1-Welding Definition

Welding is a material joining process in which two or more parts are joined together at their contacting surfaces by a suitable application of heat and/or pressure. In some welding process a filler material is added to facilitate coalescence. Welding is most commonly associated with metallic parts but for plastics also it is used.

Welding
Advantage: 1. Provides permanent joint. 2. The welded joint can be stronger than the parent materials . 3. The welding joint most economical method to join in terms of material usage and fabrication costs. Limitations: 1. Expensive in the terms of Labor costs (performed manually). 2. Dangerous because they involve the use of high energy. 3. Can suffer from certain quality defects that are difficult to detect.

3-Welding Applications
General Applications Welding is vastly being used for construction of transport tankers for transporting oil, water, milk and fabrication of welded tubes and pipes, chains, LPG cylinders and other items. Steel furniture, gates, doors and door frames, body and other parts of white goods items such as refrigerators, washing machines, microwave ovens and many other items of general applications are fabricated by welding. Pressure Vessels One of the first major use of welding was in the fabrication of pressure vessels. Welding made considerable increases in the operating temperatures and pressures possible as compared to riveted pressure vessels.

I-Liquid state welding processes (Fusion)


Use heat to melt the base metals. A filler metal is added. A fusion welding with no filler is referred to as autogenous weld. There are two inherent problems with fusion welding: Effect of localized heating and rapid cooling on the microstructure and properties of the parent metals. Effect of residual stresses developed in the parent metals due to restrained expansion or contraction. This effect the impact of fatigue life of weldment

II-Solid state welding processes.


In solid state welding the surfaces to be joined are brought into close proximity by: 1. Heating the surfaces without causing melting and applying normal pressure. 2. Providing relative motion between the two surfaces and applying light normal pressure. 3. Applying high pressure without heating. In these processes the materials remain in solid state and welding is achieved through the application of heat and pressure, or high pressure only (No melting, No fillers ).

Solid state welding processes Examples


1. Friction welding (FW). 2. Diffusion welding (DFW). 3. Ultrasonic welding (USW ).

1-Friction welding (FRW)


Coalescence is achieved by the heat of friction between two surfaces.

3/29/2013

Prof.Dr.Adel M. abdelmaboud

30

2-Diffusion welding (DFW)


Two surfaces are held together under pressure at an at an elevated temperature and the parts coalesce by solid state fusion.

3/29/2013

Prof.Dr.Adel M. abdelmaboud

31

Diffusion welding (DFW) is a solid state welding process by which two metals (which may be dissimilar) can be bonded together. Diffusion involves the migration of atoms across the joint, due to concentration gradients. The two materials are pressed together at an elevated temperature usually between 50 and 70% of the melting point. The pressure is used to relieve the void that may occur due to the different surface topographies.

3-Ultrasonic welding (USW )


Moderate pressure is applied between the two parts with ultrasonic oscillating motion

III-Solid / Liquid state bonding processes


In these processes, the braze metal, solder, or an adhesive is applied to the joint in liquid state while the materials to be joined remains in a solid state, that is, they do not melt.
