely ohmic heating of the different parts, this heat will create fusion of the metal. So; Electric resistance welding can be said to be a type of fusion welding, but not the other way around.


How do you check the welding penetration and welding strength?

Basic test is to cut across the weld and polish the metal. Most times the weld can be seen as a different shade. Inclusions and incomplete fusion are visible You can cut strips across the weld joint and bend them to look for fracturing. Ultimate test is to x-ray the weld. Defects and incomplete fusion can be seen. Same process as an x-ray of your body. Also a section can be cut from the joint and subjected to a tensile test where the piece is literally pulled apart. A good weldor knows when he has produced a perfect weld just by observing the weld bead as it is deposited. Using the correct electrode produces a weld slightly stronger than the base metal.


What type of welding is when metal is fused together by the heat of a welding flame?

It's called Fusion Welding. You answered your own question.


Is solid state weld the same as fusion welding?

no


What is the definition of heat fusion?

heat fusion is to join things together by heat. ie plastic welding.


How do you do nonfushion carbon arc welding?

Contradiction in terms. If its "non-fusion" then it isn't welding. You probably mean brazing.
