Abstract
In large steel fabrication industries such as ship building, power plant and petrochemical Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is the one of the most common method for joining of metals. It has various characteristics like high productivity, high mechanical properties, easy of automation, overall lower cost of production makes it first choice for many fabrication processes. Welding input parameters play a very significant role in determining the quality of a weld joint. The joint quality can be defined in terms of properties such as weld-bead geometry, mechanical properties and distortion. The main emphasis of this review is to study the effect of different input parameter of MIG welding on the weld quality. The research will be applied Taguchi Method on a SA213 pressure steel specimen of dimensions 40 mm tube diameter, Which have following interested parameters: various arc current, arc voltage and welding rotary drive speeds. The experiment was carried out in the following aspects: destructive and Non destructive analysis. Finally we concluded that in this project investigation the AMPS-140, VOLT-18 & Rotary Drive Speed- 20 rpm is the best parameter for tube weld with 4mm wall thickness tube to obtain the good weldment state. According to the Taguchi optimization the optimized parameter value for Hardness 4mm wall thickness tube is AMPS-140, VOLT-18 & Rotary Drive Speed- 20 rpm.
