Why is a welding machine not adjusted when a welder is welding?

two reasons i can think of: 1 - Probably dont need to, usually welding material of constant thickness. 2 - The transformer is mechanically adjusted on most welders, this means that that there would be a possibility for electricity jumping in the transformer, and premature failure, or fire.


Why use stitch welding?

Stitch welding, also known as a Staggard welding, is the process of welding to base materials in many short sections. This process gives a weld less strength, but usually keeps the material from warping too much since you use half as much heat. When strength is critical, full penetration welds may be necessary and it is best to have the material well clamped to a solid surface.


What you know about the effect of mechanical behaviour on the ferrous material by friction welding at the tension?

Friction Welding can produce welds that have tensile strengths as strong as the parent material. The design must account for the weld. Sharp edges must not be present near the weld joint.


What is the difference between friction stir welding and friction welding?

Friction stir welding also known as FSW means that the metal is not melted during the process of joining. This is a solid-state process in which you use a third "body" tool to join two surfaces. Between the tool and material a lot of heat is created which results in a soft region in the metal close to the FSW tool. Friction welding or FRW is also a solid-state welding process whereby heat is generated through friction between a moving tool and the component being worked on. A so-called lateral force "upsets" the materials being joined in such a way as they are fused. No melt occurs during the process, friction welding is therefore not really a welding process in the sense of electrode or gas welding. It is a technique for forging metals together. Friction welding is commonly used with special metals in the aviation and the automotive industries.

What tack welding size and spacing is needed in relationship to material thickness?

If tack welding is just for the purpose of holding the part in place then the welding tack size should be enough to hold it in place and should not exceed the final welding size. Spacing and number of tacks can vary depending on your requirement, but if enough space is available then try to avoid the consecutive tacks in the heat affected zone area of the previous welded tack. Usually spacing of 25 to 30mm is enough, increase the spacing as there is an increase in the leg size of the tack weld.

How do you calculate welding filler metal in mig welding?

A number of factors go into this: base material thickness, joining material thickness, wire thickness, shielding gas composition, angle of weld, etc. The best way to determine this is to measure your material, then open your MIG welder, find the wire size of the spool, and read the chart inside of the MIG Welder door.


Is post heating required for carbon steel material above 19.05mm thickness?

It depends on how hot it gets, but if you are talking about welding temperature then most definately.


What is the maximum thickness for laser welding?

The thickness of the laser welding machine depends on the power of the laser generator inside the Laser Welding Machine, the thickness of the object to be welded. These two points are the most important.

What types of welding used for 8 mm thickness metals?

For welding 8 mm thickness metals, common methods include MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding, TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding, and stick welding (SMAW - Shielded Metal Arc Welding). The choice depends on the type of metal and specific requirements.
